Search engine friendly URLs in mambo with apache 2

Written by Erik Brakkee

Got search engine friendly URLs to work now. I had to do the following things to get it working: Rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess in my mambo installation Add 'Options FollowSymLinks' to that file, otherwise Apache 2 does not accept URL rewriting allowing of .htaccess files for the mambo directory by specifying 'AllowOverride All' in my default-server.conf (/etc/apache2) loading of the URL rewriting module in Apache by adding the rewrite module to the list of modules in /etc/sysconfig/apache2 Also submitted the link to this site to google to see if it will work now.
