Drupal and Clean URLS

niccol · 26th November 2009, 06:10 PM

Just installed drupal 6.

I am getting the following message about clean urls : "Your system configuration does not currently support this feature. The handbook page on Clean URLs has additional troubleshooting information."

Before go for the suggestions in the handbook has anyone had similar experiences?

Thnx

We install Drupal on UH and other hosts (only the smaller sites on UH, though). We have no issues with clean URLs.

If you have more information I'm sure we (or others) can help you out.

The first thing to check is that the .htaccess file was uploaded properly when you installed Drupal. The second thing to check if thats fine is the RewriteBase if you are installing on a site which is

Code:

www.domainname.com

this can stay commented out. If you are using

Code:

subdomain.domain.com

I find uncommenting out RewriteBase / makes the clean URLs work.
