WordPress Directory Permalinks

Hi all,

I’m having problems with my permalink structure in firefox. What have I done.
– Installed WP in root/wordpress/
– copied the index.php to my root
– changed the permalinks structure in wp
– changed my site address URL into https://www.mysite.com

When i go to https://www.mysite.com I see mysite.com/wordpress and I get the “page cannot be found” message. However, it does work in Internet explorer.

Please note, that when i click an article “hello world!” the permalink structure does seem to work. The ony place it doens’t work i my root.

.htaccess

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

index.php

<?php
/**
 * Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn't do anything, but loads
 * wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 */

/**
 * Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
 *
 * @var bool
 */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);

/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require('./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');
?>
