As other users explained here about the usage of allowoveride directive  which is used to give permission to  htaccess usage  one thing I want to point out that never use allowoverride all if other users have access to write  htaccess instead use allowoveride as to permit certain modules   Such as AllowOverride AuthConfig mod rewrite Instead of  AllowOverride All   Because module like mod mime can render your server side files as plain text

SuSE Linux Enterprise Server Make sure you are editing the right file https   www suse com documentation sles11 book sle admin data sec apache2 configuration html  httpd conf The main Apache server configuration file  Avoid changing this file  It primarily contains include statements and global settings  Overwrite global settings in the pertinent configuration files listed here  Change host-specific settings  such as document root  in your virtual host configuration   In such case vhosts d   conf must be edited

The main goal of AllowOverride is for the manager of main configuration files of apache  the one found in  etc apache2  mainly  to decide which part of the configuration may be dynamically altered on a per-path basis by applications   If you are not the administrator of the server  you depend on the AllowOverride Level that theses admins allows for you  So that they can prevent you to alter some important security settings   If you are the master apache configuration manager you should always use AllowOverride None and transfer all google based example you find  based on  htaccess files to Directory sections on the main configuration files  As a  htaccess content for a  htaccess file in  my path to a directory is the same as a  lt Directory  my path to a directory gt  instruction  except that the  htaccess dynamic per-HTTP-request configuration alteration is something slowing down your web server  Always prefer a static configuration without  htaccess checks  and you will also avoid security attacks by  htaccess alterations    By the way in your example you use  lt Directory gt  and this will always be wrong  Directory instructions are always containing a path  like  lt Directory   gt  or  lt Directory C  gt  or  lt Directory  my path to a directory gt   And of course this cannot be put in a  htaccess as a  htaccess is like a Directory instruction but in a file present in this directory  Of course you cannot alter AllowOverride in a  htaccess as this instruction is managing the security level of  htaccess files

In case you are on Ubuntu  edit the file  etc apache2 apache2 conf  here we have an example of  var www     lt Directory  var www  gt          Options Indexes FollowSymLinks         AllowOverride None         Require all granted  lt  Directory gt    and change it to    lt Directory  var www  gt          Options Indexes FollowSymLinks         AllowOverride All         Require all granted  lt  Directory gt    then   sudo service apache2 restart   You may need to also do sudo a2enmod rewrite to enable module rewrite

I also meet this problem  and I found the solution as 2 step below  1  In sites-enabled folder of apache2  you edit in Directory element by set  AllowOverride all   should be  all  not  none   2  In kohana project in www folder  rename  example htaccess  to   htaccess   I did it on ubuntu  Hope that it will help you

On Linux  in order to relax access to the document root  you should edit the following file    etc httpd conf httpd conf   And depending on what directory level you want to relax access to  you have to change the directive  AllowOverride None   to  AllowOverride All   So  assuming you want to allow access to files on the  var www html directory  you should change the following lines from    lt Directory   var www html  gt   AllowOverride None  lt  Directory gt    to   lt Directory   var www html  gt   AllowOverride All  lt  Directory gt

If you are using Linux you may edit the code in the directory of    etc httpd conf httpd conf   now  here find the code line kinda like     AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in  htaccess files    It can be  All    None   or any combination of the keywords      Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit       AllowOverride None     Controls who can get stuff from this server        Order allow deny     Allow from all   lt  Directory gt    Change the AllowOveride None  to AllowOveride All  Now now you can set any kind of rule in your  httacess file inside your directories if any other operating system just try to find the file of httpd conf and edit it
