Question

Hello, I installed twiki 4.2.0 with the self installer. But Apache does not run. I got the message: Syntax error on Line 7 of C:/Programme/TWiki/twiki.conf Invalid command ´RewriteEngine`, perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration. Do I have to change something after the successful installation with the self installer? This is my twiki.conf:

ScriptAlias /twiki/bin/ "C:/PROGRA~1/TWiki/twiki/bin/"
Alias /twiki/ "C:/PROGRA~1/TWiki/twiki/"

#rewrite url's for some of the less useful twiki url's
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/twiki$ /twiki/bin/view [R]
RewriteRule ^/twiki/$ /twiki/bin/view [R]

<Directory  "C:/PROGRA~1/TWiki/twiki/bin/">
    AllowOverride All
    Options  ExecCGI
    SetHandler cgi-script
    Allow From All

    #using TemplateLogin
    # Password file for TWiki users
    #AuthUserFile "C:/PROGRA~1/TWiki/htpasswd"
    #AuthName 'Enter your WikiName: (First name and last name, no space, no dots, capitalized, e.g. JohnSmith). Cancel to register if you do not have one.'
    #AuthType Basic
    #Order Deny,Allow
    #Deny from all
    #Require valid-user
    #Satisfy Any
</Directory>

<Directory  "C:/PROGRA~1/TWiki/twiki/pub/">
    AllowOverride All
    Allow From All
</Directory>

Can somebody help me with this?
thanks a lot
cheers
Sebastian

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

Try changing the first two lines to this:

ScriptAlias /twiki/bin   "C:/PROGRA~1/TWiki/twiki/bin"
Alias       /      "C:/PROGRA~1/TWiki/twiki/bin/view"

If that doesn't work, you could try the ApacheConfigGenerator.
