mod_rewrite in Apache Server

[groupewibi]

On installation, i get an error message saying than Mod_Rewrite is not activated.
Actually, mod_rewrite is activate, but it's throught Cgi, like most of the share hosting server.
Is there is any way to pass by this issue ?

B Regards,


1. a2enmod rewrite 2. service apache2 restart

I hope you have the latest version of EspoCRM (1.0-rc4).
Please, open this URL http://<espo-url>/api/v1/Metadata. What HTTP status response do you get? 200, 401?

[groupewibi]

Hey. Got a 404, not found.
"/api/v1/index.php was not found on this server."

[tarasm]

It looks like your .htaccess file can't rewrite the URLs. Could you send me a server information (like apache, PHP version, etc.)
Also, you could try to change the .htaccess file in api/v1/.htaccess.

[groupewibi]

I have place a phpinfo there.

http://biorecords.wibigroup.net/phpinfo.php

[tarasm]

I have checked EspoCRM on CGI/FastCGI server. It works fine for me.
It looks like there is some server configuration issue. Could you check if these file exist:
/api/v1/.htaccess
/api/v1/index.php

[groupewibi]

Thank u for your respond.
Yup, both file are there and existing. I put all files as it is in the latest package of ESPO CRM.
Is there is a way to remove the control of mod_rewrite ? If the mod_rewrite is activated, it's just might be an error of control.

[tarasm]

It's not a problem with the control of md_rewrite. You have the problem with routing API of EspoCRM. In your case that's not working. For example, when open the page /api/v1/Metadata, it should redirect to /api/v1/index.php/Metadata.
Actually it's very interesting...)
Is it the correct path of "api/v1/index.php" /home/users5/g/groupewibi/www/production/biorecords/api/v1/index.php?

[groupewibi]

YEs it is.

[tarasm]

It's a very strange, because it routes to this file, but returns 404 error (you see that when open the http://<espo-url>/api/v1/Metadata).
It looks like you have one more routing or some configuration issue.
If you want I can try to fix it, but I need a file access to espocrm directory (FTP will be enough). If you ready to grant access, please send by private message.

Hi Tarsam, I am in need of same solution - can I pm ftp stuff tx

[groupewibi]

Ok. Pm Sent.

[tarasm]

Solved. It was some not standard server configuration for URL rewriting.

Here is the solution:
Open the file "api/v1/.htaccess" and replace this line:

RewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L]

to

RewriteRule ^ /api/v1/index.php [QSA,L]

Groupewibi, in your case, you have to change the following options in php.ini:

max_execution_time=300
max_input_time=300

opcache.validate_timestamps=1
opcache.revalidate_freq=0

Cheers

[groupewibi]

Thank u so much. Im changing that Asap.

Tarasm - I do not have a .htaccess in that folder (from rc4). Can you post the full contents of this file, please
