For Debian use

sudo a2enmod rewrite

For Windows

  1. Find the httpd.conf file (usually you will find it in a folder called conf, config or something along those lines)
  2. Inside the httpd.conf file uncomment the line LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
  3. Also find the line ClearModuleList is uncommented then find and make sure that the line AddModule mod_rewrite.c is not commented out.

restart your apache service and you are cool to go
