Not identifying .htaccess file (unable to remove /index.php from URL)

[eappleby]

WP Version: 6.4.3
PG4WP Version: 3.3.1

Starting with fresh install of Wordpress and when I update the permalink and when I update the URL from /index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/ to /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/ , it says "The requested URL was not found on this server."

Do you know why that is?

This doesn't sound related to pg4wp, but rather to your .htaccess file

The htaccess file is autogenerated by Wordpress. The issue is that when I change the permalink structure from anything that doesn’t start with /index.php, it says that the URL is not found on the server. This is a fresh install with no changes other than the permalink structure. Are you not able to replicate that issue?

This was my issue. Sorry about that. For reference, I used this to correct it: https://stackoverflow.com/a/42736732/1698908 (small typo in my .conf file)
