I have followed all except the last line of that link which is # If you are installing CakePHP into a user directory (http:// example.com/~username), you'll need to modify the .htaccess file in the base directory of your CakePHP installation. Just add the line "RewriteBase /~myusername/"
in uniform server the structure is C:\Uniform Server\udrive\www\fb00\ [here i have app, cake,vendors etc and the htaccess file ] so eith that structure localhost points to the www root folder where I have multiple sites. So i added as per the instruction above and get the htaccess file in the application root to be <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^$ app/webroot/ [L] RewriteRule (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L] RewriteBase /~fb00/ </IfModule> so is that right, I dont know what else is wrong, I have mod rewrite working for other things ok. here is my server log error [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: W:/www/fb00/, referer: http://localhost/ thanks for any help this is my second night of frustration with nothing working. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
