[SOLVED] about apache

[adv]

hello sorry if i posted in a wrong section...

here`s my problem

i`ve installed apache

 

 

i`ve installed also the modules and enable mod_rewrite.so

it works if the files are in /var/www/html

i can do http://server.com/index

but if i change the DocumentRoot to another folder it doesn`t work without extension

i say the file is not found :|

any help will be apreciated

 

edit : sorry i posted several days ago in another section but no answer .. :|

can you put the rewrite rules in an .htaccess file in the directory in question?

[adv]

i didn`t created the .htaccess..

do i need it to put in the new DocumentRoot that i have created  ?

and how does it works ..i only what to use the site without the extentions .

You would have an .htaccess file in the document root with something like:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on

# Change all URLs that contain letters and numbers only to TheTarget.php
RewriteRule ([0-9a-z]+)$ $1.php  [QSA,L]

Note, I haven't tested the above code, but it should work (or I'm sure someone else will correct me)

Not Found

 

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

 

i just want to get rid of the extension .. to be seen only the index not index.php in the DocumentRoot

[ucffool]

go to server.com/index

and it should try and grab /index.php

i`ve done it thanks
