this is a apache mod. If it is turned on, you will be able to use the .htaccess file to use the nice URLs (remove the /?/ ) to know how it work I will told you to mak elittle search on google on mod_rewrite apache and/or .htaccess

I'm on Dreamhos and I just installed Frog and got mod_rewrite working. I didn't really understand the instructions in the readme file, but after a little work it's working well. My only problem was not editing and renaming the _.htaccess file in the "admin" folder.

Don't use mon_rewrite, running under IIS.

Yes, I am using ".htaccess" but not successfully, it seems! I have just installed Frog 2.2 under XAMP/WinXP "localhost", and it is working fine. However, my URLs still appear as: "http://localhost/frog/?/articles", for example, including the "/?/".

I have read some docs on .htaccess/mod_rewrite, but can not work out what is wrong! (I have renamed "_.htaccess" to ".htaccess" :)

My installation directory is .../htdocs/frog, and the "RewriteBase" directory is "/frog" (with or without trailing "/" does not seem to make a difference).

it is Frog 0.22 ;) and the probleme is ( a little weird to change that file I know) but in your index.php and admin/index.php

you have to manualy uncomment (remove the // at the begining) the line that define the base_url:
//define('BASE_URL', 'http://'.dirname($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']).'/');

philippe, I'm using mod_rewrite but is not working for me:

.htaccess (renamed) and RewriteBase / for / admin/.htaccess and RewriteBase /admin/

frog is in the root of htdocs (not a folder).

edited both index.php and uncommented BASE_URL, but still fails rendering / and /admin/page/edit/1 with 404 error.

btw, using tadpole...

Yes I successfully use mod_rewrite with lighttpd.

Here's the config (based on philippes help)

    url.rewrite = (
            "^/(frog|public|public/stylesheets|images|public/js|admin/images|admin/javascripts|admin/stylesheets|admin/themes)/(.*)$" => "/$1/$2",
            "^/admin/(.*)$" => "/admin/index.php?$1",
            "^/(.*)$" => "/index.php?$1"
    )

One thing that doesn't seem to work with my url.rewrite in lighttpd: if I try to open children by clicking on "+" in the backend, I got the following message

Not Found The requested URL /?/page/children/11/1 was not found on this server.

I'm using mod_rewrite to great effect.

However, the following would best be removed. It is a potential security issue and most decent hosting providers would probably not even allow it. Mine doesn't at any rate and since Frog doesn't need it...

Options +FollowSymLinks

Hello,

I'm trying to set up the MOD rewriting on "this website":http://www.kontent.be/AD/ but I get an error;

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@kontent.be and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/1.3.37 Server at www.kontent.be Port 80

Any help?

Bart

Mod Rewrite is essential unless there is another mechanism that can provide clean urls.

It’s simple! Follow what’ve been said:

(1) define(‘USE_MOD_REWRITE’, true);

(2) _.htaccess change to .htaccess

(3) In .htaccess, change the RewriteBase /frog/ to RewriteBase /

Now, you’ve it! :D
