Problem with .htaccess on localhost - El Forum - 09-05-2008

[eluser]Bramme[/eluser]
Hey all,

I'm experiencing some trouble with my .htaccess file on my localhost, running Ubuntu Hardy Heron. I've created my .htaccess file:

Code:
Options -Indexes

Options +FollowSymLinks

DirectoryIndex index.php

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|_assets)

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !index.php

    RewriteRule (.*)\.php$ index.php/$1

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,L]

</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>

    ErrorDocument 404 index.php

</IfModule>

I go to localhost, I see the standard welcome, I go to localhost/index.php?/welcome/ all is still fine. I go to localhost/welcome/ and I see a complete white page, with only two words in it: "index.php"

Does anybody know what could be causing this?

I don't know what's causing it, but it might be fixed by adding the ? to your htaccess:

Code:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [QSA,L]

[/quote]That fixes it indeed, but it's not really what I was aiming for. I'll use it for now! Thanks.

edit: okay, very weird. the rewrite_module was simply not enable in wamp server. Apparently that caused the error... Still weird it would redirect certain pages then...

Check your default apache configuration. It's quite possible that Apache does not allow you to use an .htaccess file.

You need to have something like

Code:
<Directory /website/rootdir/>

                ...

                # AllowOverride None  <-- This is the default. Set it as below

                AllowOverride All

                ...

 </Directory>
