    and here is my htaccess file Options All -Indexes
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php

    this should work but i do not understand why i'm getting 500 errors

    Thank you for your help

    Remove
    Code:
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    from your .htaccess file and then add something like
    Code:
    <Directory /var/www/web1/web>
      Options +FollowSymLinks
    </Directory>
    to the Apache Directives field of web1 in ISPConfig.

    Hi Falko i know that mod_rewrite is working just fine i found a great script that shows if you have mod_rewrite on or off i really thing it's the way that htaccess workes and it makes me sick that i can not use one of the good future of the script that i'm using but that is o.k i guess... anyway Falko thank you very much for your help on this i really appriciated.
