Question

I’m tring to get CakePHP 2.2.3 working with EasyPHP 12.1 on my local machine. I’m getting an error from Cake that says:

URL rewriting is not properly configured on your server.

1. Help me configure it please
2. I don’t / can’t use URL rewriting

I followed all of the instructions on the ‘Help me configure it’ page with no success. I’ve just installed both EasyPHP and Cake and have only modified the http.conf file.

I also created a virtualhost using EasyPHP’s built in form.

Check if your .htaccess files are these. First, in your root directory:

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

In app directory:

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

And webroot directory:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
