Problems with the original Processwire htaccess file

[franciccio-ITALIANO]

I converted the htaccess.txt file provided with processwire-master to .htaccess, but when I did so, the installation wizard would not start. Instead, the following page appeared:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator at webmaster@permacultura-cattolica.it to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

So I renamed htaccess and the installation process was completed, but now this error message appears in my browser on every ABOUT page of the blog:


Not Found

The requested URL was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.




I wonder what I need to write in the htaccess file to make the server like it. I should note that the installation was completed without any problems using Sopeiaculos with the current server settings. So the server supports Processwire. I had to uninstall and proceed with manual installation because Sopeiaculos installed a blank site instead of the blog.

Hi,

well, all this sounds quite normal, when starting an install process, if the htaccess file is named .htaccess the web site will try to work as if it were installed which is not the case
in the contrary, wuen the install process is running/finished this file needs to be renamed as .htaccess with the starting period else it won't work as the server won't find it as a genuine .htaccess file
il you have a look à the install.php file code, you'll see when the mutation takes place 🙂

have a nice day
