Dear list, e-Greetings, I've developed some PHP-driven web applications. These applications will be installed on different linux-based servers (typically Debian and Redhat). Usually, after I copy the files to the server, they DO NOT WORK, so I spend hours to debug the problem. Problems are very funny, for example, the program is giving strange errors, and it is not working because "short_open_tags" are off ! I decided to write a PHP script to check if server's configuration meets my requirements. - checking whether some php extensions are loaded, eg. MCrypt. - checking wheather short_open_tags is ON - checking whether mod_rewrite is enabled - etc. Here's my question: - How do you check if .htaccess is working, *** via php code *** ? It's easy to check if .htaccess exists (@php: file_exists), but how to make sure if .htaccess is working?! - How do you check if AllowOverride is set to All in apache's configuration? Please let me know what do you think. Thank you in advance. -behzad
