I recently installed a new droplet and followed the tutorial on the site for the installation of cakePHP on Ubuntu. I have confirmed that i have the url rewrite module in apache2 enabled (shows as shared in terminal), but when I go to my site I get a warning that URL rewriting is not properly configured. Any help would be appreciated.

This question was answered by @lancasterjones:
What did the trick for me was modifying the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf Change:
<Directory /var/www/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory>To:
<Directory /var/www/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory>Reload apache after you modify it.
