URL Rewriting - not working

Hi,
I am trying to rewrite URLs using .htaccess but couldn't make it.
In case you can help me plz..
I have searched this forum but could not get any solution.

I have tried these links :
http://www.webconfs.com/url-rewriting-tool.php
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html

but not succeeded. I think either i have to check server setting or i am doing a little mistake.

Waiting for your responce...................

 

Have you enabled mod_rewrite?

 

.htacess file

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule process-id-(.*)\.htm$ process.php?id=$1

 

search ur httpd.conf file (usually /etc/http/conf/httpd.conf) for the mod_rewrite module, it should be uncommented.
if not, uncoment save ans restart httpd.

 

you should check from phpinfo();
just write a script in a text file <?php phpinfo(); ?> and save it as a php file and run it.
it will show the enabled modules in apache section.from there you can see if mod_rewrite is enabled or not.i think your mod_rewrite is not enabled.you should follow legend2's suggestion.

 

enable mod_rewrite in httpd.conf
