Prestashop 1.7.3.4 - Friendly URL

[Apury]

Hello there!

I'm running PS 1.7.3.4 on ubuntu 16.04.4 x64 with LAMP (php 7.1) 

I've enabled friendly URL after the installation of my shop. From index.php it then changed to /en/ yielding in 

Not Found

The requested URL /en/ was not found on this server.

rewrite is enabled and active. The .htaccess reads 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_env.c>
SetEnv HTTP_MOD_REWRITE On
</IfModule>

RewriteEngine on

 

I've regenerated the .htaccess by deleting the old one and enabling / disabling friendly urls. I'm utterly confused. 

 

I solved the problem by adding the Allowoverride All directive to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

<Directory /var/www/prestashop/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>

Yes, this solved my problem as well.

Additionally, you will also have to enable mod_filter; otherwise you will get the error:

.../.htaccess: Invalid command 'AddOutputFilterByType', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

In Ubuntu just run:

a2enmod filter

 

Thanks for posting this.

 

Best regards
