WordPress Permalinks not working – Apache Configuration Reset

0 Views

On Live server, to resolve 404 error when trying to access any page, changed below setting in httpd.conf 

<Directory "/usr/local/apache/htdocs">
    Options Includes Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

But on next day it gets reset to below

<Directory "/usr/local/apache/htdocs">
    Options Includes Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

Really hoping that it was going to work, but no go. This is what .htaccess looked like after I changed the permalink option: 

<Directory />
 Options +FollowSymLinks
 AllowOverride All
</Directory>

<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

The pages are still not accessible. Changing AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All works, but it resets again to default setting somehow.

404 page not found error appears often even after changing httpd.conf and .htaccess.

Note: mod_rewrite is already installed
