Permalink structure buggy – File not found.

Hi,

I have noticed my site is going to example.com/index.php/services

I wanted to remove the ‘index.php’ so I went to permalinks and changes the custom permalink option to ‘Post name’ as I have done with the other woodmart websites I have worked on.

When this is done I receive an error of ‘Page not found.’ when visiting a page for examples example.com/services.

I have tried the following:
1) Set permalinks to ‘Plain’ and save, then set permalinks to ‘Post name’ and save.
2) Delete ‘.htaccess’ file and repeat step 1
3) Verify ‘.htaccess’ file read write permission is correct
4) Use wordpress standard ‘.htaccess’ file

None of the above have worked for me.

Please can you urgently assist with this.

* When I set permalink option to ‘plain’ the page is accessible however I need this to be set to ‘Post name’

The issue has now been resolved by adding the following rule under Additional nginx directives on the server:

if (!-e $request_filename) {
        set $test P;
    }
    if ($uri !~ ^/(plesk-stat|webstat|webstat-ssl|ftpstat|anon_ftpstat|awstats-icon|internal-nginx-static-location|status_phpfpm)) {
        set $test "${test}C";
    }
    if ($test = PC) {
        rewrite ^/(.*)$ /***/***/index.php?$1;
    }

I am not sure why only this development site has been experiencing this issue as I have previously worked with woodmart on the same server with same configuration and did not experience any issues.
