Ubuntu - Apache2 error

If you are getting this error, it means you have used rewrite engine in your script but rewrite module is disabled right now.

To solve this error, just enable the rewrite module.

If you are using ubuntu - apache2, run this command in terminal

# sudo a2enmod rewrite
# service apache2 restart

Now try again.
