Wordpress MU on a VPS - permalinks leading to 404 - Not Found -page. Help!

Hi,

I recently purchased my first VPS which is runing Centos-5, Lighttpd, Kloxo control panel. I installed Wordpress MU there and everything else is working good excpect when I click to any of my blog posts permalinks (or Archives, Categories or Pages), my browser tells me everytime 404 - Not Found. You can check it out here: http://testblog.blogiskewl.com/

What could be the problem? Is there something I need to tweak in lighttpd.conf file?

 

uh is mod rewrite enabled? turn off perma links and if it works with the ?p=3 style, its the URL rewriting screwing it up.
yeah, lighttpd needs some special attention for permalinks

ah yes.. I turned off permalinks in Wordpress backend and now they seem to work.

thanks for the link!

 

ok, solved the problem by installint Apache instead of ligthttpd and permalinks are working now as it should.

 

haha... lighttpd didn't use htaccess you must edit lighttpd.conf to add rewrite rule. search at google and you'll find out.

 

Strange... when I switched to Apache, my website (http://blogiskewl.com) goes to some sort of index page now....

it worked ok for a while, but now this..

is this normal when switchin from lighttpd to apache?

 

It's not normal. try restarting apache. Also check the A records in your domain panel.

 

Ok, now it started to work as normal even though I didn't do pretty much anything to it

Good
