I have an odd problem. I'm using my .htaccess file to tell specific pages that have no extension to be read as PHP. But recently it just stopped working. The exact same site directory and htaccess file uploaded to another server works just fine. So something must have changed on the server where it's *not* working - but I can't think of what.

Here's my htaccess file

CODE

php_value arg_separator.output &
php_flag session.use_trans_sid off

DirectoryIndex home/

ErrorDocument 404 /404.html

<FilesMatch "^contact$">
    ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

<FilesMatch "^home$">
    ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

<FilesMatch "^about$">
    ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

<FilesMatch "^work$">
    ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

Basically what happens is that I get a 404 page for all the pages (contact, home, about, work)

Did someone change the main server configuration files?

What are those? Or where are those?

The server is on dreamhost, Maybe I should contact them =/
