  Hey,
  I m trying WordPress on my pc. I installed correctly, after that when I imported some posts from another WordPress blog, I thought to change the permalink to “month and name” from default.
  After I changed and I m trying to access the post by clicking it. Then I receive following error

  Title: 404 Not Found

  Not Found

  The requested URL /2011/04/name-of-my-post/ was not found on this server.

  Someone please tell me what is wrong…

  We do not provide support for local installs at wordpress.COM. We provide support only for free hosted blogs on this multiuser blogging platform. The correct forum to go to for support with a local install is here > http://wordpress.ORG/support/
