server for a school project. Because I like to use .htaccess files to set rewrite rules and fiddle with some other options, some extra modules had to https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/apache-allowoverride-all be loaded in addition to the standard batch. Checking which modules are currently loaded can easily be done using phpinfo(), as explained in this post about enabling mod_rewrite in Apache. Activating Apache modules is easy: simply open up the httpd.conf file in the /conf/ folder of your Apache installation, and uncomment (or add) the appropriate lines. Commented lines always start with a hash (#).Basically, to not allowed load mod_negotiation (for MultiViews) and mod_rewrite (for rewrite rules), you simply add the following lines to httpd.conf: LoadModule negotiation_module modules/mod_negotiation.so
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so So far, so good. Apache is instructed to load the extra modules; we should now be able to use MultiViews and rewrite rules by defining them in a .htaccess file.However, when I tried using Options +MultiViews, all I got was one of those infamous not allowed here “500 Internal Server Error” pages. The error log said something among the lines of .htaccess: Option MultiViews not allowed here. Google wasn’t really helpful in this case. At first, all I could find was someone having the same problem. I couldn’t find any solutions until I actually started browsing old #apache IRC logs. Turns out Apache has a default setting in httpd.conf which specifies the settings that can be overriden by what’s written in your .htaccess file: AllowOverride. Your httpd.conf might contain something like this:
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Contrary to what you may think, the All parameter doesn’t really mean “[allow overriding] all options”, since it doesn’t include the MultiViews option! The key here is to use AllowOverride Options=All,MultiViews. Together with all other groupings of directives, this is the code we need:
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo Indexes Limit Options=All,MultiViews
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
