Siento no responderte en ingles pero no soy muy bueno con los idiomas. <br> <br>Para permitir el uso de los .htaccess debes acceder al archivo “/etc/apache2/apache2.conf” y buscar la linea “<Directory /var/www/>”, dentro de esa directiva cambiar “AllowOverride None” a “AllowOverride All” y despues reiniciar apache con “sudo service apache2 restart”. <br> <br>Y para activar el modulo rewrite de apache debes ejecutar el comando “a2enmod rewrite” y volver a reiniciar apache con “sudo service apache2 restart”.
With a search in google I found this, hope it helps. <br>https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingUseOfApacheHtaccessFiles
