Unable to write .htaccess in my CWP

Hello, I have been stuck with this problem for a week now.

My issue is, all WordPress site cannot create their own .htaccess for permalinks, one of this site is my http://tutorials.kurtobando.com

At this point, I have created it manually, however, if you rename .htaccess to .htaccess_old and let WordPress create new .htaccess, Settings > Permalinks. This is not making any changes on the backend.

By any chance, do you know how to sort this out, or any related article that I can use for isolation. I hope you guys can help me out.

Here are the screenshots of my current setup at the moment.

Directory Permission of tutorials.kurtobando.com

vHost for tutorials.kurtobando.com

In addition to this case, here are the latest log, after I click on Permalinks before sending this message.

I do not see any error in Mod_sec as well, please see:

Hi i have just the same issue, did you were able to fix it? how?!

Thanks a lot in advance.

Who is the owner of the files and folders? How did you install  WordPress?

Hi everyone,

I'm having same trouble, if someone find the solution

Best regards,

same problem here... fresh installation, changed to php 7.2.x and my htaccess not works. any solution?

Who is the owner of the files and folders? How did you install  WordPress?

I create an account for "exampleuser"

I check via Admin an SSH and the user has permission on the files (home/exampleuser,  home/exampleuser/public_html and so on) , (i even tried CHOWN for that) no luck, also I read you need to give Apache permission, so  i try but never found apache user, or www-data user. So i got lost.

For know i used the manual creation of htaccess, wich works fine, but Permalinks in wordpress is not updating (overwriting or creating) the htaccess file..

I install Wordpress manually, upload wordpress via zip, then unzip, then create Database and user, and then install.

In the PRO versión this works fine?
