CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,

I too am having problems with pretty URLs and despite having read the other thread(s) on this topic, am getting no further...

I set everything up as described in the FAQ but when I try to navigate anywhere (by clicking or by typing in a pretty URL) I get an error message about "Internal Server Error".

When I check the web server's error log, I see the following message

[Sun Aug 06 20:54:39 2006] [alert] [client 130.95.128.51] /home/www/DOCS/people/gordon/cmsmadesimple-0.13/.htaccess: Options not allowed here, referer: http://www.csse.uwa.edu.au/~gordon/cmsm ... x.php/home

Is this a problem with the server configuration disallowing Options?  I am on  a shared multi-user system. so will I need to convince a wary sysadmin to turn something on for me?

Thanks

gordon

in your .htaccess file you are trying to change some options which isnt allowed..

look for lines starting "option +" and put # in front of them (it will comment those lines out)

You may want to try using the example .htaccess file on this page: http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... retty_URLs

Except you will probably want to remove this line from the .htaccess file since your hosting company doesn't seem to allow it: Hope this helps,
