Hi all,
I've taken the following .htaccess from CentOS 4.5 with Apache 2
============
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+) index.php?forum_id=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
============
which works fine, however when putting it onto an old RHEL3/Apache 2
machine that we've got to use for development it just 404s and the only
log generated is:
10.10.100.43 - - [21/Aug/2007:11:48:10 +0100] "GET /help/forum/forum/1/
HTTP/1.1" 404 307 "http://www.bc.minke/help/forum/"; "Mozilla/5.0
(Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725
Firefox/2.0.0.6"
>From documentation, google and comparing config with the CentOS machine
I believe all I need in the .conf files is
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so (this file does exist
and I even tried restarting apache with mod_rewrite.so from the CentOS
machine, just incase it worked)
however it would seem that I'm wrong.
I've also checked permissions, which I think are ok.
CentOS 4.5
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root apache 105 Mar 16 16:54 .htaccess
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root apache 838 Mar 29 16:12 index.php
drwxrwxr-x 2 root apache 4096 Mar 20 15:39 topic
RHEL 3
-rwxrwxr-x 1 peter.davies rrweb 105 Mar 16 19:07 .htaccess
-rwxrwxr-x 1 peter.davies rrweb 838 Mar 29 17:56 index.php
drwxrwxr-x 2 peter.davies rrweb 4096 Mar 6 16:55 topic
Perhaps someone could point me in the right direction to working out
what I've missed?
Many thanks,
jc
