I have Ubuntu 12.10 with apache2 installed, and my .htaccess file is not working. I have it set up to be able to not have .php file extensions in the links, so it looks like www.website.com/login instead of /login.php, but it says that the URL "/login" is not found on the server. I have read this page and it says something about "AllowOverride All" but I don't know where that is, or if I need to add it, where I would add it.
EDIT: I have found this link and have found what it says, but it says that I have an Internal Server Error on any page I go to. I have changed the to
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
but it says Internal Server Error
EDIT #2: In the error log, it says
/var/www/.htaccess: Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
EDIT #3: Found the answer here: .htaccess: Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
Make sure you have enabled mod_rewrite in your .htaccess.
Also make sure you these lines at the top of your .htaccess:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
i.e. turn the MultiViews options off.
Also see this Q&A for a similar problem and my answer.
You should have or specify Directory-block in your apache configurations. You can find AllowOverride documentation here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#allowoverride
And documentation about <Directory> is here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#directory
In short: specify where you would like to allow the settings to be overridden with <Directory /path/to/your/directory> and then use AllowOverride all in that directory block.

I'm working on a project in a group. I'm the only guy using Linux. Anyways, we use git and there's one file which causes me problems.
The htaccess contains the following:
<IfModule authz_core_module>
Require all granted
</IfModule>
If I comment out the Require all granted, it works, however, when it's not commented out, it gives me a 500 server error.
I do have authz_core_module and I can't disable it because if it's not a module it will Deny from all.
Why is that line giving me a 500 server error? The file works correctly at all those other guys who use Windows. Is it something because of my Linux apache?
I got it to work by adding these 2 lines to my httpd.conf file:
<Directory /THEPATHHERE/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride FileInfo Indexes Authconfig
</Directory>
I've just installed ubuntu-server_6.04.2_LTS, after the fresh installation I've enabled mod_rewrite, it's showing in phpinfo()
my .htaccess file is OK
but, still requests are not going through index.php
You should check if for that specific directory (root folder of your project), apache is configured to allow overriding through .htaccess.
If you want to allow such override, the directives found in apache.conf or the specific settings for your virtual host should look like this:
<Directory /var/www/>
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
I have a Linux box running Centos 6.6 with Apaches 2.2.x
For some unknown reason, turning on the rewrite engine causes a 403 error (this happens whether I add a rewrite rule or not).
I have spent hours researching this and have made changes to my config in accordance with advice I have found in many places, but still got nowhere.
Currently in my .htaccess I have this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
</IfModule>
In the directives for the virtual host, I have this:
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example.uk
<Directory /var/www/html/example.uk>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ServerName example.uk
ServerAlias www.example.uk
(This seems to work in a Debian box, but not for my Centos machine.)
In my httpd.conf I have changed
AllowOverride None
to
AllowOverride All
my httpd.conf also contains
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
Error log says:
Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: /var/www/html/example.uk
Now, I have previously added SymLinksIfOwnerMatch to the directives, but it didn't solve the problem.
I followed this and all seemed to go as it should.
This happens when Apache doesn't have execute rights for
/var
/var/www
/var/www/html
/var/www/html/example.uk
Run:
chmod o+x /var /var/www /var/www/html /var/www/html/example.uk
Since apache version >= 2.4 directive
Order allow,deny
allow from all
leads to a global 403, to ensure this if you check you're apache's log :
[Tue May 05 11:54:32.471679 2015] [authz_core:error] [pid 9497] [client 127.0.0.1:35908] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /path/to/web/
Comment Directive Order and add Require all granted like bellow:
Require all granted
#Order allow,deny
#allow from all
Hope this help.
Edit :
explanation from apache
This behaviour is provided by new module mod_authz_host
For list of restriction available (ip, host, etc) http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/en/mod/mod_authz_host.html
You should remove this line from htaccess
Options +FollowSymLinks
You already have it in the apache vhost file. Also if you should add a rule if you're going to turn on mod_rewrite or there is no point to turning it on.
Another possibility with Apache 2.4 is caused by Options -FollowSymlinks which will also throw a 403 error and generate the following log:
AH00670: Options FollowSymLinks and SymLinksIfOwnerMatch are both off,
so the RewriteRule directive is also forbidden due to its similar
ability to circumvent directory restrictions
This was not the case in the original post, but if it comes up you would need to re-enable FollowSymLinks using this line:
Options +FollowSymLinks
I have just created a new (test) symfony project and set my apache webroot to /home/user/project/ (not sure if it should be /home/user/project/web/?)
However, from what I understand based on the lightbulb section here: http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/page_creation.html#the-web-directory - there isn't any internal rerouting occurring. Therefore, this does not work:
http://localhost/random/10
but these do work:
http://localhost/app_dev.php/random/10
http://localhost/app.php/random/10
To double check, if I start the internal PHP server (php app/console server:start) then everything gets rerouted correctly - this does work:
http://localhost:8000/random/10
Am I right in thinking that I need to make changes to .htaccess? If so, is there a 'standard' section of code for using apache with symfony?
EDIT:
I have updated my apache2.conf (which for others would be httpd.conf if not on ubuntu as I understand it) as below:
<Directory /home/user/Project/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
If I remember correctly, .htaccess alredy defines DirectoryIndex as app.php. However, your Apache config file httpd.conf might be blocking the override.
Make sure that you have that line in your .htaccess and also check the value of AllowOverride (docs) within your httpd.conf. Try setting AllowOverride to All and see if that works.
I am trying to write some rewrite rules in apache2 conf and they are not working
Following is my virtualhost block in apache conf. My os is ubuntu 12.04 server edition
DocumentRoot /var/www/xyz
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/xyz>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
#AllowOverride None
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
#Order deny,allow
allow from all
</Directory>
I have .htaccess file with some rewrite rules as follows
ReWriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/matchV/(.*) http://host:8080/$1
RewriteRule ^/other/(.*?)$ /httpdcontent/$1
rewrite module is enabled with apache.
Can someone tell me if i am missing anything.
Thanks,
Sandeep
First of all, a dollar sign seems to be missing on the first rewriting rule.
Then, I would recommend the use of [L] in "debug" situation. This way, only one rule would have to be corrected at the time.
If you need to check how the rewriting goes, you need to have a look at your log files /var/log/apache2/error.log and /var/log/apache2/access.log. They will tell you what URL the server tried to process, and how it failed. From this, you should be able to see what is missing, or what is "too much".
From what I see, I would say it has to do with the rewriting base. Your webserver root is probably at /var/www, and the directory for the virtual host is /var/www/xyz. I think you could fix it using something like...
RewriteBase /xyz
Anyway, edit the configurations, and don't stop checking the logs. From there, you'll see what URL/File the server tries to process, and you should be able to correct the paths it uses.
