Hi t-p,
Thank you for you help. I reset everything back to default, all files being in the root folder.
No .htaccess file existed, so I uploaded one that shown in the article you referenced, http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Using_Permalinks.
The code I placed in the file is as follows
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
I then went back to the settings > Permalinks, and select the first one, Plain. I click on Save. The page says my Permalink structure was updated. I then go look at the contents of the .htaccess file and notice that the code changed to the following
# BEGIN WordPress
# END WordPress
If I go back and try to select another setting for the the permalinks, then I continue to get a white page.
I have a ticket open with my service provider, maybe it is a server setting.
