Found it!

Have not updated apache only wp to 2.8.6, and older wp versions running on other sites hosted on same box aren’t broken.

But, when I made this change it fixed it:

edited httpd.conf:
AllowOverride All

None of this fixed my problem. Only setting permalinks to default makes the page links work, but they are now p=1 etc.

How do I get permalinks to /pagename/ working again?

I just updated to 2.8.6. No other changes.

.htaccess is writeable and wp is changing it when updates to permalinks page is saved.

wp-admin is accessible and works fine so this is not mod_rewrite / rewrite_module.

.htaccess is writeable and wp is updating it but permalinks is broken with upgrade to 2.8.6.

Any help?

I have reset permalinks to default to find that makes links work, but we need permalinks like /pagename/ to work. These are broken with upgrade to 2.8.6.

I compared 2.8 earlier versions to this upgraded 2.8.6 site and .htaccess is same and wp-config.php is the same and wp-settings.php is the same.

Only change has been upgrade to 2.8.6 to break permalinks in other than ?p=1 default which works.

I checked and rewrite_module is loading and up-to-date

What else could it be?
