I am attempting to verify I have URL rewriting working correctly. So far, I have activated (in Apache) the modules, rewrite_module, headers_module, filter_module.

I also enabled logging in C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.9\conf\httpd.conf with the line

LogLevel debug rewrite:trace8


I Restarted All Services.

In C:\wamp\www, I have the file 'test.php', below:
<?php

echo "hello world!";

?>
In C:\wamp\www, I have the file '.htaccess', below:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.so>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ test.php [L]
</IfModule>


I have verified my .htaccess file is getting used by adding garbage to the top of the file. For example, the below produces an Internal Server Error:

AHHHHHHHH
<IfModule mod_rewrite.so>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ test.php [L]
</IfModule>

I can also find the debug line in the appache_error.log:
[Mon Feb 02 22:33:54.531848 2015] [core:alert] [pid 9228:tid 816] [client 127.0.0.1:58321] C:/wamp/www/.htaccess: Invalid command 'AHHHHHHHH', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

When I navigate to "[127.0.0.1];, the file test.php is not served. Instead, I receive a 404 Not found error:
The requested URL /foobar.php was not found on this server.

I am not receiving a pass-through log message of any kind which would indicate the match statement is found or rewrite rule occurring. Here are the last few lines of my apache_error.log after visiting the navigating to the URL above:
[Mon Feb 02 22:43:49.577883 2015] [authz_core:debug] [pid 9228:tid 816] mod_authz_core.c(799): [client 127.0.0.1:58391] AH01626: authorization result of Require all granted: granted
[Mon Feb 02 22:43:49.577883 2015] [authz_core:debug] [pid 9228:tid 816] mod_authz_core.c(799): [client 127.0.0.1:58391] AH01626: authorization result of <RequireAny>: granted
[Mon Feb 02 22:43:49.579883 2015] [:error] [pid 9228:tid 816] [client 127.0.0.1:58391] script 'C:/wamp/www/foobar.php' not found or unable to stat

What am I doing wrong/why isn't he test.php being served?

Hi A,

Url rewriting works just fine. So it must be something wrong with your RewriteRule.

Sorry, I am no expert on those.
