Peace.
I seem to be having problems with my .htaccess files. I recently installed wordpress, and wanted perma links, which required me to insert a paragraph in my .htaccess . After searching, i couldn't find any .htaccess on my site. So i made a new one in mydomain.com/wordpress/ and whenever i try to edit it, directadmin says "file not found 550 error". I tried ftp too, and i can edit it, but whenever i upload the file, as per usual ftp checks if the file is already in existence (to know if it has to overwrite), and it always says that there is no .htaccess file (even though there is, otherwise how would i be editing the file?).
Directadmin says, when i try to edit .htaccess:
"Error: document not found"
ftp says:
"[11:22:11] 227 Entering Passive Mode (216,32,85,170,192,9).
[11:22:11] Opening data connection to 216.32.85.170 Port: 49161
[11:22:11] STOR .htaccess
[11:22:11] 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for .htaccess

[11:22:12] SIZE .htaccess
[11:22:12] 213 189
[11:22:12] Transfer successful"
Editing this, produces the same "no such file" error.
Note: 644 is the permissions for .htaccess , if that helps.
Thanks in advance!
may God bless you.
