installation problem or apache configuration?

Asked by Mauro

I installed this locally on my ubuntu 9.10 by this command:

cd /var/www
wget -O - http://launchpad.net/chive/trunk/0.2.0/+download/chive_0.2.0.tar.gz|tar -xzp

I setup the proper permissions on the folder /var/www/chive but when i type http://localhost/chive on my browser (FF3.5) ,
I get this answer "the request URL /chive/site/login was not found on this server". now I had a doubt..... the apache mod_rewrite.
by defautl it's disable in ubuntu, then I activated the mod rewrite with these commands:

cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
ln -s /etc/apache2/mods-available/rewrite.load rewrite.load
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

but the result is the same.. "the request URL /chive/site/login was not found on this server"...
I am not an expert and I do not know how to solve the problem.
but I like to use chve to administer MySQL database.
Can you help me to solve the problem?
Thanks

You must enable the AllowOverride directive in the /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default file.

<Directory /var/www/>
   Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
    allow from all
</Directory>

Replace "AllowOverride None" with "AllowOverride All" and restart your apache.
Let me know if this works for you.
