Hi Guys,

I am using "Acidfree Module", there i have link "My Print List" that has the url "?q=node/4&vp=1". I want that, when i click on this link, the url in the address bar should be like this "user/1/admin/printlist". How I can create rewrite rule like this in .htaccess file.

Waiting for appreciation for your help.
Crinch.

Hi Guys,

Thank you for your attention, but i have open the setting file "Clean URL", but the options for selecting the enabling or disabling the "Clean URL" is not being selecting.
If I click on the link "Run the clean URL test", then the page is not found message appears with the URL "http://localhost/rewritedrupal/admin/settings/clean-urls" in the address bar.

Now, What should i do to implement the rewrite on drupal.

I really appreciate your help and attention and wait for the help.

Thanks
Crinch

This means your problem is external to Drupal. Your host does not appear to allow rewrite directives in the .htaccess file. Drupal tested rewrite, and the test failed.

You didn't say what webserver software you're running, or where the site is hosted, so it's difficult to provide any additional advice other than to take this issue to your hosting provider's support staff.

Here on drupal.org there is a really big handbook on configuration with instructions about settings and specifically clean URLs.

If the solutions there don't work for you - they will not work for your host, and your only solution is to change to a host that does support it.

Hi Guys,

I have activated the "Clean URL". Please tell me the drupal .htaccess file has the same rewrite mechanism or different.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

If I download the fresh copy of the drupal, then clean URL is activated. But if i download the fresh copy of my online site locally then I face the problem and click on the "Run the clean URL test" then the
page is not found error is shown with drupal original logout theme instead of the site logout page with the URL "http://localhost/client_site/admin/settings/clean-urls".

I am using apache locally, can anybody tell me, what's the reason.
Waiting for your help and thank you for your attention.

Crinch.
