Re: [Tiki-devel] Short URLs don't work in new install

Hi Gary,

You mention having a proper .htaccess file.
Have you verified that the .htaccess file is taken into account by
apache/php?

It's an easy verification: if you put a garbage line on top of you
.htaccess file (like a line containing "qwerty"), your whole site should
stop working and display an error 500.
If it does not, you know the .htaccess file is ignored.

Reasons can be:
using nginx instead of apache
using php in modes which ignore .htaccess

Just something to check

Cheers,
J-M
