Question

I m having small troubles and was wondering if someone can help me over the hump  I pulled a copy of a website down from Hostgator and I m trying to set it up on my local machine using  WAMP but  I keep getting an error when trying to access the site  Here is what I have tried  I went to Apaches httpd conf file and uncommented the   from LoadModule rewrite module modules mod rewrite so  Also I have changed the AllowOverride None to All  With that said  Im not sure what else to look for  Please note within my application my httaccess files do not have a     in front of them   htaccess   I m not sure if that is worth noting or not  Any ideas as to what I need to do to access my site  When I access the application I do see a cached version  white screen   but when I click the link to log in I see the 404 Not Found

If your  htaccess file is ok and the problem persist try to make the AllowOverride directive enabled in your httpd conf  If the AllowOverride directive is set to None in your Apache httpd config file  then  htaccess files are completely ignored   Example of enabled AllowOverride directive in httpd config      lt Directory   gt      Options FollowSymLinks       AllowOverride All     lt  Directory gt    Therefor restart your server

Just solved this problem  I know the question is quite old  but I just had this same problem and none of the answers above helped to solve it    Assuming the actual domain name you want to use is specified in your c  windows System32 drivers etc hosts and your configurations in apache conf httpd conf and apache conf extra httpd-vhots conf are right  your problem might be the same as mine   In Apache s htdocs directory I had a shortcut linking to the actual project I wanted to see in the browser  It turns out  Apache doesn t understand shortcuts  My solution was to create a proper symlink    In windows  and within the httdocs directory  I ran this command in the terminal   mklink  d ple  lt your project directory with index html gt     This created a proper symlink in the httpdocs directory  After restarting the Apache service and then reloading the page  I was able to see my website up
