htaccess problem

Question

I am not able to get URL redirection to work. It appears to be a problem with my .htaccess file. I am using WampServer.

Following is the code in .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^contactus index.php?file=c-contactus

This probably should belong to Server Fault. – RaYell Aug 17 '09 at 17:50 — RaYell, Aug 17 '09 at 17:50

put a / before index.php?file=c-contactus

so it becomes:

/index.php?file=c-contactus

or

RewriteRule ^contactus$ index.php?file=c-contactus

edited, does your request end with a slash? If so, it will not work. – Aug 17 '09 at 18:38
Remove the $ from the RewriteRule Above, or use mrinject's optional / – maxwellb Aug 17 '09 at 18:52

You must enable RewriteRule at first step.

Look at here

<Directory /var/www/>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    allow from all
</Directory>

Change the AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All

in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-deafult

Please make sure you have mod_rewrite module enabled in your Apache server configuration first. One of the easiest way is to run a phpinfo() and look in Loaded Modules section as below:

If you did't find the mod_rewrite there, edit the httpd.conf file in /wampserver/bin/apache/conf path and uncomment the following line: LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /your-project-folder/
RewriteRule ^contactus/?$ index.php?file=c-contactus [L,QSA]

If you working with localhost then please provide root folder name(In which your project avaiable) for url rewritebase

For example: If your index.php file under the firstproject folder then set like this

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /firstproject/
RewriteRule ^contactus/?$ index.php?file=c-contactus [L,QSA]
