The website in question is at http://74.220.215.68/~leemagaz/
Normally I am able to get clean urls to work but cannot with this new site (I already have Paths mod enabled). The above address is a temporary address and will be as such until I am finished building the site and we can then point the domain over here from the location it is currently at. When I run the clean URL test, this is the message I get: "Too many redirects occurred trying to open “http://74.220.215.68/~leemagaz/admin/settings/clean-urls”. This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page."

Would you know if this because of the current temporary address that is being used? (By this I mean it would work if it was, for example, http://www.example.com)

The site is hosted by Webmonster, as is my other site... I have no prob w it working there.

Thanks a lot in advance:)
Christine

How does your .htaccess look?

This is what I have been using to get my other 2 sites to work.
I really hope I can get this to work before we transfer the domain over...

Out there?

Is the Boost module enabled on this site? If not, those lines may be causing the problem.

Other than that, I would try modifying the last block of .htaccess to
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/~leemagaz/.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /~leemagaz/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
