I have to type in the entire URL to get to my home page and then the links do not work.
frog.k9huey.com/index.php
frog.k9huey.com Does Not work
This is a fresh install with a brand new sub domain I just created.
I thought I would give Frog a try. It installed quickly and easily.

Do you have any ideas why it would do this?

  • It this a fresh install of Frog 0.9.4 or 0.9.5 RC1?
  • What PHP version are you using?
  • What DB version are you using?
  • Did you activate .htaccess and did you update the RewriteBase to “/”? (since your site lives in the root)
  • Do other (non-frog) urls on the same subdomain work?

0.9.4

What PHP version are you using?
PHP4 Disabled – PHP5 enabled

What DB version are you using?
MySQL 5.0.41

Did you activate .htaccess and did you update the RewriteBase to “/”? (since your site lives in the root)

I changed the _.htaccess to .htaccess
Is that all you have to do to activate it?

I just now changed the line RewriteBase to ‘RewriteBase /’
Without the ‘ of course

Do other (non-frog) urls on the same subdomain work?
I will try this last one when I get home tonight.

No. The default rewrite base looks like this:

RewriteBase /frog/

mvdkleijn advises you to chnage it to

RewriteBase /

I usually do //, so I guess both work.

I tried RewriteBase / and RewriteBase //

I made a new index.html file and removed the index.html and index.php and tried just frog.k9huey.com and the site loaded just fine.

I forgot to finish.

So something is still wrong but I am just not sure what.
