Permalink on localhost not working

  • I have install WordPress with PHP7 and mysql5.7. Everything I thought was working.

    However when I create a page publish it and go to View the page I receive an error “The requested URL wordpress/george-2/ was not found on this server

    Where do I go from here to fix theis problem. I searched through the Forum tried all teh suggestion for .htaccess file and still nothing seems to work. This is the .htaccess file
    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /wordpress/
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /wordpress/ [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    ANy suggestions?

  • Does your apache2 web server configuration include and enable the “mod_rewrite” module ?

    Try and google for “enable mod_rewrite (and whichever web server package you are using)”

    Thanks @rossmitchell!

    Click Wamp Tray Icon→ Apache→ Apache Modules→ “rewrite_module” should be checked.
