Webune customer benefit from apache's mod_rewrite. Every customer being hosted by our shared services has automatically mod_rewrite enabled. However, if you are still not sure whether you have this free service from Webune, you can confirm if its enable by following this simple guide. In this tutorial, you will be create two files, the first one called rewrite.php and the second one .htaccess - I will be using Windows XP notepad to create my files.
DEMO: You can test how it work in our server, the link to the demo is at the bottom of this post
NOTE: If you prefer, you can download the complete script in the attachment provided on this post by our Webune Support Team. Or you can create the files yourself, if you choose to create the files yourself, continue reading...
We will be creating two files:
- rewrite.php
- .htaccess
IMPORTANT: its important that you do not change the name of the files we are creating on this post. if for example you choose not to call rewrite.php and choose to call this file something else like testing.php for example, it will not work. YOU MUST name the files as specified on this tutorial, otherwise, you will have problems. so follow instructions carefully
1. Open a blank notepad document
2. Copy and paste the following code into the blank notepad
<h2 align=center>
<?php /* mod_rewrite Test Page *//* Copyright 2006 Webune.com */
if($_GET['link']==1){echo '<span style="color:red">You are not using mod_rewrite - Try LINK2</span>';}
elseif($_GET['link']==2){echo'<span style="color:green">Congratulations!! You are using Apache mod_rewrite</span>';}
else{echo '<span style="color:blue">Linux Apache mod_rewrte Test Tutorial</span>';} ?>

<p>
<a href="rewrite.php?link=1" style="color:red"><strong>LINK 1</strong></a>
= LINK 1 Does NOT use Mod Rewrite. LINK 1 uses standard URL:
<u>rewrite.php?link=1</u>
</p>
<p>
<a href="link2.html" style="color:green"><strong>LINK 2</strong></a>
= LINK 2 - Yes, Uses Apache's Mod Rewrite using this URL::
<u>link2.html</u><br><br><br>
How this works: both links are for this same page, except they both are different. link one is without the mod_rewrite and link2 is using mod_rewrite. Link1 show the php file, with with mod_rewrite we are mascarading the php file into a html file. you can use whatever type of extension you want, you can change it to .htm or .shtml etc... all you have to do is to make sure you also chang it in the .htaccess file
</p>
<p>NOTE: when you click on LINK2, you should see a message that says: Congratulations!! You are using Apache mod_rewrite</p>
<p>500 ERROR: If you get a 500 Error, this means you made a typo or mistake creating the files OR you are not allowed to use .htaccess</p>
<p>404 ERROR: if you get a 404 error, then this means you do not have Mod_Rewrite on this server.</p>

3. Now Save the file as "rewrite.php" - When you 'Save As..' in notepad, be sure to put quotes when you are saving the file, otherwise, notepad will add a .txt extension to the file, like this: rewrite.php.txt - is should only be rewrite.php, thats why you have to include the quotes
4. Now create a file called .htaccess - to make this type of file, open another blank notepad document
5. Copy and paste the following code into the .htaccess file:
# SCRIPT CREATED BY WEBUNE.COM # THIS WORKS WITH rewrite.php FILE # READ MORE AT: http://www.webune.com/forums/how-to-test-check-if-mod-rewrite-is-enabled-t40.html RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^link([^/]*).html$ rewrite.php?link=$1 [L]
6. Save as ".htaccess" (if you are using notepad as I am, make sure to put quotes in between .htaccess example: ".htaccess" otherwise, notepad will create a file called .htacces.txt and we don't need the .txt at the end only .htaccess)
7. Now upload these two file into a new directory in your site. for example: test/
8. Open the rewrite.php file with your browser to the location you just uploaded. for example:
http://www.your_website.com/test/rewrite.php
9. you should see two links, LINK1 and LINK2 Click on LINK1 and the same page will display.
10. Now click on LINK2 and the same page will display with the a mod_rewrite message. If it doesnt you either did something wrong. Check your steps. If you checked your steps, refresh your browser, and if refreshing doesnt work, then you dont have mod_rewrite enabled or you dont have permission to run .htaccess files on your website. talk to your web hosting company to make sure they allow apache .htaccess - Some hosting companies do not allow .htaccess because some people take advantage of this feature, so many web hosting companies block their users from using. so check with them
If you get a 500 Error, then you do not have mod_rewrite enabled in your server. Or if mod_rewrite is not working for you and you are a Webune customer, please contact our support team to assist you.
