WordPress site will not change permalinks
-
I have mentioned this before, but never truly tried to test things out.
Tonight, I deleted /opt/jaredbusch
dropped the database and the user form mariadb.
and started over.I did a clean download of wordpress (which is still 3.9.2 FYI.
I upgraded to 4.0.
I change permalinks to date & name
I clicked on the default Hello world posts and got a 404.
so i made a test post.
same result.
They both show up on the default page though.
-
I am obviously missing something because daerma.com works just fine with the permalinks changed and it is on the same server.

Is your .htaccess configured. and is SEO friendly url configured in wordpress (I think it's defualt now though).
-
There is no .htaccess in the /opt/jaredbusch directory.
There is no .htaccess in the /opt/daerma.com directory either and that site works.
same for /opt/wolf-peak -

There is no setting for this in 3.9.2 or 4

Here is the directory structure

Oh FFS...
Problem resolved.
Issue was in httpd.conf
When I very very first set up the web server, I had changed the default path from /var/www/html to /opt/jaredbusch
The default settings in httpd.conf disable rewrites apparently. put it back to /var/www/html and jaredbusch.com works. This is why all the other sites worked.

Ah, That's why you didn't need .htaccess because it was doing that inside the main config..

Yes, so now I just need to look into general security settings and such.
