Server Compatibility Godaddy

OK, I have no idea what happened, but now the default .htaccess in 4.0.7 is working perfectly. Weird. Nevermind.

John Einselen, thanks a BUNCH for posting that. Just had to set up TXP on GoDaddy and it worked perfectly. I’m running TXP 4.2.0.

Alex007 · 2009-09-19 10:10:07

I have just installed 4.2.0 on godaddy and i am having problems using clean URL’s, it gives me the godaddy page not found.

When i change the Permanent link mode to ?messy it works ok, except i dont want messy urls ;(

Does anyone know how to get clean url’s working in godaddy? do i need to update my .htaccess file?

Any help would be appreciated.

If it’s not the one that came with TXP 4.2 then yes.

Also Godaddy’s Apache configuration might be something to look at. I think you can read that in Admin > Diagnostics. I’m not sure how to troubleshoot further when looking at Apache stuff, or if that’s even the culprit.

Thanks for that.

I am using the htaccess file that come with 4.2.0 and still no luck in the diagnostics all it says when i use friendly URLs is

‘Clean URLs are only supported by Apache, use at your own risk’

What help is that! I am guessing it muct be the apache config in godaddy ;(

Anyone else had this problem?

Have you tried the .htaccess provided in this post?
If it doesn’t work with that, please post your diagnostics.

Thanks Els, I have tried http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?pid=153244#p153244 but no luck, it still tells me page not found when i try and go directly to the section e.g. domain.com/blog

Any ideas whats wrong?

This:

Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.0

Clean URLs are designed to work with and tested with Apache, as it says in the diagnostics:

Clean URLs are only supported by Apache, use at your own risk

Partly Messy: Clean urls without mod_rewrite provides an idea for a work-around method if you can define a document for a “Not Found” condition.

Alex007 : you can just switch to Linux server for free!
for this go to your hosting page under your account.

Thanks Blue Dragon

Only if it was that simple! I goto the Hosting page under my account and then to the control panel and i have no option to switch.

Do you know if there is a help page for this?

Log in to your Account Manager.
In the My Products section, select Hosting.

In the Account Details section on the right, click Upgrade/Downgrade Hosting Account.

GoDaddy suggested to me to use a php5.ini file with the same content as the packaged .htaccess – Didn’t work. I can verify again that Page 1’s .htaccess file works AS IS when the TXP 4.2.0 install is at the root (don’t know about inside a blog folder).

Surprisingly, the “RewriteBase / “ line DID NOT need the addition of /title or section/title to deliver clean URLs which I expected to have to do.

Also, went back to using .htaccess instead of php5.ini HUGE thanks! Now if FoodNewsie.com is screwed up, it’s all my own fault. Damn… :)
