# Previous Posts Not working – Permalink Issue

 * [17 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/previous-posts-not-working-permalink-issue/)
 * I am running 2.7.1 on IIS. The site is working with permalinks only when I use?
   p=xxx format or /index.php/%postname%/ format.
 * I currently have my permalink set to /index.php/%category%/%year%/%monthnum%/%
   postname%/
 * When I am on my home page [http://www.bhargavs.com](http://www.bhargavs.com),
   At the bottom of the page, I have “<< Older Entries” which when I click lands
   on a blank page. When I checked the link for it, it is [http://www.bhargavs.com/index.php/Index.php/page/2/](http://www.bhargavs.com/index.php/Index.php/page/2/).
   Not an extra Index.php in the link.
 * I have tried default theme and other themes but issue remains. The only way I
   was able to get this to work was change the permalinks to /?p=xxx which isn’t
   an option for me.
 * Can someone help me fix this? How can I fix it so that it does not add extra 
   index.php in the link?

 * Ok, I hit the jackpot. I wasn’t looking hard enough?
 * Hope it helps others too.
