2	GoDaddy says they support .htaccess files: ".htaccess works on our Linux servers" However, there seems to be reported cases where they don't support all the directives for .htaccess: .htaccess at godaddy link answered Aug 16 '10 at 02:13 Nikki Erwin Ramirez ♦♦ 1.2k●2●17

I'm not familiar with GoDaddy, but this is how I'd go about solving a similar problem:

Check if the option for showing hidden files is enabled.
You can also try to create the .htaccess file in GoDaddy and simply copy and paste the content that you need into the file.
You can also upload a file named htaccess.txt, upload it and rename it to .htaccess.

0	I think I read somewhere that it takes at least an hour for GoDaddy to detect your first .htaccess upload. Succeeding uploads/modifications after the first one should take effect immediately. link answered Aug 18 '10 at 11:11 paul_sns 1.7k●1●16 edited Aug 18 '10 at 11:13
