I usually have to make 2 changes in my httpd.conf file on a new install to get clean urls to work. The directions linked to on the page work well, ask if you get stuck.
Don,
This is a local (private) installation so I can learn Drupal and build my new site before transferring everything to the live server.
In /etc/httpd/httpd.conf is the line:
LoadModule rewrite_module lib/httpd/modules/mod_rewrite.so
so that seems to be enabled for the server.
In /var/www/htdocs/drupal-sqlite/.htaccess I see:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on
# RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$ [NC] # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
# RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.com$ [NC] # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
# Rewrite URLs of the form 'x' to the form 'index.php?q=x'. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] </IfModule>
Should any of the above be changed?
Guidance appreciated.
