CakePHP can not find webroot/css/js files

Question

I just download via svn controle version a CakePHP 2.5.2 app to a test server .

After database configuration, the app does not open the css files located at app/webroot dir (bootstrap, jquery, main.css).

Is the some aditional config parameter ?

I try changing the owner but did not work.

Mke sure app/tmp is writable and that debug is at least 2 in /app/Config/core.php Configure::write('debug', 2); — Inigo Flores

It looks like a mod_rewrite problem.

Make sure you have .htaccess in your DocumentRoot, and your Apache server is configured properly.

Everything is described in detail in the CookBook.

CakePHP 2.x URL Rewriting

Edit: As described in the comments, it was solved by the OP by replacing the Directory definition in the apache vhost configuration file (/etc/apache2/sites-available/default.conf) with the following:

<Directory /var/www/> 
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews 
    AllowOverride FileInfo 
    Order Allow,Deny
    Allow from all 
</Directory>

mod_rewrite is enabled checking with apache2ctl -M and these are the rules present in the .htacces:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>     RewriteEngine on     RewriteRule    ^$    webroot/    [L]     RewriteRule    (.*) webroot/$1    [L] </IfModule>

Solved! after edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.conf adding :

<Directory /var/www/>             Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews             # changed from None to FileInfo             AllowOverride FileInfo             Order allow,deny             allow from all     </Directory>
