Just to be sure, check the actual Apache configuration.

 

If not then you can simply install it.

I'm not sure that I understand what you're asking here...

 

What exactly are you trying to install WordPress on -- a localhost, a blank VPS, a shared hosting account, etc?

Looking at your other topics your server uses OpenSuse right? You need to enable the rewrite module in apache's config as it is not enabled by default.

 

Check this guide for instructions.

Wordpress uses mod_rewrite for clean SEO urls.
