Question

I got the cakePHP and I have the following error.

URL rewriting is not properly configured on your server. 1) Help me configure it 2) I don’t / can’t use URL rewriting

The odd thing is that it is working fine on my laptop and it is not working on my desktop pc. I copy the whole thing from my laptop and paste it on the desktop and that error is shown.

Any ideas to solve? I follow the steps to solve but it is the same problem. My cakePHP version is 2.0 above.

Answer 1

You can Check first your rewrite mode is on or not in apache/conf/httpd.conf file.
check below code in httpd.conf file:

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

Hash remove in this line and restart Apache server:

#sudo service apache2 restart

After that you can set below code in your cakephp .htaccess file:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /YourPath/
    RewriteRule    ^$    app/webroot/      [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*)  app/webroot/$1    [L]       
 </IfModule>
