So i installed debian 8 and apache .. and I get my files working properly, apache core installed, files show up, php works, but htaccess redirects dont :evil: :shock:

Aah okay, had to put AllowOverride All in all 3 places in apache2.conf

Oh and.. had to fix this part as well:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f

RewriteRule !.*.php$ %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php [QSA,L]

Note: Restarting httpd is not essential for .htaccess files. .htaccess files are specifically for those who don't have root access to the httpd server config file, and are unable to restart the server.

If .htaccess files are being ignored, you need to ensure that AllowOverride is set properly. See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/co … owoverride">http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#allowoverride for details. You need to also ensure that it is set in the right block in your configuration.

If you want to check that a .htaccess file is in fact being read, put garbage in it. An invalid line, such as "INVALID LINE HERE", in your .htaccess file, will result in a 500 Server Error when you point your browser at the directory containing that file. If it doesn't, then you don't have AllowOverride configured correctly.
