Not installing or installing erroneously

zforest

Whenever I go to
mySite.com/vr
I get redirected to
mySite.com/vr/install
with a page not found error

I followed the instructions and did add <directory> ... </directory> to apache2. In fact, I changed httpd.conf of apache2 even. But still doesn't work.

Did restart apache

However, if I do
mySite.com/vr/index.php, I can install and actually upload some models. But eventually publishing doesn't show the 3d models because all the model links are having 'index.php' as part of URL.

What else can I do?

@zforest Do you have a .htaccess file in mySite.com/vr/ ?
It looks like if you have to add index.php to your URL, mod_rewrite is not installed or not configured.

zforest

In my apache2's httpd.conf

the line for the rewrite module is not commented out

In addition to my site's .htaccess file, I also set the httpd.conf's <directory>...</directory> for htdocs to have the same AllowRewrite All.

and I restarted apache regardless.

Is there some way to debug ? Could I have a php script that tells me whether if rewrite module is really enabled or not?

@zforest Create a php file in your web root and add the following line to it: phpinfo();
Then open the php file in your browser and search for mod_rewrite .

Previously I was placing IdealSpaceVR in wordpress. Now I'm setting up a new app (IdeaSpaceVR) anew like this:
https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/infrastructure/lamp/administration/create-custom-application-php/

I also created a .htaccess file at /opt/bitnamic/apps/vr/htdocs/.htaccess
with
<Directory /opt/bitnami/apps/vr/htdocs>
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>

Now I get "internal access error" instead of 404

If I remove the .htaccess, I can see the regular IdeaSpaceVR splash page but no installation

So still stuck

@zforest Use the .htaccess file which is shipped with IdeaSpaceVR:

DirectoryIndex index.php

<FilesMatch "artisan|composer.phar|composer.json|composer.lock|package.json|web.config|.env|gulpfile.js|laravel.log">
    Order Allow,Deny
    Deny from all
</FilesMatch>

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>

    # Do not allow directory listings
    Options -Indexes

    RewriteEngine On

    # Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

    # Handle Front Controller...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
