Drupal Clean URLs on Mac OS X 10.6

Table of Contents

Depending on your development environment, there are various things you might have to do to enable clean URLs in Drupal -- this is how I did it using the Apache web server built in to Mac OS X 10.6:

  1. In /private/etc/apache2/users/[username].conf, change (with sudo) "AllowOverride None" to "AllowOverride All"
  2. In /Users/[username]/Sites/drupal/.htaccess, change "RewriteBase /" to "RewriteBase/drupal" (or, depending on your setup, "RewriteBase /~[username]/drupal")
  3. Restart apache: "sudo apachectl restart"
  4. Go to http://localhost/drupal/admin/config/search/clean-urls and check "Enable clean URLs"
