sudhakararaog Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 hi i am using a cms which requires mod_rewrite to be enabled for seo urls in the wamp that i use in my local machine in the httpd.conf file i have this line and removed the comment LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so when i view the phpinfo i can see that mod_rewrite is on in the Loaded Modules i am guessing that my hosting might not allow to edit the httpd.conf file so i tried adding the following to the .htaccess which is in the root directory Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / and uploaded the .htaccess file and when i viewed the phpinfo i do not see mod_rewrite for my webserver also on my server i would be installing the cms in a separate folder after the root directory, so i guess the .htaccess file should be Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /foldername how do i go about enabling mod_rewrite in the .htaccess file as i might not be able to edit httpd.conf please advice. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cags Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 You can't enable mod_rewrite on the server using .htaccess it can only be done with the httpd.conf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
