I do the server aspect of the site and our old web designer has left.  I have moved the domain from a linux server to a windows server.  All went well.

Everything works, the main page opens without a problem.  I can see everything there.  The problem comes when I click on any link.  The link is a path (/subdomain/sub-subdomain
) and it says
404 - File or directory not found.
The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable

The problem I have is when I go into the “General Configuration” and add the value of index.php to the “Name of your site’s index page” I then can go to sub pages.

The problem I am wondering is it doesn’t name that entry on the linux server.

The URLs are http://www.domainname.com/subdomain/sub-subdomain
and now they are
http://www.domainname.com/index.php/subdomain/sub-subdomain

Thank you for any information you can give me.

PS: I have the entire directory as read/write for testing purposes.  The domain is only accessable from inside our network.[/quote]

Hi Chris,

It sounds as if mod_rewrite was being used on the linux server to remove index.php from the URLs and a rewriting module may not be available to you now. Are you using Apache on Windows or IIS? Do the links work with index.php replaced as the “Name of your site’s index page”? If so, then that is fine - it is the default on installation of EE.

Cheers
