Errors when installing new site

[houseofdeadleg]

Hi all, it's been a while since I've had to make a new PW site, normally it's a piece o' cake, but I'm getting a load of different errors this time round.

I've tried bit teh Master and Dev downloads, and each time I get an error "Unable to determine if Apache mod_rewrite (required by ProcessWire) is installed. On some servers, we may not be able to detect it until your .htaccess file is place. Please click the 'check again' button at the bottom of this screen, if you haven't already." on teh compatibility check screen. I've tried ignoring this, changing the htaccess file, nothing clears the error.

When using an old site profile I also get loads of missing table errors, even though the tables are definitely there. I presume this is related to the above mod_rewrite error – SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'xxx' doesn't exist.

I did manage to get a blank profile to install, but even then I couldnt access the admin at all.

Any help would be much appreciated. I have searched the forum and found a couple of similar errors mentioned, but nothing in those threads made anyt difference.

Have you checked if your server supports mod_rewrite?
You can check this with phpinfo(), then simply search for rewrite.
