Fresh install, mod_rewrite and Apache as FastCGI

[Eltom]

Hi all,

is there a difference between the mod_rewrite module of Apache and $_SERVER['REDIRECT_HTTP_MOD_REWRITE'] or $_ENV['REDIRECT_HTTP_MOD_REWRITE']?

Processwire fails to detect mod_rewrite, but $_SERVER/$_ENV['REDIRECT_HTTP_MOD_REWRITE'] is "on".

Does it have to do with Apache running as FastCGI? I'm totally stuck here, because every other system using rewrites works fine on the machine, only Processwire fails. From phpinfo():

$_ENV["REDIRECT_HTTP_MOD_REWRITE"] On

$_SERVER["REDIRECT_HTTP_MOD_REWRITE"] On

Thanks for any hint!

Thomas

So, you are saying, PW doesn't run with Apache as FastCGI? 

What can I do if the hoster doesn't allow to switch to CGI?

What he's implying is that it does help if you've searched for an answer first and report whether solutions provided in those threads worked for you or not

From the threads linked to by Soma and the ones below, PW does work with FastCGI. But, as you can tell from the threads, there could be issues..

Ok, sorry folks.

I havent't tried to just ignore the error mentioned above - so I did it...

Now PW runs fine. Maybe PW is able to check the REDIRECT_HTTP_MOD_REWRITE on installation in the future, too?
