Hello!

I have a problem with rewriting URLs in my Apache server that runs under Windows XP (SP2).
I made all important things I've found on the internet like to add this:

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

in my httpd.conf. Additionaly I changed

AllowOverride None

to:

AllowOverride All

After doing this I restarted Apache but the rewriting functionality is still not working.
The .htaccess unfortunatelly is not working on Windows machines.

Did I forget something?

Hope you can help me.

Thanks,

Alex

Can you paste what you have in your .htaccess file? Also this is the wrong forum for this question, you need: Web servers forums.

Hi!

I cannot create any .htaccess files in windows xp. That is the problem.
I know what I have to write in a .htaccess file, but it's not possible to create one.

Is there any way to create that file in windows?

Yes, open notepad, and when saving the file, put double quotes around the name. Eg: ".htaccess"

O man, many many thanks. It is so easy but I couldn't find this little information anywhere.

No I can go on working.
