I can think of 2 possibilities – you do not have permissions to create the file or you are trying to view the file and unable to as it is hidden.
Use sudo or su to switch to root
sudo nano .htaccessOR most likely
A file proceeded by a
.(dot) in linux will not be seen unless you enable view hidden files in a file manager or runls -afrom a terminalIf using FTP the viewing will depend on your FTP client. For a GUI option such as filezilla will display hidden files automatically
