  • Oh gosh, now I’m embarrassed. The .htaccess file WAS there (when I re-hacked the finder), but the MacOs finder added “.txt” extension to it. I changed that, uploaded, and now Permalinks work!

    Still, it’s nice to know that I could have just created the file from scratch with the supplied code, as you mentioned above.

    Thanks for the quick response.

    Hi. I am coming up with the same problem. I cannot see the .htaccess file on my server database (with invisible files showing). Additionally, I’ve confirmed that its not there with my server admin.

    Also, I’ve downloaded a new copy of WP2.5.1, looking for the .htaccess file, with no luck. And thinking that I couldn’t see it b/c of invisible files (I’m on MacOS 10.4.1) I even hacked the finder, showing invisible files. The file does not appear to be there.

    So…I’ve noticed on several FAQs and in this thread, that WP should write the file for me? It doesn’t appear to do this, either. I suppose my options are creating a document titled “.htaccess” and c/p the code supplied via the Permalinks dashboard setting?

    What am I doing wrong?

    thanks, Michael
