Re: headache free restructuring?
I’m not sure it’s supposed to go there. I usually add it at the very bottom:
#DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
#Options +FollowSymLinks
#Options -Indexes
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
#RewriteBase /relative/web/path/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} !^$
RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>
Redirect permanent /article http://mysite.com/blog

oh sorry i forgot to mention that i removed it immediately the first time and the problem never ironed out. if my server was still running i would’ve re-installed my sql file and all the ftp files. funny how these things happen the day you’re ready to deploy the site you’ve been working on for 2 months.

Re: headache free restructuring?
Is it possible that the error was related to the server problems, and not to the redirect in .htaccess?

well it seemed to me like the server needed some sort of cache clearing if that exists. i just don’t know much about these things operate. the ftp side of things was operating fine throughout the whole problem though. but alas it’s now grinded to a halt so maybe your theory is correct

the site is back but the blog page is still dead

Re: headache free restructuring?
alas it gets weirder and weirder.
1. setup a test site in a subdirectory to help troubleshoot
2. the blog page was still broken
3. re-exported my database from the localhost using “SQL” and save as file in phpmyadmin to see if that got corrupted on export
4. re-imported it into my test site and the blog page started working
5. re-imported it into my main site and the blog page is still broken.
for some reason though, i can’t run the test page separate from the main page. whenever i try to adjust the site address in the admin panel the two keep fighting with each other.

Re: headache free restructuring?
Your menu points to http://www.mrtunes.ca/txptest/blog/, could that have something to do with it?
Edit: also http://mrtunes.ca/?s=blog is working. Are your URL scheme settings correct?

my menu goes to /txptest/blog because when trying to do this test site the main site and txptest were fighting with each other. since it happens to work, i just left it so i could get some rest.
?s=blog doesn’t really make any sense though, cause on my localhost, and on the txptest site, /blog works. i’m moving hosts soon so maybe a fresh server will do me right?

Re: headache free restructuring?
Just a thought: you don’t happen to have a real directory ‘blog’ that is getting in the way?
