And I just wiped mine. That was some hard work there.

Please, please fix this.

Yep! I’m also with AN Hosting and the problem has magically disappeared for me too. Basetwo: I also edited my “About page” with no problems.

Well, it’s nice to not be alone…
What does one do to get this on the list? The Trac is daunting to a newer user like myself.

Can’t speak for smrtalex, but there’s nothing else in my .htaccess file, aside from the code quoted above.
Although I did try adding
Options +FollowSymLinks
to no avail.
Just to be clear, the 404 is within WP, not coming from Apache, and post links work again when switched back to default.
Thanks for all your help, everyone.

I am having the same problem. I have tried the following:

• Totally fresh WP 2.7 install in a new directory and new SQL database
• htaccess permissions set to 666 and 777 (mine reads the same as above)
• no plugins, templates, widgets etc

The problem occurs immediately after install, right on the “Hello World” post.
Default permalink structure acts as expected, but ANY custom structure leads to 404s.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Oh, and 2.6.x works fine for me too.
