  • How do you change this status "Rewritable module No" to "Rewritable module Yes" on the pre-installation page coz it is the one failing me to continue
  • Hello Martin Ojambo,

    I think it's about apache module rewrite,
    Under linux you can commonly find those modules under /etc/apache2/mods-available

    So, under shell, you would need to:
    > cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
    > sudo ln -s ../mods-available/rewrite.load


    then restart the server:
    > apache2ctl restart
    or if apache2ctl isn't available do a:
    > ps aux|grep apache
    or
    > ps aux|grep httpd
    and see in the list dispayed where is the apache/httpd process and copy the path with the argument restart, like for example:

    >sudo /usr/sbin/apache2 -k restart
