# Permalink structure doesn't change

 * Hi all,
 * I’ve created a multisite network, using sub-domains and the domain mapping plugin.
   Everything works nice ([http://lauretum.net/](http://lauretum.net/) and [http://lauretum.org](http://lauretum.org)
   both live there) EXCEPT changing the permalink structure.
 * Changing the permalink structure seems to work within WordPress – it updates 
   without errors and the links in the menu’s change from /?p=123 to /page-title
   but clicking those links generates error: “The requested URL /sample-page/ was
   not found on this server.”
 * I assume there is an issue with the .htaccess file, but I don’t know what. The
   file is writable by the server and contains:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   
       # uploaded files
       RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
   
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
       RewriteRule ^ - [L]
       RewriteRule . index.php [L]
       ```
   
 * Any suggestions? Also, I’m lost as where WordPress stores the permalink infomation
   for other (sub-)domains.

 * Your .htaccess file looks right. Is mod_rewrite enabled and correctly configured?

 * [@tim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tim/) I think _AllowOverride Fileinfo
   Options_ did the trick!
 * Thanks!
