Hello Forum!
I have searched through the posts that deal with XAMPP locally installed and trouble with pretty URLs here in the forum, and also other sites to find a solution to the problem with pretty URL locally on Mac - but I have found no cure yet...
So, if anyone might happen to have had the same problem and then also a solution, I would appreciate very much a reply…
I have installed XAMPP for Mac OS X 1.7.3, on my computer with following specification:
Apache 2.2.14, MySQL 5.1.44, PHP 5.3.1, Perl 5.10.1, ProFTPD 1.3.3, phpMyAdmin 3.2.4, OpenSSL 0.9.8k, GD 2.0.35, Freetype 2.3.5, libjpeg 6b, libpng 1.2.32, libungif-4.1.4, zlib 1.2.3, expat 2.0.1, Ming 0.4.2, Webalizer 2.01-10, pdf class 009e, mod_perl 2.0.4, SQLite 3.6.3, gdbm-1.8.3, libxml-2.7.2, libxslt-1.1.24, openldap-2.3.43, imap-2004g, gettext-0.16.1, libmcrypt-2.5.8, mhash-0.9.9, zziplib-0.13.48, bzip2-1.0.5, freetds-0.64
As far as I understand, all Couch features should work here....
But this happens:
When I turn on pretty URL in the Couch configuration file, the links to the pages are not working (<cms:show k_page_link />) : I can click, but nothing happens….
I have also made .htaccess file and wrote in it the content from http://www.yoursite.com/couch/gen_htaccess.php
With .htacess file, either in the root of local site or within couch folder, local site would not work. I couldn't even find the log-in site of the couch, and if I would call another site, it was just not there….(I am not sure anymore if the error was 500 or 400 or both during these trials, depending on wher I was with my trials)
Than, I followed the steps for enabling mod_rewrite in XAMPP ( form another forum) and did the following:
In the httpd.conf file, that I found 2 times within XAMPP folder
was uncommented anyway,
but I have changed
to
in those two files.....
Well, now, when I turn pretty URLs on, I can see the login-in site of the Couch, and I can log in….But I see a blank page when I call
http://www.yoursite.com/couch/gen_htaccess.php
And, when I make an .haccess file and put it in the root of the local site or within Couch folder - it does not disturb anything - meaning: I can log in the Couch and see all the sites- but Pretty URL´s are still not working - the page links are dead, not going anywhere when I click on them...even though, I can see for a millisecond the pretty URL name of the page in the browser address .....
Would anyone know the solution?
Thanks in advance
Tanja
