    Hi all

    I have a weird problem. I have a clean 2.3.3 installation. FURLS are ON and my htaccess already setup. I created two test pages and tried to load them. The urls in the browser are correct but only the home page is loading.

    It's not a caching issue.

    I've had lots of experience installing and using MODx and have never experienced this before.

    Thanks in advance!
    John

      To begin with, you should always create a not-found page and use it in the error_page System Setting. That's the first thing I do after a fresh installation, that way it's much less confusing if I'm getting a 404 error.

      Are you sure that the .htaccess file with the rewrite rules is in the MODX installation's root?

      If it's in a subdirectory (domain.com/subdir/) did you edit the RewriteBase line in the .htaccess file (/subdir/)? If it's a subdomain (domain.com or sub.domain.com) then the RewriteBase needs to be left at /.

      And just to make sure, are you using Apache, or some other web server?

        Is it a temporary URL issued by the host?

          Thanks folks, I got this sorted out. I had the htaccess file in the root, not in the folder where modx was installed.
