404s on all pages except homepage
I have copied a Drupal installation onto my local machine and I am now running into an issue where only the homepage will load and all other links return a 404.
Clean URLS are enabled but even attempting to manually type the URL like:
?q=admin/module
fails…
I have tried the following:
- Setting AllowOverride to All
- including the mod_rewrite module
- including the usr_module
- setting the baseURL in settings.php
None have yet appeared to have any effect.
Can anybody suggest anything else to try?

Check that you have the .htaccess file present in your Drupal root folder.

This happened to me once, I copied an entire site folder and clean urls didn't work. I'd copied my files by just selecting all the files in a folder, which doesn't select hidden files, so I was missing my .htaccess file in the drupal root folder.

There's some documentation on clean URLs here -- http://drupal.org/getting-started/clean-urls
At a glance, it looks like you've checked everything in the "Fixing Problems" section except RewriteBase.
