Friendly URLs and mod_rewrite enabled but I still get 404

[Hasher]

None of friendly links work (404) and product images are also not found.

mod_rewrite is loaded according to phpinfo().

 

PrestaShop™ 1.6.0.9 

We have a VPS.

Web server version is: Apache 2.2.16
System: Debian 6.0.2

[selectshop.at]

Example link of one site giving error ? Did you changed something in link architecture ? Cache (browser and smarty) is cleared ?

[Hasher]

I did no changes in urls. There is some cache in cache/smarty/compile but I can't delete it due to low priveleges.

Anyway, caching is disabed in config. Example of friendly URL: http://windypluspolska.com/3_behrens-eurolift

 

Error example:

 

Not Found

The requested URL /kontakt was not found on this server.

Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) Server at windypluspolska.com Port 80

[selectshop.at]

Your shop has no friendly link. Seems you disabled the feature ? Take a look by passing over the mouse on the link they are showing:

 

http://windypluspolska.com/shop/product.php?id_product=33

http://windypluspolska.com/shop/category.php?id_category=32

 

If you disable friendly URL, or there is no writable .htacces available on the root of your shop, friendly URL's will not work.

 

Activate frinedly URL'S on your back-office of your Shop PS 1.4.

SOLVED:

 

I had to edit:

/etc/apache2/sites-available/default

change:

AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All

 

and restart apache.

[selectshop.at]

Well, it mod_rewrite isn't enabled on the server than equally it will not work... I'm glad you solved your problem.

@Hasher;

I just wanted to pop in and say a massive thank you for your solution. I have been banging my head for two nights and Googling trying to fix this on my [spam-filter]'s store. Worked a treat.
