Thread: domain name change causes .htacces to not work with veiwPages.php

Hi,

I could really use some help. I set the D7 on a test domain then I added the new domain name and pointed it at the sub directory for the installation. I changed the info in the header.inc.php and all seemed well till I tried to access the pages I created for the site. Any reference to viewPage.php would 404. The error was the viewPage.php was not found. I tried to manually type in the true url ../viewPage.php?ID=Invite and it worked.

When I went back and changed back to the original domainname/subdirectory it work again. Very strange. There is something going on with the rewrite rules but I am lost.

Please help!!! any ideas would be most appreciated.

When apache does things you don't understand... check the apache error logs while you try to do what you think should work, but does not.

It usually tells you pretty clearly what the issue is (the error logs).

Apache error logs... not php error logs.
