I have mod rewrite enabled but it isn't working, as you can see here: http://www.b2b-mortgage.com/Software/

It is working for other sites on my server. I'm using it to redirect usmg.net to www.usmg.net

Any suggestions?

I see it is working without mod rewrite:
http://www.b2b-mortgage.com/index.php?c=1
Usually it is something like a missing .htaccess file.

Thanks, I'm using the .htaccess file that came with the download:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule .* index.php [QSA,L]

Do I need to customize it?

Ok, you should get an answer from a more experienced (than me) programmer shortly. I'm not sure what to tell you next, but you might want to search a little in the forums as well.

Hello mortgages12, welcome to the forums.

Would it be possible to get access to the server?

I'd like to check out a couple things having to do with your problem.

Thank you for your time and for choosing PHP Link Directory.

Hello, the problem is that the "mod_rewrite" module is not installed. ask your host to install it.

mod_rewrite.so is located in /etc/httpd/modules

httpd.conf shows LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

And I believe I'm using it to redirect usmg.net to www.usmg.net

well under the phpinfo it doesn't show the module loaded, check with your host just in case.

The module is loaded, no worries I've handled it.

Thanks

I am using godaddy.com. I asked them to install mod_rewrite. This is how they responded.

Thank you for your email. Our servers do have mod_rewrite, but you are unable to use it on PHP or CGI files wrapped by SBOX. Also, you cannot modify the configuration of PHP on the server using mod_rewrite.

I would like to have my page urls look nice. Can you help me please.

Hello Ben, Welcome to the forums.

I've heard of many issues with mod_rewrite and GoDaddy.
I believe they don't allow it in the way you're wanting it.

I can look into the problem for you, PM me the details to get access to your server and I'll put up a couple test files and then we'll go from there.

Have a great day, I'll be on later today is my Dad's birthday.

Thanks
