404 after a reinstall

    This is regarding kindiefest.com.

    We had a working BuddyPress installation and then the hosting account got hacked. After some wrangling, we were able to get the domain back and had a pretty recent backup. We now have WordPress back up and running, BuddyPress is installed, and all of the users are there, but all of the BuddyPress links went to a 404. I mucked around a bit in the .htaccess file as suggested here:

    http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/404-on-every-link/

    and now get a 500 error instead. The .htaccess file right now is:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    RewriteBase /wordpress

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

    # END WordPress

    I’d sure appreciate any hints. Thanks!

    Figured it out. The permalinks appeared to be set to not-the-first-option, but once I set it to something else and then back to the not-the-first-option, all seems to be well again.

    strange..there’s gotta be a reason why it wasn’t working before. the 404 error that I was getting was solved by enabling the mod-rewrite module in apache. but anyways, everythings working fine for you too, thats the best part. :)
