Knowledgebase not Functional

[samuch]

I setup a knowledgebase and was following the guide for migrating from version 3 to 4 but the knowledgebase does not quite work. When I go to the directory where I put the two files, index.php and .htaccess, it shows some text but it loads no graphics. Then when I go to upload the .xml file it gives me a white page.

The Apache error log shows that it tried to parse the xml but thought it was invalid. Also, as I click the links on the index.php page I notice the address up top starts getting longer filling up with index.php/index.php/index.php/index.php and so on.

I experienced the same problem.... removed the "optional" .htaccess file and it worked.

Thanks, itatot.

samuch, the .htaccess is there mainly to provide url redirection so that you can use easier / prettier urls. Sometimes people have problems with the mod_rewrite stuff, but everything should work fine without it.
