Apache2 .htaccess

Apache2

[TheWebographer]

I recently installed Apache2 on my win32 machine. Trouble is, it does not seem to be reading .htaccess files like my apache1.3 did.

I can get the directives to work in the .conf file so I know they are OK. But when I remove them from the .conf and add them to a .htaccess its a no-go.

Has anyone here run into a similar problem? Any ideas?

Thankyou in advance!

Is your new httpd.conf set up correctly to use .htacces files with the correct "AllowOverride" seting?

Check it for AccessFileName & AllowOverride directives.

mod_rewrite is not working well on win32 for me.
Anyone else have seen this problem?
