Clean URLs- moving Apache 2 on Debian specific comment to a child page

>>> [!note] Migrated issue   Reported by: [Amazon](https://www.drupal.org/user/18703) >>> This comment was valuable so I am filing an issue asking the documentation team to create a handbook page. <a href="http://drupal.org/node/15365#comment-50324">http://drupal.org/node/15365#comment-50324</a> The comment is now a handbook page here: <a href="http://drupal.org/node/43783">http://drupal.org/node/43783</a> If you're running Apache2 on Debian stable, in order to install the rewrite module you simply need to: <code># a2enmod rewrite</code> then restart the webserver: <code># /etc/init.d/apache2 restart</code> then edit either /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/drupal or to your .htaccess and ensure it looks something like this: <pre># # Apache/PHP/site settings: # # Protect files and directories from prying eyes: <Files ~ "(\.(conf|inc|module|pl|sh|sql|theme|engine|xtmpl)|Entries|Repositories|Root|scripts|updates)$">   order deny,allow   deny from all </Files> # Set some options Options -Indexes Options +FollowSymLinks # Customized server error messages: ErrorDocument 404 /index.php # Set the default handler to index.php: DirectoryIndex index.php # Overload PHP variables: <IfModule sapi_apache2.c>    # If you are using Apache 2, you have to use <IfModule sapi_apache2.c>    # instead of <IfModule mod_php4.c>.    php_value register_globals        0    php_value track_vars              1    php_value short_open_tag          1    php_value magic_quotes_gpc        0    php_value magic_quotes_runtime    0    php_value magic_quotes_sybase     0    php_value arg_separator.output    "&amp;"    php_value session.cache_expire    200000    php_value session.gc_maxlifetime  200000    php_value session.cookie_lifetime 2000000    php_value session.auto_start      0    php_value session.save_handler    user    php_value session.cache_limiter   none    php_value allow_call_time_pass_reference  On </IfModule> # Various rewrite rules <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>   RewriteEngine on   Options All   # Modify the RewriteBase if you are using Drupal in a subdirectory and the   # rewrite rules are not working properly:   RewriteBase /drupal   # Rewrite old-style URLS of the form 'node.php?id=x':   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d   RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([^&]+)$   RewriteRule node.php index.php?q=node/view/%1 [L]   # Rewrite old-style URLs of the form 'module.php?mod=x':   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d   RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^mod=([^&]+)$   RewriteRule module.php index.php?q=%1 [L]   # Rewrite URLs of the form 'index.php?q=x':   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] </IfModule> # $Id: .htaccess,v 1.58 2004/10/09 20:41:49 dries Exp $</pre>This is because the debian package installs the drupal "sites-enabled" virtual host, result being that drupal is accessed from <a href="http://yourhost.com/drupal">http://yourhost.com/drupal</a>, hence the need to uncomment RewriteBase. Change it to the base that corresponds to your system. ref: <a href="http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/136">http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/136</a> <a href="http://drupal.org/node/14322">http://drupal.org/node/14322</a> -- Sean K.
