Problem with .htaccess file

[komer83]

I installed xampp insted of mamp, everything is almost working well, it is much faster (mamp was not updated for too long...), I even managed to work with my database much better.

But, I still have a problem I could not fix, the .htaccess file.

my directory works like that:
.htaccess
index.html
index.php
graphic library, SMART library etc.

I can access the index.html and its graphics, but from there I can't do nothing and get

Code: Select all

Not Found

The requested URL /index.php was not found on this server.


I can access the graphic library and files, and other files that are not in the main directory. if I put a graphic file in the main directory I get the same error.

what to do? what am I missing?

Thank you,

Hi Omer,

I'm not sure. I've not understand well your problem.

But when I've to setup xampp to develop with Zend Framework I changed the AllowOverride Apache directive witch you can find in xampp/etc/httpd.conf from AuthConfig to All.

Hope that it helps

done that, without changing it i could not even access the main page.

but every file in the main library cannot be accessed (beside the index.html)

What does your .htaccess file contain?

Maybe you need to set the 'line break type' to UNIX (LI or LF). I believe that the line break type for text-editors for Mac are standard set to 'Macintosh (CR)'. With this setting I had also problems with .htaccess-files in combination with XAMPP. But when I set this to UNIX the .htaccess files worked normally for me.
