Running Drupal 6 on 1and1 shared hosting with clean urls
There are a couple things that you need to do to get Drupal running if you are using 1and1 for your hosting provider with clean urls.
- Download and copy the Drupal installation.
- Create a php.ini file with these two lines and copy it to the root of your site (…/mysite/)
register_globals = off
memory_limit = 16M - Edit the .htaccess file and uncomment the line:
RewriteBase / - Add this line to .htaccess somewhere to enable php5
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
That should do it. Let me know if it doesn’t work for you in the comments.

This didn’t work for me. I’m using the 1and1 home package. I have another installation on the same server. All I did was uncomment the
Rewrite Base /
line.
I even copied the .htaccess that was working into the directory where it didn’t work…still didn’t work!

I enable the rewrite rule above it, to rewrite into /drupal instead of just /
It worked like a charm!

Can’t seem to get it working, even when following that. Am installing 6.9 on a “Professionals” OneandOne package.
It just says:
Testing clean URLs…
Your system configuration does not currently support this feature. The handbook page on Clean URLs has additional troubleshooting information.
Thanks.

The clean url fix above did not work for Drupal 6.1 on 1&1.
