Indexhibit Support

I've installed Indexhibit on Dreamhost with the default htaccess and the mod_rewrite change. However, when I try and hit a link, it goes to a 404. If I ditch the pretty links, the links work great.

Any ideas?

...it seems that dreamhost hasn't enabled mod_rewrite, or that it is configured so it doesn't allow you to have clean urls...

Did you contact Dreamhost?

I did contact them -- they said it was something with Indexhibit. I'm not sure if it's the same system, but no other CMS has issues with clean URLs.

Is there something I need to modify in the htaccess?

Billions of people are using Indexhibit on Dreamhost already...it works very well on their servers.

Have you done some searching around this forum for some alternates to the htaccess rules? There are a bunch of threads that could be of help...

Yes. I've looked around and tried nearly everything. The closest I have is that it won't pull up the page, but instead of a 404 it gives me my main page.

Any ideas?

Try, before the "index.php" part in the htaccess file...add an / to it.

1. /index.php

This is the most common adjustment that is needed for this file.

Ok, with Dreamhost it seems to work fine as long as the indexhibit is installed at the root -- subfolders don't like it.

This would normally be fine, but I want to run it in beta while I build it. Any ideas?
