    I have a modx 2.5.6 install but friendly urls are giving a 404 error for public/index.php

    I have the following directory structure

    core
    public/assets
    public/connectors
    public/manager

    .htaccess file is in the public folder

    If i browse to http://localhost/test/public/ i get my home page. I have <base href="[(site_url)]"></base> in my template and my .htaccess file looks like this

    Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /public


    # The Friendly URLs part
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1[L,QSA]

    http://localhost/test/public/home or http://localhost/test/public/about give 404.

    Help please, i've already tried dozens of suggestions in other threads.

    thanks

          Do you have this tag (with the exclamation point) in the head section of all templates:

          <base href="[[!++site_url]]" />
