    Hi, I'm all new to WPMU. I'm trying to make a fresh install on a WAMP server. Everything goes fine until after the installation I try to login. I get a 500 error and the error log goes like:

    [Thu Feb 26 20:03:17 2009] [alert] [client 127.0.0.1] C:/wamp/www/wordpress-mu/.htaccess: Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration, referer: http://localhost.localdomain/wordpress-mu/index.php

    How can I fix this?
    Thanks in advance.

    So have you turned on the rewrite module in WAMP, its turned off by default if my memory serves me correctly

    This is how I fixes my 500 Internel Server Error on my mediatemple (gs) server.
    How?
    Default .htaccess its wrong!, but ok, after entering the database data mu wordpress warns us about it.

    Original

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase BASE/

    Change for

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    Hope to help u guys and girls.

    Those are not errors they are warnings.

    You have error/warnings set to display to the "screen" which is not recommended for production servers. Change your PHP settings to log to a file instead.
