Re: 11.04 trashed all my localhost links!!!

[paulbuk]

So ok, I decided to upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04 from MearKat and 11.04 trashes my localhost projects - any resolve as I don't want to really start all over again as I've spent a good 20 hours.
My SQL DB's are still there but all the internal links both front and backend show to good old:


"Not Found

The requested URL /project01/admin/modules was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.17 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80"


I would like to resolve the problem, can any onwe give any quick fixes for me??


"If it ain't broke don't fix it" rules here but I had faith in the 11.04 upgrade so went forward at the w/end. Usually I wait at least 6 weeks before doing so.

Not really enough to go on at the mo BUT I would have though any virtualhosts defined in sites-available and quite probably your hosts file would have suffered some damage :(

You do keep backups right?

Backsups... of course, just don't want to have to put antoehr hat on.

Anyone care to offer a simple fix to resolve the lost localhost connections?

Error stems from Apache2 re-install in DIR in ETC dir, ie: AllowOverride All and NOT none.
If running Linux and you have re-installed Ubuntu 11.04, suggest you open Default and cut and paste below into file then save.
This resolved all my virtual sites to normal, pre-upgrade.

Default file should read:

ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost


DocumentRoot /var/www

AllowOverride All

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/

---ends.

Hope that helps any peeps in future.
