Hello,
I am trying to use 'pretty' urls within my site and can't get anything to work.
Every tutorial I have followed doesn't seem to work either.
I am using the latest C5 instance (5.4) but every time I try to enable 'pretty' urls, I receive the input not specified error in my browser.
Any solutions to this yet?
Thanks!
Dennis

Yeah I am sure .htaccess files work on my server. I am using them with other sites on this server

Did you create the .htaccess file using the information in the Dashboard/Site Settings? What is the exact error message that Apache is throwing in the logs? Also, the permissions on the .htaccess file must be readable by Apache.

Im on Dreamhost and pretty urls fail spectacularly. It could be your server.

re: .htaccess problems
Have you tested it with a simple password protection ? Some servers have deactivated htaccess
