404 not found , the requested URL <<url name>> not found on this server in wordpress
If it is a fresh install of web server it is possible that .htaccess rules are not allowed by default. To fix that, edit you httpd.conf (usually it is in /etc/apache2), find
<Directory "path/to/your/document/root"> # .... AllowOverride None # ....</Directory>and change
AllowOverride Noneto
AllowOverride AllThen restart your web server and try again.
Reset your desired permalink from wordpress admin area and add this code in htaccess:
# BEGIN WordPress<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404RewriteEngine OnRewriteBase /RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-fRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-dRewriteRule . /index.php [L]</IfModule>Now, check with blog posts and pages.
Thanks,
