Hello folks;
i'm having issue using the rewriting rule on my dokuwiki installation. I'm trying to change this ugly link "
http://isd-imdserver/dokuwiki/doku.php/start" to something friendly like "imdwiki" so users can remember easy.
I want users to be able to type "imdwiki" in their browser and that leads them to the full link.
I followed the instructions in the rewriting and changed the Nice URL to use ".htaccess" and also edited the ".htaccess" and edited "/conf/local.php" to make the rewrite rule 2 per instructions but i'm still couldn't get it to work when i type "
http://imdwiki" in the browser.
My dokuwiki folder is this: /var/www/html/dokuwiki
I created a soft link to the dokuwiki folder above to imdwiki
Any help with this would be great.
Here's my ".htaccess":
## Enable this to restrict editing to logged in users only
## You should disable Indexes and MultiViews either here or in the
## global config. Symlinks maybe needed for URL rewriting.
#Options -Indexes -MultiViews +FollowSymLinks
## make sure nobody gets the htaccess, README, COPYING or VERSION files
<Files ~ "^([\._]ht|README$|VERSION$|COPYING$)">
<IfModule mod_authz_host>
Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_authz_host>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</IfModule>
</Files>
## Don't allow access to git directories
<IfModule alias_module>
RedirectMatch 404 /\.git
</IfModule>
## Uncomment these rules if you want to have nice URLs using
## $conf['userewrite'] = 1 - not needed for rewrite mode 2
