Permalinks won’t work

    Greetings!

    Here are my settings:

    WordPress 1.5.1.1
    Apache 2.0
    Suse 9 Enterprise Server
    PHP 4.3.4

    I have a valid .htaccess file. I’ve made sure that mod_rewrite is loaded.

    In my httpd.conf file, I have this:
    ———————————
    # forbid access to the entire filesystem by default
    <Directory />
    Options None
    AllowOverride None
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    </Directory>

    <Directory /wordpress/>
    AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

    # use .htaccess files for overriding,
    AccessFileName .htaccess
    # and never show them
    <Files ~ “^\.ht”>
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
    </Files>

    ————

    But when I try the default permalink example, the page is not found. If I add /index.php/ to the front of the permalink it works, but I don’t really want that.

    Any ideas? Does my httpd.conf look right?

    Thanks!

    Is your WordPress installation really in /wordpress and not something like /var/www/blah/blah/wordpress or /home/....../wordpress ?

    It may be, in which case this is just an annoying silly question, but even silly things are worth checking.

    oh … crap … the silly simple things are what get you. Of course it is not in /wordpress except relative to the docroot. I’ll make that change and see if it helps. thanks!

    Correcting the path did the trick. Thanks!
