Placing .htaccess file in var/www folder messes my website up...
- by Camran
I am playing with mod_rewrite now, and have successfully enabled it.
However, I need to put a htaccess file inside var/www/ in order to achieve what I want, which is to rename Urls simply...
When I place it my website becomes very strange and nothing basically works...
Is there any code I need to put into the htaccess file in order for things to act normally?
Here is the htaccess file I have so far:
Options +FollowSymLinks
Options +Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/ad\.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ad.php?ad_id=$1 [L]
My DocumentRoot is also set to var/www/ and my entire website root is there... (index.html etc etc)...
What am I missing about the htaccess?
If you need more input let me know...
