migration wordpress to local machine does not work with all broken URLs except frontpage

August 6, 2022 by Magenaut

I installed XAMPP on my Win 10 PC and migrated my wordpress website onto my PC. After migration, only the frontpage works. The other URLs would get a “Not Found”. The frontpage is only partially working but I see a page nevertheless.

XAMPP is NOT cross-platform. There is XAMPP for Windows, XAMPP for Linux, for Mac and for Solaris, but each pack contains different pieces of software, runs differently with different performance, etc. (cross-platform means that you take the exact same piece of software and it runs the same way on different platforms … like Azureus used to be: a jar that you could use the same way)
