Have they ever worked? Sounds like maybe your .htaccess file is not being read. Are they enabled in your apache config?

Yes, everything has been working fine for several months. Just noticed it today. I haven't changed anything. It just stopped.

How do I check my apache config?

Why would the .htaccess code box be blank in the dashboard?

thanks :-)

Updates...

First, in the dashboard why would the code window be blank when I check the box to show pretty URLs? It seems Concrete 5 is not generating/showing the necessary .htaccess code.

The site is working without pretty URLs off.

Second, would aphpinfo() page give me some insight into why it is not working?

My server host did move us to a a VMWare virtual server. Could this be it?

Also, I am seeing a lot of errors in the Apache error log that were not there yesterday:

[Thu Sep 30 12:46:22 2010] [error] [client 69.41.14.215] (13)Permission denied: cannot read directory for multi: /home/hardy/domains/hardyinternational.com/public_html/

I have also opened a support ticket with my host.

thanks,

PHP info page

thats an issue your host has to fix,

Got it working.

Some folder permissions were 711. My hosting company directed me to change those to 755 and now friendly URLs are working.

Oddly, the .htaccess code still does not appear in the dashboard, FYI.
