Have you turned off SEF in Global Configuration?

Windows uses a web.config file, while linux uses .htaccess. Rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess and then you can turn on SEF with rewrite.

The tmp and log path in configuration.php must also match the physical path of the server.

Please run the Forum Post Assistant to provide the information to help us try and resolve the issue.
Please follow the instructions in the post and the program pack closely so that we can check the server is correct for Joomla installation.

Are your circumstances precisely the same as the original poster that you are moving from Windows IIS server to Apache or are you just sticking your post where you "think" it belongs? ;)
