3. If you find you are having issues with URL rewriting. Remove the index.php file that is bundled with SilverStripe. As we are using Apache web server's URL rewriting this file is not required (and in fact can result in problems when using apache 2.4+ as in the latest versions of WAMP). The other option is to enable the mod_access_compat module for apache which improves compatibility of newer versions of Apache with SilverStripe.
3. Apache rewrite (mod_rewrite) isn't working and it's installed (prior to SilverStripe 3.1.11)
Due to some changes to `mod_dir` in [Apache 2.4](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_dir.html#DirectoryCheckHandler) (precedence of handlers), index.php gets added to the URLs as soon as you navigate to the homepage of your site. Further requests are then handled by index.php rather than `mod_rewrite` (framework/main.php). To fix this place the following within the `mod_rewrite` section of your .htaccess file:
```
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# Turn off index.php handling requests to the homepage fixes issue in apache >=2.4
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex disabled
</IfModule>
# ------ #
</IfModule>
```
