Step 1 - Create htaccess
Open notepad or any other text editor, paste the following code into it :
Options +FollowSymLinks
IndexIgnore */*
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /donis
# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# otherwise forward it to index.php
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php)
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php? $1 [PT,L,QSA]
|
Now on line 5 of this code, change the '/donis' with the project directory name of your project, suppose your project name is 'testproject' then it should look like this:
Now save this file as .htaccess in your project folder 'mywebapp', over here my project name was 'blog'.
Step 2 - enable mod_rewrite
Next, find the httpd.conf file, open it and find the following line:
|
#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
|
Edit that line and remove the # symbol to enable loading of the module in apache. The line should now look like this:
|
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
|
Step 3 - enable url overwriting
Now in the same httpd.conf file, search for the line
Modify it like this:
now save your file and close it.
Step 4 - edit your project configuration
Goto your Yii project directory and open the main.php file from config directory, find the following code:
|
'urlManager' => array (
'urlFormat' => 'path' ,
...
|
Modify it and add the following code on the third line:
Now your config file should be looking like this
'urlManager' => array (
'urlFormat' => 'path' ,
'showScriptName' =>false,
|
Save the file.
Step 5 - View project in browser
View your project url, eg -
