Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apache2
The configuration file under /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default (or
000-default) is set up so that the allow override all setting wont work
when directories or files under /var/www are called as a site.
The values at install are :
DocumentRoot /var/www/
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride none
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
Whereas, for mod_rewrite to work correctly, they should be
DocumentRoot /var/www/
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
For the record, I have chaged the first and second AllowOverride to All.
The caps A seems to be *VERY* important.
