.htaccess

I have 1and1 as my host.

I believe that my .htaccess is causing problems for my site.
I click on a category and it gives me a 404 error. Can someone help?

rachacha.org

htaccess file:

#
# Only upload if you want to use the Search Engine Friendly urls.
#

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^product-([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/.*.html&sort=([a-z]+) product.php?cid=$1&id=$2&sort=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^product-([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/.*.html&view=(.*) product.php?cid=$1&id=$2&view=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^product-([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/.*.html product.php?cid=$1&id=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^product-([0-9]+)/.*.html&sort=(.*) product.php?cid=$1&sort=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^product-([0-9]+)/.*.html&view=(.*) product.php?cid=$1&view=$2 [L]

RewriteRule ^product-([0-9]+)/.*.html product.php?cid=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^listing-([0-9]+)/.*.html listing.php?sid=$1 [L]

try (temporarily) renaming the .htaccess file and see if you still get the 404

Still get 404s

Then I would guess that it's not the .htaccess

are you sure the file you are requesting is where the it is supposed to be? and named correctly etc...?

rachacha.org

loads ok for me...

is the the page that you are getting a 404?

It happens when you click on a category!

h**p://rachacha.org/product-23/Communications.html

In your web root directory (www or html docs) make sure there is a sub-directory named "product-23" make sure in that directory is a file called "Communications.html"

file names are case sensitive

No luck! I had attempted this as a solution.

This is how it turned out.
It all works now!
Thanks all!!!
