  I've gone through all the steps here to remove index.php <https://craftcms.com/support/remove-index.php>
  
  The .htacess file is the default one that came with Craft on install
  
  ```
  <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
      RewriteEngine On
  
      # Send would-be 404 requests to Craft
      RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
      RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
      RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(favicon\.ico|apple-touch-icon.*\.png)$ [NC]
      RewriteRule (.+) index.php?p=$1 [QSA,L]
  </IfModule>
  
  ```
  
  In my config/general.php file I have the setting set explicity..
  
  ```
  'omitScriptNameInUrls' => 'true',
  
  ```
  
  I wrote to Arcustech for help with the httpd.conf file as the last step and they said...

  I asked to be moved to the Craft Optimized plan, but it doesn't sound like that's an issue.
  
  Any idea what's going on? Somedays it's fine. Today, at the moment, it's not.
