How to fix “object not found" error when using XAMPP and WordPress
Nov.21, 2008 in
WordPress
If you are working on a local WordPress installation using XAMPP and have just changed the permalinks structure, you might come across “object not found” error.
The solution is to turn on mod_rewrite by editing apache/conf/httpd.conf. Just remove the comment in front of the line (around line #118) and restart Apache.
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

if that does not work remeber to check your htaccess file like so:
# from:
#————————-
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
# to:
#————————-
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /xampp/yoursite/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /xampp/yoursite/index.php [L]
# END WordPress
that worked for me, else links start taking me back to the xampp screen.
thanks for the post.
