My sites are in the following directories srv/www/web1/web srv/www/web2/web srv/www/web3/web srv/www/web4/web This is where i have put the .htaccess file. On my Windows sever the .htaccess file is in C:\Apache\htdocs\mysites and all Mambo sites have 404 SEF installed and all run fine. I have tried all the previous .htacces files you suggested but with no luck. There has to be something really simple that i am overlooking. shajazzi
I guess it must be a slight change in the .htaccess file... Do you get a 404 or a 500 error with the different .htaccess files? Is there anything in the Apache error log?
Thanks falko, I deleted everything in the error file then tried each one of the .htaccess files, these are the errors I`am getting.

You should have something like Code: <Directory /srv/www/*/web> Options +Includes -Indexes AllowOverride None AllowOverride Indexes AuthConfig Limit FileInfo Order allow,deny Allow from all <Files ~ "^\.ht"> Deny from all </Files> </Directory> in your Apache configuration. Replace it with this: Code: <Directory /srv/www/*/web> Options +Includes [B][COLOR="Red"]FollowSymLinks[/COLOR][/B] -Indexes AllowOverride None AllowOverride Indexes AuthConfig Limit FileInfo Order allow,deny Allow from all <Files ~ "^\.ht"> Deny from all </Files> </Directory> and restart Apache. Comment out Code: mod_gzip_on in your .htaccess file.
I changed the Apache config file and commented out the mod_gzip_on, but i am still receiving the following errors: [Tue Feb 07 00:18:53 2006] [alert] [client 88.105.1.54] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here [Tue Feb 07 00:18:53 2006] [alert] [client 88.105.1.54] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here [Tue Feb 07 00:19:59 2006] [alert] [client 88.105.1.54] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here [Tue Feb 07 00:19:59 2006] [alert] [client 88.105.1.54] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here [Tue Feb 07 00:20:39 2006] [alert] [client 88.105.1.54] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here [Tue Feb 07 00:20:39 2006] [alert] [client 88.105.1.54] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here [Tue Feb 07 00:22:20 2006] [alert] [client 192.168.1.100] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here, referer: http://www.3lions2006.com/administrator/index2.php?option=com_sef [Tue Feb 07 00:22:20 2006] [alert] [client 192.168.1.100] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here, referer: http://www.3lions2006.com/administrator/index2.php?option=com_sef [Tue Feb 07 00:22:20 2006] [alert] [client 192.168.1.100] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here [Tue Feb 07 00:22:20 2006] [alert] [client 192.168.1.100] /srv/www/web1/web/.htaccess: Options not allowed here shajazzi
Please change this in your Apache configuration: Code: <Directory /srv/www/*/web> Options +Includes FollowSymLinks -Indexes [B][COLOR="Red"]AllowOverride None AllowOverride Indexes AuthConfig Limit FileInfo[/COLOR][/B] Order allow,deny Allow from all <Files ~ "^\.ht"> Deny from all </Files> </Directory> to Code: <Directory /srv/www/*/web> Options +Includes FollowSymLinks -Indexes [B][COLOR="Red"]AllowOverride All[/COLOR][/B] Order allow,deny Allow from all <Files ~ "^\.ht"> Deny from all </Files> </Directory> and restart Apache.
Thanks falko, That done the trick, all the links are working perfectly. Thanks again for taking the time to help me with my glitches. shajazzi
My next problem is that i installed Joomla with safe mode disabled and it works OK until i try to install Virtuemart. The component installs OK but the shop isn`t there. I noticed this when I tried to migrate a site with phpshop from my windows server i had to manually remove all phpshop components and modules for the site to work also there was a problem with the news feed scroller which also had to be removed. I have also tried to install the complete joomla eCommerceEdition package but this results in not being able to view the site front end, but i can log in to the back end Any suggestions? shajazzi
Are you shure taht all directories where these installers want to write their files to are writable? Can you please make a new thread with your next question. Its easier when each thread handles only one problem
Hi! I had problems with installing Mambo, but after executing I managed to install Mambo. But now I have problems with stuff in /web folder. I can't create new folder...not in ISPConfig not through FTP Client. How can I fix this? Tilen
By changing back the owner and group of /srv/www/web17/web. You should only change the ownership of those directories that Apache needs write access for - but instead of changing the owner and group, you could also do a Code: chmod 777 /path/to/directory
