drilonb, thanks. Yes I'm sure that would work too but it would of course end up applying to all of my vhosts instead of just this one vhost. That's why I created a Directory stanza just for this particular vhost so I could limit the scope since this is the only vhost where processwire is being used currently.

Ok, I figured it out. The "AllowOverride All" has to go inside a Directory stanza for the path that holds this vhost. Once I created that and added the AllowOverride All then everything works correctly.

When I try to place: AllowOverride All inside this VirtualHost stanza in httpd.conf then the webserver refuses to start. I don't see any message in the access or error log. When I try to start Apache manually then I see this: Syntax error on line 1016 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: AllowOverride not allowed here

Here's what I did so far. I d/l the tarball and extract it under /var/www/html/vhost1 I make a symlink: ln -s ryancramer-processwire-ProcessWire-1d2b19e processwire I run the installer: http://localhost/processwire Install succeeds. I access the basic example site: http://localhost/processwire No local links on the page work. Only external links work. For example: http://localhost/processwire/about Not Found The requested URL /processwire/about/ was not found on this server. .

I have multiple sites setup using Apache VirtualHosts like this: /var/www/html/vhost1 /var/www/html/vhost2 ... These sites are all different purposes but same owner. They maybe could share templates and styles. When I look at the zipfile or the tarball it has a top level directory of: ryancramerdesign-ProcessWire-1d2b19e/... Do I keep this top level directory or do I just extract everything under it into my existing vhostX directories? So where should I install processwire to begin using it?
