It seems pretty weird, the only thing I can think of is that something
changed with our Apache configuration?
Well, has it? :) Do you run this server yourself, or are you at the
mercy of some diabolical sysadmin who changes things without notice? If
diabolical sysadmin, ask them what they've changed...
What usually prevents users from
being able to use the /index.php/$1 configuration? What keeps Apache from
attempting to recognize index.php as a directory?
If PHP's configured as a CGI or FastCGI module, or apache2filter, this
type of URL usually returns a 404 Not Found error.
If PHP's configured as apache or apache2handler it should work.
Special:Version will display the server API configuration that your PHP
is set up as; you can also make a script that runs the phpinfo()
function to dump a lot of configuration information.
