      Have you renamed the ht.access file to .htaccess ?

          I've enabled the friendly urls, I deleted the cache folder manually, and have included the line in the <head> <base href="[[!++site_url]]" />.
          Any other suggestions?
          Thanks!

            What version of MODX are you using?

            With your FURL on and htaccess renamed:

            Does your home page show? What about when you click a link to an inner page, what happens then?
            Is your Rewrite Engine part uncommented? Like so:
            RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /


            If that is done or doesn't work:
            If your installation is not in the server root you will need to amend the RewriteBase line from “RewriteBase /” to “RewriteBase /folder/”

            If that doesn't work try replacing those two lines in the htaccess with this:

            <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
	Options +FollowSymlinks
	RewriteEngine On
	RewriteBase /
</IfModule>

              MODx helps me stay in the white

              MODX version is 2.1.5, I changed the lines in. Htaccess, but friendly URLS do not work.
              Can a MODX installation error?
              thanks

                @Eric E & @whitesphynx - yes the site works just fine, no problems there, it's when we enable FURLs everythings goes down. On our deploy server it works with FURLs (fedora) but after a migration to production server (redHat) the site works but the FURLs don't. We're starting to thing that something went wrong with the migration, but it's very hard to spot where is the problem. database maybe.
