The requested URL /users/login was not found on this server in cakephp project of ubuntu

Question

I have upload a complete cakephp project on ubuntu server here I used apache2.

My project worked properly in my locak server(xampp) but in server it showing this error:

The requested URL /users/login was not found on this server.

My project is located in var/www/html.

This is my .htdocs file:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule ^$ app/webroot/  [L]
    RewriteRule (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

I need a proper solution.

Answer 1

Check that the apache configuration file has the rewrite_module line and that it's uncommented:

/etc/apache2/apache2.conf

LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.so

Also make sure your override and symlink option are correct in the above apache configuration:

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
#    Order deny,allow
#    Deny from all
</Directory>

Depending on your version of cakephp the .htaccess should like these.

app/.htacces CakePHP 2:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule    ^$    app/webroot/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1    [L]
</IfModule>

/.htacces CakePHP 3:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule    ^$    webroot/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) webroot/$1    [L]
</IfModule>

webroot/.htaccess Both versions:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
