alfanexus Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 When I go into System->Search Engine Optimization in AdminCP and enable Rewrite Urls I get 403 HTTP errors after uploading the .htaccess file I am told to upload. This is on a test server, no real domain has been setup yet. So the sitename I use is something like: http://135.78.214.67/testsite.com And the content of .htaccess that I downloaded from ACP and uploaded to server rooth looks like this: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /testsite.com/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule \.(js|css|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico)(\?|$) /testsite.com/404error.php [L,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /testsite.com/index.php [L] </IfModule> testsite.com is just a folder on that server and this is the location where IPS is installed. What could be wrong?
Paul.F Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Get rid of the reference to testsite.com from your htaccess.
alfanexus Posted November 15, 2015 Author Posted November 15, 2015 I have already tried that it still gives me 403 when I upload .htaccess with the following <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule \.(js|css|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico)(\?|$) /404error.php [L,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>
Paul.F Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Do you have mod_rewrite enabled on your test server?
alfanexus Posted November 15, 2015 Author Posted November 15, 2015 Yes mod_rewrite is enabled. Tested it with the following php script: <?php if(!function_exists('apache_get_modules') ){ phpinfo(); exit; } $res = 'Module Unavailable'; if(in_array('mod_rewrite',apache_get_modules())) $res = 'Module Available'; ?> <html> <head> <title>A mod_rewrite availability check !</title></head> <body> <p><?php echo apache_get_version(),"</p><p>mod_rewrite $res"; ?></p> </body> </html> Wich returned: Module Available... so this should be working.
Paul.F Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Can you let me know what your server software specs are?
alfanexus Posted November 15, 2015 Author Posted November 15, 2015 Yes. SunOS PHP version: 5.6.6 Mysql version 5.6.22 Apache/2.4.10
Paul.F Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Can you confirm that AllowOverride is enabled in httpd.conf
alfanexus Posted November 15, 2015 Author Posted November 15, 2015 I had to do a little research to find that information and what it is, I found the following in a httpd.conf file on the server: <Directory /> AllowOverride none Require all denied </Directory> So that that could be the problem. I dont want to mess with serverfiles I Dont know about, so I will have to check with my host tommorow. Thank you very much for your help
dragonfly411 Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 I had the same issue, had to replace Options -MultiViews with Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews -Indexes
