How to enable apache Mod_Rewrite module?

To enable “mod_rewrite” module on apache server, you could use the command for CentOS:

a2enmod rewrite

Afterwards, please restart your webserver with the command:

service httpd restart

Be aware that you need a rewrite rule, which you might place in a .htaccess – file in your documentroot like for example:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

For CWP

/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -M|grep rewrite

if you get output like “rewrite_module (static)” then you have it installed.

Otherwise add

<Directory "/home/ACCOUNT_USERNAME/public_html">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

/usr/local/apache/conf.d/vhosts/MYDOMAIN.COM.conf

BigDump Usage | How to upload large database

Upload large sized database using BigDump.

  1. Download and unzip bigdump.zip on your computer.
  2. Open bigdump.php in a text editor.
  3. Update database configuration 
    // Database configuration

$db_server   = 'localhost';
$db_name     = '';
$db_username = '';
$db_password = '';
  4. Optional settings (For example, $filename) 
    // OPTIONAL SETTINGS 

$filename           = '';     // Specify the dump filename to suppress the file selection dialog
$ajax               = true;   // AJAX mode: import will be done without refreshing the website
$linespersession    = 3000;   // Lines to be executed per one import session
$delaypersession    = 0;      // You can specify a sleep time in milliseconds after each session
                              // Works only if JavaScript is activated. Use to reduce server overrun
  5. Create the working directory (e.g. tempFile) on your web server
  6. Upload bigdump.php and the database file (*.sql or *.gz) via FTP to the working directory.
  7. Run the bigdump.php from your web browser via URL like http://www.yourdomain.com/tempFile/bigdump.php.
  8. Now you can select the file to be imported from the listing of your working directory. Click “Start import” to start.
  9. BigDump will start every next import session automatically if JavaScript is enabled in your browser.
  10. Relax and wait for the script to finish. Do NOT close the browser window!
  11. IMPORTANT: Delete the working directory (e.g. tempFile) to remove bigdump.php and your dump files from your web server.
