Main page links/pages not found on server/404 error

  • Hi All,
    My main page loads but all content/pages/links are not found and coming back with this error.

    Not Found

    The requested URL /about-koolorchids/ was not found on this server.

    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    Solution anybody?

    Thanks Keith

    Found the solution from a post two years ago – Samual B posted the solution as follows!!
    The .htaccess files couldn’t be seen in cpanel/file manager, so I did it through filezilla- located ht.access/ highlighted it and selected edit with notepad/ add the text to the bottom of ht.access and click save, another box pops up to say do you want to over write existing, select yes and job done.
    All is running again!!
    I have paid for my Hosts back up facility, basically it automatically backs up all websites so you can restore to many points!
    I know we can manually download backups and restore but I have done that and it took me over two weeks to solve all issues, it costs ￡28 a year! So think is well worth it if it does what it says on the tin!
    Thanks Samual B/MOD and hope this is of help to someone else!!

    just add the rules
    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress
    to the root .htaccess after the other stuff
