I have a problem with my directory. My directory is at http://www.dwebmaster.info . When i try to click a category (ex. communities) i get an error: "
Not Found

The requested URL /communities/ was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."



Do you know what is wrong here? The strange thing is that i see fine the categories at the ACP. Please help me!
Thanks in advance!

Seems like URL rewriting is not working on your server.
Look, if you take a regular link like:http://www.dwebmaster.info/index.php?c=2
it is working.

Make sure you have a .htaccess file in the root folder of your phpLD installation. Edit the file and make sure there are some commands.
If you have the files, you can either contact your hoster and ask them to enable URL rewriting for your domain, or turn it off in your admin panel.

Yes, but it was working fine yesterday. Today i get this error. Do you think it's my host?

Edit: Ok, problem solved. I reuploaded the .htaccess in the root folder of my phpLD installation and it works fine again.

Thank you Boby!

The same problem happened again yesterday. I reupluaded the .htaccess and everything worked fine again.
But what causes this problem? Why this happened again?

Make sure the file has no writing permissions so you can exclude someone doing fun.
Also, make sure noone else has access to your FTP/Cpanel (ie: change all passwords).

If it's still happening, contact your hoster.

If you mean the .htaccess it has 644 permissions. Is it good?

If you can, try 444 but most of the hoster don't allow that and you're "forced" to use 644. But it should be more than enough ;)

Maybe some action i do makes this problem. I thought it was validation but works after validation fine...
Anyway, thanks for helping!
