    • ]]>     In default Joomla 1.5 installation, there is a file named htaccess.txt. This file will be used if we use Joomla SEO, that is option Use Apache mod_rewrite. Before it can be used, this file should be renamed to .htaccess. In Linux OS, this case is not a big problem, because it allows creation this kind of file (file name is started with “dot” character). For Windows user this case is a problem, because Windows doesn’t allow creation this kind of file. If we force it, then a warning is appear like shown below:

    Error while renaming htaccess.txt to .htaccess

    Error while renaming htaccess.txt to .htaccess

    In order to rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess, we could do it through command prompt. Syntax:

    ren [htaccess.txt directory]\htaccess.txt .htaccess

    Example:

    ren DaGu\htdocs\joomla15\htaccess.txt .htaccess

    That’s it!
