Right, this has me stumped.

I cannot get the pretty permalinks to work. They go to 404.

The permalinks are updating, I can see the URL change to each setting as I save them by going to a post, but only the default "p=ID" works.

  • Wordpress is installed under /var/www/html/
  • .htaccess is being created and updated whenever I update the permalinks
  • Owners and Permissions are set to www-data:www-pub and 755/644 (dir/file)
  • AllowOverride All is set in the [my-site].conf file
  • mod_rewrite is enabled
  • apache2 has been restarted (several times).

Any ideas which I've not tried?

... and as per usual, I figure it out as soon as I post the question -.-

Using this answer, I changed apache2.conf under /etc/apache2/.

There is a section towards the bottom talking about the security model. The section Directory /var/www/ needs to be changed from AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All.

I restarted apache and it works.
