i was trying to rewrite my post url with htaccess file when i put it into my project directory with following code in the htaccess file 500 internal error comes up, but when i left it(htaccess) blank without any code the page loads perfectly.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^post post.php
Error is:
Internal Server Error

what might be the issue, is there any permission need to be granted or any directives need to be on in config file or php.ini i am new in php development. plz help. Thank you
It must be
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^post$ post.php
try:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^post post.php [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
With this code the error should disappear but it's possible that your rule is not applying correctly, in this case we will fix
