Postby magicPee » 05. November 2008 19:42

hello friends,

last week i switched from windows to linux on my main pc
installed lampp
but now i have this problem : for my sites i use simple mod_rewrite

Code: Select all
# Ignore real directories.
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([-a-z0-9]+)/?$  index.php?toon=$1 [NC,QSA,L]


basic rewrite script
but this isn't working !

i do have a 2nd pc with windows, and there its working fine

my lampp is basic, i just installed apachefriends lampp, and didnt change anything in the httpd.conf

Look in httpd.conf for this Line:

Code: Select all
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so


If there is an # before, remove it and restart Apache.

Additional you can change your .htaccess to this one:

Code: Select all
# Ignore real directories.
foobar
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([-a-z0-9]+)/?$  index.php?toon=$1 [NC,QSA,L]


and then try again. As foobar is not a valid option you should get an Error Code in your Browser, otherwise the .htaccess file is not parsed.
