.htaccess weird problem.

[Thaorius]

Hi! has you can see this is my first post :P

The problem is really weird, i always(after formating the hd) install apache, php and mysql(same versions) and use the same httpd.conf. Thats what i did this last time, but this time, for some weird reason .htaccess file isn't working.

I know it doesn't because the ErrorDocument don't work. I also try writing somo letters to get an "Internal Server Error" but it didn't appear.

The worst part is this, in the httpd.conf:
#
# AccessFileName: The name of the file to look for in each directory
# for additional configuration directives. See also the AllowOverride
# directive.
#


AccessFileName .htaccess

Any suggestions?

PD: The olny change with this format is th OS, before i was using WinXP Home without updates, now i have WinXP Pro SP2 and all updates.

PD2: My english really sucks

Thanks for answer me.

This might be a good question to ask on experts-exchange.com Are you running Apache2?

By the Default:

The entry below is the apache's default
#
# AccessFileName: The name of the file to look for in each directory
# for access control information.
#
AccessFileName .htaccess

Maybe try checking the document root where it is pointed, also try restarting your apache.

Hope it helps

And was not the problem
