Can't configure 'remove index.php'

Hi Dave,

from https://docs.bolt.cm/3.0/howto/making-su...cess-works I got the clue to check if Apache configuration enables .htaccess. In fact that was turned of. I changed this in apache2.conf:

Code:

<Directory "/var/www/htdocs">
   AllowOverride None

I changed None to All and got some results. The first .htaccess file accessed is in /var/www, and the second one is in /var/www/html. But then I get the AH00124 error: exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects. Looks like it's lost somewhere in the forest. Having rewrites to log to level3, I learned that the server loops doing rewrite until the limit is reached.

On top of that, the rewrite is done wrong at the beginning:

Code:

strip per-dir prefix: /var/www/html/wactrl -> html/wactrl
applying patern '.' to uri 'html/wactrl'
rewrite 'html/wactrl' -> 'index.php'
add per-dir prefix index.php/ -> /var/www/index.php'
internal redirect with /var/www/index.php/ [INTERNAL REDIRECT]

Right after this, all of this is done again until the limit is reached.
As far as I understand, the URI from the received is /var/www/html/wactrl, where wactrl is the controller name. Once edited, that should become /var/www/html/index.php/wactrl right ? But it does not. What is wrong ?

And why is there a loop inside /var/www ?

EDIT ON October 20th

Finally made it work. The problem was the RewriteRule. I changed it to:

Code:

RewriteRule html html/index.php

Then /var/www/html/wactrl is changed to /var/www/html/index.php/wactrl

In short RewriteRule line is:[img]file:///Desktop/regex.jpg[/img]

RewriteRule SearchExpression ReplaceExpression

where SearchExpression is the part of the URI to be replaced by ReplaceExpression. This is the short story because both expression can use regular expression.
