The problem turned out to be a missing path.php file in the root directory.

Thank You.

Whoops.

All my archives not working.
http://www.miceland.com/index/weblog/archives/

and individual posts

http://www.miceland.com/weblog/back_from_the_grave/

still not working.

Here is the path that is working

Mice, you need to decide if you are going to remove your index.php using an .htaccess fix.

We don’t officially support the use of .htaccess to remove index.php. But you can find instructions in the EEWiki in how to do that.

Your archives would be http://www.miceland.com/index.php/weblog/archives/

You also need to change your links to make things work that way.

Make sense or not?

Is this what you mean?

I don’t see anything bad about this.

Seems do-able.

Is there any alternative though? How could I make this installation regulation?

Maybe this information is lost when you upgrade?

I think maybe this might have been set up this way and was ruined when I upgraded, not knowing it was set up this way?

If it worked before?  It pretty much had to be setup that way.  And while it’s not officially supported, a lot of folks (including me) remove index.php.  Part of the reason it isn’t supported is that whether or not it can be removed will depend in part on how your server is setup, which EE has no control over.  But if it works, it’s not a big deal to run it that way.

However- the link you want to look at is this one. 

Make sense?

I am now convinced that is the way it was set up.

I remember you asked me that first off and I incorrectly said no.

Is it possible these .htaccess files are backed up somewhere?

-mice

It’s possible they’re still there- some ftp utilities won’t show files with the . prefix.  Though obviously it’s not working!  Make sure you’ve got ftp set to show hidden files.  But it’s really easy to create a new one as well- just take a look at the wiki- copy/save as a text file (I use notepad for that).  If it’s wrong, you’ll likely through 500 errors.  Just delete/replace and try again.

I have added the .htaccess file with all my weblog groups but My links are still very horked up.

Sorry, I still need help.

Hi, mice, I checked your site - you’re still calling “index” and not “index.php”.  index.php is working.  I would recommend, if you need help removing index, a new post in the How To forum since your initial problems from the upgrade are resolved.

Thank you!

Yes. Ok I will do that.
