Make sure the server supports directory level .htaccess files, mod_rewrite is enabled and the .htaccess file is present in the Coppermine directory.

I have the same problem with this plugin. After installing it get 404 not found errors. My server supports directory level .htaccess files, mod_rewrite is enabled, but the .htaccess file is not present in the Coppermine directory, because Coppermine is installed into subdirectory.
My hosting provider is http://www.cirtexhosting.com
Servers are running Linux (Redhat & CentOS).
What should I do to get SEF urls working?

The problem is solved!
I don't think, that the plugin had the rights to create new .htaccess file to that folder (or the problem was something else).
Anyway I uploaded .htaccess file to that directory and set the rights to 0777 and later after installing back to 0644.
Now it is working fine.
