Textpattern Gives 404 On A Physical, Real Directory
So I just moved servers, and on one of the sites I run TXP, I have a link to a real directory which hosts the popular script, gallery.
When I go to that directory, domain.com/photos/, it gives the TXP 404 error messages.
Suggestions?

Either you’ve modified the TXP .htaccess file or the directory does not exist in the place that you’re referring to.

Unfortunately neither of those are correct. The directory does exist, I’m looking at it through FTP right now, and I’m using the standard .htaccess file that came with textpattern. Just reuploaded and still gives an error.
Weird.

Verify: if the Txp .htaccess file is removed, what happens?

I get an internal server error. It must be something with the script. No worries then, I’ll look into it.
We might end up ditching the whole script as is, so it’s not that big of a deal. I was mainly curious and now this forces me to do it ;)
Thanks for the help.

Maybe I’m totally wrong, but could this FAQ be related and helpful?

Re: Textpattern Gives 404 On A Physical, Real Directory
In an email from Liam:
I’m now doing more work and noticing that all directories I make are causing TXP to display a 404 error. This has to be somethign with me moving to a new server, as it was fine before.
Is there any other info yo can provide?

After you moved installations, did you update the URL and directory preferences in the Admin tab?

Hi,
The URL and username are the same on the new server, it’s just a physically new server. Even most things are the same as well including PHP and their settings.
I’m on a VPS box now, so I have more control over settings, but pretty much everything is the same.
The only thing I can think of that is different, is the new server runs mysql 5, vs the machine I was on before had 4. Both systems had/have php5 and are running phpsuexec. Both have/had apache 1.x and CentOS.
Off the top of my head, that’s all I can think of.
*Edit, I spoke too soon. All new directories do appear to be working now. Not sure what was causing the issue before, or maybe I was just losing my mind for a second. I’m still getting the issue with that one directory, but I suppose I can leave it.
Sorry about this.
