Bug Description

Binary package hint: drupal6

In order to enable the clean URL feature in Drupal, please change one line in /etc/drupal/6/htaccess and add the rewrite module of Apache2 somewhere to the install script of drupal6:
a2enmod rewrite

The line 97 of /etc/drupal/6/htaccess should be changed from this one:
# RewriteBase /drupal
to this:
  RewriteBase /drupal6

Otherwise the clean URL feature does not work. I'm using 9.04 with drupal6 (6.10-1)

Thank you for this.

I spent hours attempting to get clean urls to work, this post fixed it for me.

Again, thank you for taking the time to post.

Cheers,
Steve

You can add repositories or download .deb manually. Soon will available for karmic.

Please MOTU to provide a task for jaunty and karmic.

I made a debdiff which fixes this issue. It built fine on my-ppa.

This is a configuration item that admins can change if they prefer. We should not change this right before release and this doesn't qualify for an SRU. We should do this early in the Lucid cycle, not now.

Please apply "a2enmod rewrite", the rest (change in .htaccess) can be done as a Drupal admin.

unsubscribing u-u-s as there is no debdiff to sponsor at the moment.
Please subscribe u-u-s again when you have something to sponsor.

Thanks,
