You just need to configure your Apache so that "AllowOverride All" is available for your directories.

Basically the only problematic directives should be the "php_value" ones. You can delete those. The 0.8-beta4 version should also properly detect whether your server supports it and automatically use a suitable htaccess file.

Apart frmo that, I don't use nor know phpdev5. I only know that serendipity works on a XAMPP system.

after making the change u suggested it still didnt work. in my frustration i changed every instance of allowovride none to allowoverride all, it still didnt work.

i have posted my httpd.conf file below for suggestions for configuring s9y on my laptop using windows xp localhost.

thanks

Verbatim,

Actuall you missed one occurence:

Code: Select all

 AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo 
:)

And of course don't forget to restart your Apache!
