Apache Rewrite

BRENSH

I am having a small problem with the apache rewrite function and zend.
If anyone knows anything about the both could you tell me how to fix my problem.

My problem is that the server can't find my default index contoller when I type http://localhost/mysite/index/

I mean I get a 404 apache error

However it does find it when I type in
http://localhost/mysite/index.php/index/

or

http://localhost/mysite/

I am 99% sure its something to do with the apache server conf iguration over Zend.

I haven't a clue how to fix it. Just fiddle with the apache configuration file I suppose.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem

Really apreciate it thanks.

I think this might be the rule you need:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /mysite/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

I had hours of fun trying to get Zend running yesterday!

Did you uncomment the line:

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

in the Apache httpd.conf file?

Yeah I fixed the problem. Thanks for your help. It was in the Apache Configuration file. I didn't uncomment the .htaccess allow override line. I knew that already that I had to do that but the problem was I uncommented the wrong line.

Thanks anyway.

Speaking of Zend. I am just wondering what is the best way to retrieve $_GET information. Is it request::getQuery (unfiltered data) or is there a better more secure way.
