I have installed Drupal 6.2 on 2 websites on my server, on one Clean URL's works but on the other it will not work. Both websites have the same server settings.

On the one that is not working I have added an .htaccess file to prove that mod_rewrite is working (www.websitequality.co.uk/ css/ - redirects successfully to www.websitequality.co.uk/ stylesheets/).

Can anyone advise on how I try and get clean URLs working? When I visit the clean URL's part of the system it states that:

"Your system configuration does not currently support this feature. The handbook page on Clean URLs has additional troubleshooting information."

Regards,

Rick

This is the one at the bottom of Drupal's .htaccess.

http://www.websitequality.co.uk/node brings up the standard Apache 404 Not Found page (so it looks like the ErrorDocument 404 is also not working). If all is working properly then should do the same as http://www.websitequality.co.uk/?q=node.

Can you confirm the .htaccess is there and is the same (where it matters) as on your other server?

Which of the steps on the handbook page have you tried/checked?

I had the support guys at liquidweb try to help, they put following into my .htaccess:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{http_host} ^thebearer.com [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.thebearer.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

Still not working. Don't even get to try the test. (this is brand new Drupal 6.4 install. All 5.x sites work fine Clean URLs on this server).

That doesn't look like it would help much.
The Clean URL functionality basically hasn't changed since 5.x or earlier. Something to do with server config for this site I would guess..

The one time I got that error on installation seemed to be because drupal couldn't
write to the .htaccess file due to the chmod settings. After I changed the chmod,
drupal allowed clean urls in the admin section.
