, 16:35, 27 January 2016→Short URLs (1/27/16): give credit to shorturls.redwerks.org for the assist in putting the config options in the right file
You can also check that mod_rewrite has been enabled by creating a phpinfo page and looking for mod_rewrite under the apache "Loaded Modules" section as described in [http://stackoverflow.com/a/10891317 this Stack Overflow answer].
As described on the Mediawiki manual page(and also by [http://shorturls.redwerks.org/ the web utility] that the manual page recommends), add these lines to the end of the VirtualHost block in the Apache configuration file that defines the wiki's DocumentRoot (I added them to /etc/apache2/sites-availabe/000-default.conf): (You may also want to make a backup of the original configuration file in case you want to revert)
