Hey all, I hope you can help me with this.

My .htaccess files are ingored I and I don't have a clue why.
It must be a simple thing but I can't see it

Can you guys help me out?

Thnx in advance

My httpd.conf

Code:

#forbid access to the entire filesystem by default

<Directory />
    Options +Includes +FollowSymlinks +Indexes
    AllowOverride All
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
</Directory>

# use .htaccess files for overriding,
AccessFileName .htaccess
# and never show them
<Files ~ "^\.ht">

    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Files>

Code:

<VirtualHost 192.168.0.7>
    ServerAdmin info@zadkinesux.nl
    documentRoot /srv/www/htdocs/zadkinesux.nl/search.zadkinesux.nl/
    ServerName search.zadkinesux.nl
    <Directory />
     AllowOverride All
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

It seems like you have AllowOverride set to None as far as Apache is concerned.

You have enabled AllowOverride on /; have you turned this off in any intermediate directory?

It could be that your Apache hasn't read its configuration files properly. If you run apachectl reload, then it should tell you in error_log if there is any problem reading httpd.conf.

Thnx a lot you gave me some inspiration to look at it again. I think I might accidently did uncomment lines as

Code:

Include /etc/apache2/default-server.conf

I hardly can't image that it was uncommented by default.

Well thnx a lot the problem is fixed now!!
