htaccess doesnt work once uploaded to server

[eluser]wowdezign[/eluser]
I used to have the same problem until I found out how to set the "Rewrite base". I don't know if that is what's wrong with your s or not, but I work on a local server and then upload to a production server so on the local one I have something like:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase/foldername/www/

But then on the production server it changes to something like:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

Hope that helps.
