"Posts page" giving 404 error

[ablewebs]

I have set up my client's site with a static Home page. I have also added a page called "Blog" to the menu, so that we can add posts to the site (I also added three posts). Under Settings > Reading, I have set the Posts page to "Blog." Instead of displaying a list of posts when you click on the Blog link on the top menu, the browser gives a 404 "Page Not Found" message.

Note: EZ Static Home Page is not set up. It is set to use WP default Home page.

I have done this on other sites and it has worked fine, but this is the first time on a Genesis Framework site running Dynamik Website Builder.

Many thanks for any help you can give me! Note: This is for a client so I have to get this resolved!

Is there a directory named "blog" in the server under root (usually public_html)?

Try regenerating .htaccess by clicking on Save at Settings > Permalinks.

Have you tried applying "Blog" Template when editing the "Blog" Page instead of setting it as the Posts page?

Yes, there is an old "blog" directory under root. I will rename it and see if that's the problem.
