Alright,
after taking a break for the weekend ;) ... I created the info.php and it says:
Code: Select all
apache2handler
Apache Version Apache
Apache API Version 20051115
...
Virtual Server Yes
Server Root /etc/apache2
Loaded Modules core mod_log_config mod_logio prefork http_core mod_so mod_alias mod_auth_basic mod_authn_file
mod_authz_default mod_authz_groupfile mod_authz_host mod_authz_user mod_autoindex mod_cgi mod_dav mod_dav_fs mod_dir
mod_env mod_fastcgi mod_fcgid mod_mime mod_negotiation mod_php5 mod_python mod_setenvif mod_speling mod_status mod_suexec mod_rewrite
mod_rewrite seems to be enabled and loaded. What now?
edit:
@Russ: apache gives no startup errors when restarting and the error.log doesn´t say anything suspicious:
Code: Select all

I guess to confirm that mod re-write is working
I would create a folder called "mod" in the root the web, create and "old" and "new" folder
Inside the old folder put index1.html with some text soo you know its the old page.
Inside the new folder put index.html so you know its the new page.
Then create an .htaccess file inside the folder "mod" with
Code: Select all
RewriteEngine On
Redirect 301 /mod/old/index1.html http://www.siteurl.com/mod/new/index.html
navigate to
http://www.siteurl.com/mod/old/index1.html
This should redirect you to the new page with url
http://www.siteurl.com/mod/new/index.html
That to me confirms 100% mod_rewrite is working.
Another note, if you place bad code inside to .htaccess file it will break the mod_rewrite i noticed once.
So try with a basic htaccess file with just the rewrites you need.

Hi nilson
I just noticed the following:
Your code out of the first post:
Code: Select all
# Rewrites urls in the form of /parent/child/
# but only rewrites if the requested URL is not a file or directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+).html$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA]
But the default .htaccess code 1.6.6 (found in the /doc folder as file htaccess.txt) is:
Code: Select all
# Rewrites urls in the form of /parent/child/
# but only rewrites if the requested URL is not a file or directory
#
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA]
You see the difference (.html), perhaps...
®
{*
In order to use the right file!
Copy the htaccess.txt file out of the /doc folder to the root of the website and rename it into .htaccess
*}
{*
And don't forget to change: RewriteBase /cms
*}

If you have cmsms in a subfolder you need to have that .htaccess in that folder not the root...

right again Dr.CSS -
with the doc/htaccess.txt copied to /cmsms as .htaccess with
RewriteBase /cmsms
works like a charm.
One more thing to do, in config.php change
$config['root_url'] = '
http://domain.com/cmsms';
to
$config['root_url'] = '
http://domain.com';
then with root .htaccess -
Code: Select all
Options -Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
# if it's not a real file
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
# rewrite to the subdirectory
RewriteRule !^cmsms(/?|/.+)$ /cmsms%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
all is good - I think ...
- thank you
