Hi, I have just installed xampp-win32-1.7.2.exe last night and been researching and keep trying the whole night and still can't get it work!
Basically whereever (anywhere in C:\xampp\htdocs\xampp\ of coz) I put my .htaccess, it will display the error below:
Server error!
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script.
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 500
localhost

Apache/2.2.12 (Win32) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.2.12 OpenSSL/0.9.8k mod_autoindex_color PHP/5.3.0 mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.0
And the error I get from the error.log in apache folder is
[Sat Dec 12 09:25:31 2009] [alert] [client 127.0.0.1] C:/xampp/htdocs/xampp/.htaccess: Redirect not allowed here
I have checked the file 'httpd.conf' under C:\xampp\apache\conf
The rewrite module is uncommented as below
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
and I have changed all the
AllowOverride None
to
AllowOverride All
And I also make sure that I have restarted Apache... So what's still the problem?
The redirect works perfectly fine in a remote server....
