Everything works if I turn this off, but then index.php shows up on every page. How do I enable Use URL Rewriting so index.php turns off and articles show up correctly?

Hi Mike,

I may have asked this question but is this the server the site will be hosted on when its completed?

Cheers
Paul

Hi,
In order to use Joomla's url rewriting, you need to rename the file in the root called htaccess.txt to

This works for linux based hosting.

Yes it is the same server.

Adding RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}] in .htaccess under /var/www/html seems to have done the trick.

Does it matter if it's the same server?

No I was thinking you were in the development stage of the site and would be moving it to a new host once site is finished

Cheers
