Title Body

My problem is that my .htaccess file on my local server is not being read. The settings in the VirtualHost file seem to always take precedence. I have tried the following: Enabled mod_rewrite Changed the AllowOverride to All but this causes a HTTP Error 500 Internal server error . I have tried it with various options but it always causes a 500 error. I am using a VirtualHost file on Ubuntu which looks like the following: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /web/website <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory /web/website> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> </VirtualHost> In my .htaccess file under /web/website I have the following rules (which are not being read): RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^facebookexternalhit RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ogtags.php?$1 [L,QSA] ErrorDocument 404 /404 ErrorDocument 401 /401 One thing I tried which did work was appending these rules directly into the VirtualHost file, but I would like my .htaccess file to work! Is that such a big ask? :( Edit: So I looked in my apache error.log and it says Invalid command 'Action', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration referring to my .htaccess file. There doesn't seem to be a module called Action which I can enable. Any ideas? Edit 2: I noticed that my httpd.conf file is blank. Should this matter since I am using <c
