hey Lynn,
if you havent figured it out yet,
your .htaccess file in your home directory should look something like this...

if your website is located in a folder in your home directory, change "RewriteBase /" to "RewriteBase /folder/"

"folder" being the folder that your website is located in under your home directory.

that fixed mine and FayeC s problem. hope it fixes yours!

Hello,

it means changing it to the folder where your Joomla root is installed relatively to your Apache's root.

So lets assume your apache root is set to:
/srv/www/htdocs
and your Joomla is installed in:
/srv/www/htdocs/joomla/my-joomla

Then the rewrite base should be set to /joomla/my-joomla

Check the JoomSEF and Apache's documentation for more details.

Best regards,
Michal
