Hi all,

I'm trying to set up pretty urls to my website, however when I navigate to this page:

http://www.designdiverso.com/cms/gen_htaccess.php

I get a blank page.

How shall I proceed? what shall I put in my .htaccess file?

thank you it worked, I've copy pasted, however now I get "internal server error" message.

Not sure why though I tested mod_rewrite following the directions here

http://docs.couchcms.com/concepts/pretty-urls.html

and it seemed to works as it should.

How can I solve this?

Please try deleting the very first line from the .htaccess file you created -

Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews

Does it help?

thank you it worked but now all the pages linked to the main menu doesn't open I get error 404

what could be causing this? how can this be solved?

That is strange. It appears the .htaccess file is not taking effect at all.
Just to be sure, can you confirm the .htaccess file is present within the site's root (and not within 'cms')?

Yes I confirm I've put the .htaccess inside the root folder and I get 404 when I try to navigate through the site only home page is visible, what could be the problem?

Any updates?

Allow me to take a look at your setup (you can PM me the FTP+Couch creds).

Thanks.

Instead of deleting the first line completely, I had to change it to the following and it worked -

Options -MultiViews

The CSS links are all broken but that is another matter (please use absolute paths as described in the docs).

Perhaps this case warrants a change in core from +FollowSymLinks to +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch @KK? See https://www.drupal.org/node/1269780.
