Topic: Permalinks - when rewrite mod problem

[Nate1]

Hello,

I'm configuring a service for many word press installs, (First time) I have the server operating, db etc, word press is working (DNS not pointing there yet) however the permalinks won't run, Ive attempted modifying the rewrite mod - however that causes a redirect permanently issue.

Ive tried a few things, AllowOveride=All, variant htaccess mods (htaccess configuration from here: https://gist.github.com/oazabir/5637290)

Ive also tried my previous htaccess entries, which also don't work
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

How do I fix this issue? enabling the rewrite mod causes the problem, for a small period I had other pages responding on the Routed path but all the resources where producing 301s, meaning the loading appeared to take forever, but was continuously loading.

Also Is this something I can modify at the server level instead at the website directory (all sites instead of each site)

Thanks

A large number (I suspect all) static resources are responding with 301s

e.g.
GET layerslider.transitions.js?ver=5.3.2
301 Moved Permanently

which loops continuously, is that caused by the entry in the .hraccess file.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(^/wp-.*)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !\.(css|js|html|htm|rtf|rtx|svg|svgz|txt|xsd|xsl|xml|asf|asx|wax|wmv|wmx|avi|bmp|class|divx|doc|docx|exe|gif|gz|gzip|ico|jpg|jpeg|jpe|mdb|mid|midi|mov|qt|mp3|m4a|mp4|m4v|mpeg|mpg|mpe|mpp|odb|odc|odf|odg|odp|ods|odt|ogg|pdf|png|pot|pps|ppt|pptx|ra|ram|swf|tar|tif|tiff|wav|wma|wri|xla|xls|xlsx|xlt|xlw|zip)$ [NC]
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
#RewriteRule .* - [L]

Rewrite is working, but resources are not being loaded - due to 301.

Also I cannot access admin when mod_rewrite is enabled
http://www.example.com/wp-admin/plugins.php

SOLVED: So issue is:
Ive moved the site from a server where no-www redirects to www.
The New Server defaults to www redirects to no-www
I had no alias in my hosts file to tell domain.com to point to the new server, once setting this up works fine.

From the htaccess file linked here, needed to enable a few modules then comment option 1
# Rewrite "www.example.com -> example.com".
and enable
# Rewrite "example.com -> http://www.example.com".
