404 error - first post

hi there gang.

this is my first post so please excuse my ignorance.

I have managed to set up my site, but cannot see any pages other than the index.

I have tried to look at the .htaccess file, but nothing appears in the file. I am using A Small Orange Hosting.

This is the site

http://www.nicholasridley.com/textpattern/

the 404 error

http://www.nicholasridley.com/textpattern/article/2/hello-world

I can also not find ADMIN login which is strange?

Please help !

thanks

Re: 404 error - first post

Well, how I see it your site works well, except clean urls. With messy-urls articles are showing correctly. I only wonder why you have installed Textpattern inside _textpattern_-subdir, but afterall, it’s your own choise. See:

http://www.nicholasridley.com/textpattern/index.php?id=2
http://www.nicholasridley.com/textpattern/index.php?id=1

Do you have in .htaccess-file:

#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]
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
</IfModule>
#php_value register_globals 0

PS. The admin-panel does work well. It’s located in http://www.nicholasridley.com/textpattern/textpattern/

Cheers!

Re: 404 error - first post

You’ll have to change the .htaccess in your (first) textpattern directory, that won’t affect anything above it.

Re: 404 error - first post

there is no httaccess file in the text pattern directory…only the host directory. Is what you meant?

thanks

Re: 404 error - first post

It should be in the directory your site is in. So in your case it should be in http://www.nicholasridley.com/textpattern/. If it’s not there, that is probably the cause of your problem. .htaccess sometimes doesn’t get uploaded because some ftp clients don’t show this file. You can probably change the settings to make it visible, and then just upload it to http://www.nicholasridley.com/textpattern/. Edit: what I meant is probably something like /public_html/textpattern/.
