@kmohammedca

On Apache, a file called .htaccess controls how WordPress handles rewrites, so you’ll need to make sure that file exists. WordPress can auto-generate this file for you. To do this, you’d need to login to your WordPress Admin CP (i.e. ./wp-admin/), click on permalinks and just click “save.”

A new .htaccess file will be generated and as long as everything else is properly configured, that should take care of any permalink issues.

@kmohammedca facing the same problem here.

Did you get it solved?
