Recently I had to move one of my blogs to another hosting account. I moved all files and then did upload a mysql backup. Blog was working but if you click on a post or category you get a 404 error.

I haven't changed anything.

Permalink Settings is /%post_id%/%category%/%postname%.php

Also it has a .htaccess file.

whats the reason for this ? here's the link,

Hard Cover Books

Basically Only the home page is opening. All other internal links are not working returning a 404 error.

Well Finally got it fix by another member of WHT. mod_rewrite was not enabled in my VPS. Good lesson for me buying a unmanged VPS without knowing what to do.

Ben Thomas from btcentral.org.uk helped me to get it fix. I have to thank him for saving me from this nightmare.
