After upgrading to 1.4.5, my pretty URLs are broken to my photos.

For example, it used to be: mysite.com/gallery/trip1/IMG_0001.jpg

Now it's: mysite.com/gallery/index.php?album=trip1&image=IMG_0001.jpg

Thoughts?

Hm, found it. For some reason my mod_rewrite was unchecked in options>general.

mod_rewrite checked is working for me, however I see this:
`Setup did not detect a working mod_rewrite facility.`

Not sure why the error, since it's working...?

Also, I noticed my .htaccess is from 1.4.4. Is there a way to rebuild htaccess?

Setup should have told you that the file needed upgrade. Perhaps the file permissions prevented it from doing so. You should simply remove your `.htaccess` file and re-run setup. The 1.4.5 `.htaccess` file is much simplified.

As to the error, Setup attempts to use a rewrite url to link to a local script. If that script does not run then it presumes mod_rewrite is not working. So maybe there was an error somewhere in running that script.

Rerunning setup worked. But was giving me an error that it already existed. I clicked the button to replace it, and it wouldn't clear the error.

So then I deleted my .htaccess, and it gave me an error that it was missing. So I clicked the button to copy and it wouldn't clear the error.

Finally, I ran `touch .htaccess` and `chmod 777 .htaccess` and it worked.

Not sure why your setup wasn't able to do that for me, either permissions or a bug, but I'm all set now it looks like.

(and yes, you're right, a dramatically smaller .htaccess file in 1.4.5)

Sometimes server don't let Zenphoto do what it wants, it's a config thing.

You should of course not leave the permissions at 777 for anything. Generally the .htaccess file is 444.

Thanks. I have changed it to 444.
