404 Error on site

Kirby 2 Solved ✅
1

Hi,

I’ve been using Kirby successfully on localhost to build and test my website over the last few weeks, but today when I uploaded it to my domain I could only access the home page - every other page gave me a 404 error

I’ve had a look around the kirby forums for similar issues and it seems like it has something to do with my .htaccess or config.php file, but I’m not 100% confident i know what I’m doing with this.

Currently in my .htaccess there is

RewriteEngine on

# Do not remove this line, otherwise mod_rewrite rules will stop working
RewriteBase /

and in config:

c::set('rewrite', false);
c::set('panel.rewrite', false);

Is this right? Can anyone offer some help to a rookie?

Thanks a lot
: )

You have URL rewriting turned off. Here is how those 2 files look by default:

click on the links to see the full files, do not copy paste from here

htaccess:

config:

How did the URLs look when you had the site on localhost?

Oh ok cheers man. I didn’t have all of that in my .htaccess
Just to be sure, where should this .htaccess file be located?

On localhost the urls were simple - ie. www/projects/projectname

In your project folder;

.htaccess
/kirby
/panel
index.php
/assets
/content
/site
/thumbs
etc.
