problem with .htaccess...

hi

i try to to do overriding with apache

in my loadmodule.conf

LoadModule rewrite_module /usr/lib/apache2-prefork/mod_rewrite.so

Code (markup):

in httpd.conf

<Directory />
 Options None
 AllowOverride All
 Order deny,allow
 Deny from all
</Directory>

# use .htaccess files for overriding,
AccessFileName .htaccess
# and never show them
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
 Order allow,deny
 Deny from all
</Files>

Code (markup):

my .htaccess file

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
ErrorDocument 404 /index

RewriteRule ^news([0-9]+)$ newssection.php?sec_nosection=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^index$ index.php [L]

Code (markup):

if i go to:
http://localhost/newssection.php?sec_nosection=1

but if i try

ttp://localhost/news1

i get:

any idea?

 

Looks fine to me.

Is your .htaccess file in /srv/www/htdocs ?

 

ls -ls /srv/www/htdocs/.htaccess
4 -rw-r--r-- 1 collinm users 3445 2005-10-18 23:28 /srv/www/htdocs/.htaccess

 

Try adding

RewriteBase /

Code (markup):

before your RewriteRules. That should sort it out.
