I am using WAMP with MySQL 5, PHP 5.2.6, Apacha 2.2.11 in Win XP Pro. I am NOT using IIS.

I can get drupal to install but can not enable Clean URLs. Documentation is good for IIS and Apache on linux but what do I do with WAMP on XP?

Many thanks.

Yes, this is a problem. I have two partitions both of which are win XP.
In one I have clean url working almost by itself and in the other it simply cannot be set up.

It bugs me too.

first thing to do after installing WAMP
- click the try icon » Apache » Apache modules » rewrite_module (should be checked)

if using a Virtual Host ensure the <Directory> has AllowOverride all

thanks, i checked the rewrite module and then Drupal print that message: Su servidor pasó con éxito la prueba sobre soporte de esta característica.

I agree: first thing to do after installing WAMP: - click the try icon » Apache » Apache modules » rewrite_module (should be checked)
