i have successfully migrated wordpress to drupal. On wordpress i had the permalinks as localhost/drupal/index.php/archive/post-name. The problem on drupal is that if the permalink has index.php in it, it keeps sending me back to the main page, even though the address link shows the post url with index.php. If i use localhost/drupal/archive/post-name as permalink, it works. I guess im getting an error and its using the index.php as the 404 page. What can i do to use the index.php in the permalink and successfully show the post.

Permalink - %postname%

I've just tested your scenario (using index.php in the permalink) and all is working as intended. Under my conditions, the document root is

http://localhost

I have a test Drupal installation residing in a folder:

/drupal-6.3

So the url to access this site is:
http://localhost/drupal-6.3

A permalink I set at the options screen of Wordpress is as follows:

Permalink - Screenshot

After conversion, within Drupal, I have url's similar to the following:

http://localhost/drupal-6.3/?q=drupal/index.php/archive/my-paper-mind-by-javan-ivey

The ?q= part is simply because I haven't got clean url's enabled for my local machine. It wouldn't show otherwise.

Clicking these links opens up the page(s) in question. There's more about Wordpress permalinks here.

The only thing I can think of at the moment re - your issue is that maybe the Wordpress %postname% tag is not implemented properly. I'd check that first. Hope this helps.
