Multisite installed on AWS – Permalinks not working

  • This installation began as a Bitnami AMI.
    After install, I configured multisite and got that working, following all of the instructions I found online.
    Next step is to install buddypress, but I need to have “pretty” permalinks in order to do that.
    When I change the WordPress permalink setting I get 404 on all my pages.
    This is what I have in the htaccess file:

    RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    and here is the httpd.conf:

  • Since its a multisite installation, there are already some lines in the .htaccess file according to the n/w configuration settings.

    Should we add these lines after that or before? The contents are mentioned in the first post of this thread.

    Before.

    It should go

    # Fixes
Options +FollowSymlinks

# BEGIN WordPress
[Whatever yours is]
# END WordPress
