CentOS 6.5 & Wordpress: 404 Error, Invalid rewrite directive

[MatGeek]

Hello

I'm not new to Litespeed. Already using a 1 Core license.

Just finished configuring OpenLitespeed on CentOS 6.5 Server x86 (using Litespeed RPM CentOS 6) for a friend of mine.

Virtual Host Name : mysite.com
Domain: mysite.com
Aliases: www.mysite.com
Member Virtual Host Root: /home/mysite/

Wordpress files (for example wp-config, index.php, ....) are under /home/mysite/public_html

Using inside rewrite tab:

RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

OpenLitespeed is generating errors:
ERRORInvalid rewrite directive: RewriteBase /

I tried again, this time moving whole content to /home/mysite/public_html/wordpress and changing rewrite to

RewriteBase /wordpress/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

Again the nasty error + 404 error page but, doing a simple:

touch /home/mysite/public_html/phpinfo.php

nano /home/mysite/public_html/phpinfo.php

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

I see that server recognize php files.

Nasty openlitespeed binary ?

AFAIK "RewriteBase" is not supported in the rewrite rules. remove that for a starters and try changing the last rewrite rule to the directory that holds wordpress

Maybe U need:
chown -R mysite:mysite /home/mysite/
chmod -R 755 /home
