Thread:Manual talk:Short URL/Apache/"300 Multiple Choices"/ common basename error - what now?/reply (2)

I know/suspected that but for some strange reason, the with .htaccess in root the wiki was/s not working correctly (error 404 or the common basename and internal errors although the settings seem correct). The one in /w (or /wiki) worked. Of course I deactivated the .htaccess in /w/ and /wiki/ while trying around).

Initially I accidentally installed the wiki in /wiki not /w which used to work so far (only the skins weren't working) but now by trying around and changing back and forth with those friggin .htaccess now some images are not longer displayed and the skins are not working even when I restore the original working .htaccess *argg*.

so with wiki installation in /w/ active (and the initial wiki in /wiki/ deactivated) and .htaccess in  root (the wikis Main pages seem to work, but upon calling articles, the common base name error appears)

this one causes the common base name error on the main page
