Question

SEO URLs not working for Opencart - ubantu18.04

Posted April 5, 2020 274 views
Apache

I had a default Vhost conf file. Installed SSL with certbot. Couple of more Conf files I see now that got created besides the .conf file I had enabled earlier. These new conf files mention Virtual host port 443.

Am getting below error:
Not Found

The requested URL was not found on this server.

Apache/2.4.29 (Ubuntu) Server at XXXXXXX.com Port 443

I tried the following:

Changed Allow Override to All in apache2.conf and then sudo systemctl restart apache2, but I started getting internal server error on the main page itself.

Doesn’t seem to be working. plz advise

Hi there @satyadeo,

It sounds like that mod_rewrite might not be enabled. You can check this with the following command:

  • sudo apachectl -M | grep -i rewrite

If you don’t see any output, you can enable the module by running the following commands:

  • sudo a2enmod rewrite

Then run a config test to make sure that there are no problems with your Apache config:

  • sudo apachectl -t

If you get a Syntax OK message go ahead and restart Apache:

  • sudo systemctl restart apache2

Hope that this helps!
Regards,
Bobby

    Hi Bobby,

    I ran the above commands. was getting the below warning after first step:

    Could not reliably determine the server’s fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName

    So, I added “ServerName localhost” at the end in apache conf file.

    Now it returns: rewrite_module (shared)
    I got Syntax OK as well after that.

    I also changed AllowOverride All in the apache conf file.

    <Directory /var/www>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
    </Directory>

    Restarted Apache.

    SEO URL works now !!!

    Thank you so much.

    Rgds
