Cant get mod_rewrite to work

I installed apache on my windows computer, but now I cant get mod_rewrite working..
I load the module

and AllowOverride is ALL

and this my htaccess

but all I get is 'The requested URL xx was not found on this server.'

Anybody has an idea how to fix this?
thanks

 

Try

RewriteRule ^index.html$ index.php [L]

and go to domain.com/index.html and see if the php file comes up.

 

I did that, and the php file came up correctly. Then I changed it back, and voila, it worked!?!

Thanks anyhow.

 

Now post a URL you were trying to get and the original URL, if theres still something you can't get working. That was just to see if you do have mod_rewrite set-up correctly.

 

Everything seems to be working now, thanks. Actually, I just found my error. My site was in a directory under localhost, and the root didnt have a index.php file! (it was in the dir). Man I feel stupid for missing that, but thats what happens if you get 1h sleep in 2 days, you miss the obvious and start looking for more complicated problems.
