How to get htaccess to work on MAMP
In
httpd.conf
on/Applications/MAMP/conf/apache
, find:<Directory /> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory>
Replace
None
withAll
.Restart MAMP servers.
Go to httpd.conf
on /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache
and see if the LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
line is un-commented (without the # at the beginning)
and change these from ...
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName ...
DocumentRoot /....
</VirtualHost>
To this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin ...
ServerName ...
DocumentRoot ...
<Directory ...>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory ...>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I'm using MAMP (downloaded today) and had this problem also. The issue is with this version of the MAMP stack's default httpd.conf directive around line 370. Look at httpd.conf down at around line 370 and you will find:
<Directory "/Applications/MAMP/bin/mamp">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
You need to change: AllowOverride None To: AllowOverride All
