* What is mod_rewrite:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.htmlIf you want to test if your webhoster supports mod_rewrite you can do the following:
1st Check if mod_rewrite is installed on your Server. Just open eXV2-tools in adminarea of your eXV2-installation.
Go to "PHPInfo" and search for "mod_rewrite" without the ""

If you find mod_rewrite in the list of "Loaded Modules" the first fundamental thing is present.
2nd check if mod_rewrite is configured correctly
Make a subdirectory named "testpath" on your webspace and upload a file named ".htaccess" (again without "") into it.
Copy the following into this file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^
http://www.google.de [R,L]
and save it. Now point your brwoser to
www.yourdomain.tld/testpath - if google opens everything is fine. If not you have to find out what to do to configure mod_rewrite right.
A german help-site:
http://www.modrewrite.de/foren/ftopic82.html There are many english forums too - check them for help.
If it went fine and google opened do the following:

http://www.exv2.de/ , upack and
upload them into the root of your eXV2-Installtion on your your webspace.
4th Go to control panel -> Extras and aktivate mod_rewrite in the bottom of the page.
