page not show after issuing zf command

Question

hello guys,

just simple question, recently i have setup a web server to build project using zend framework, after setup and see those welcome page saying that you are creating websites powered by zendframework, then i try issuing command,

$ zf create controller alert

i get the message that saying that i've successfully create controller, view and so on, but when i try to navigate to the page by URL, ex:

www.mywebapp.com/alert

the page is broken, i've check those tuts but none of them showing this case. can some one define which step i've skip?

update: (25/5/2010)

so i've found that there is no problem, is just that i've not configured properly my route to my web apps, so i have to type URL like this:

www.mywebapp.com/index.php/alert

how am I going to change this? i mean i want to explode "index.php" out of URL.

Make sure mod_rewrite is enabled. You can call phpinfo(); to see a listing of your servers configuration. Then in that page search for mod_rewrite. If its not check with your server admin. Also make sure you have a .htaccess file in your public folder containing at the minimum:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
