URL Rewriting Works but PHP doesnt take variable with GET

Question

Im having some issues with my htaccess rewriting rules after a server move.

For any reason my old directive is not working any more.

My htacess has the following line:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^ads/mobile/([a-z0-9_-]+)/?$ /ads.php?ptid=6&tube_id=$1 [NC,L]

I dont get any 500 or 404 error. The url bar shows the url in rewrite mode OK, but php doesnt take the GET var from the rewritten url.

If I access to ads.php with the vars on the url, it works perfect.

Any idea? I changed from NC,L to QSA and also I deleted the "/" before ads.php but nothing works.

I will aprreciate any help. I searched for something similar here but nothing works for me.

This is n working example RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L], if it helps. — The Alpha

That is most likely due to enabling of MultiViews option.

Turn it off by putting this line on top of your .htaccess:

Options -MultiViews

Finally it was my fault. It didnt work because I didnt change from NONE to ALL the allowoverride settings on the file /etc/apache2/(site)

It works now! Thanks
