If you do not have mod_rewrite enabled this can occur. You can make sure it’s enabled by running the following commands:

sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo service apache2 restart

Thanks for response…I have enabled mod_rewrite and .htaccess was missing so added default drupal .htaccess file. Its working now.
