removed index.php now all pages 404
I added this code to my .htaccess file to get rid of index.php, but now all the pages 404 (the hyperlinks are mapped to the correct url)
# BEGIN WordPress
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
/IfModule
# END WordPress
i set up my permalinks using http://1.1.1.1/%postname%/
what are the next steps in order to troubleshoot this issue?
what is the default permalink for me to revert it back to when it had index.php in the url?
