May be need to do:

** Make sure mode_rewrite is enabled

Ubuntu

sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo systemctl restart apache2

CentOS
The mod_rewrite module is enabled by default on CentOS 7. If you find it is not enabled on your server, you can enable it by editing 00-base.conf file located in /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/ directory.

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-base.conf 

Add the following line:

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

Save and close the file, then restart the httpd service:

sudo systemctl restart httpd 

** By default, Apache does not allow the use of ‘.htaccess’ file so you will need to edit the configuration of each website’s virtual host file by adding the following code:

Enable .Htaccess File Ubuntu

<Directory /var/www/html>
  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
  AllowOverride All
  Require all granted
</Directory

For instance, you can edit the default virtual hosts that ships with Apache using a nano editor by typing the command below:

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf

Then copy-paste the above text just before the ‘</VirtualHost>’ closing tag. Remember to save the file

Then, restart Apache for the changes to take effect:

sudo systemctl restart apache2

Enable .Htaccess File CentOS

Once the mod_rewrite module has been activated, you can set up your URL rewrites by creating an .htaccess file in your default document root directory. A .htaccess file allows us to modify our rewrite rules without accessing server configuration files. For this reason, .htaccess is critical to your web server. Before we begin, we need to allow Apache to read .htaccess files located under the /var/www/html directory.

You can do this by editing httpd.conf file:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Find the section <directory /var/www/html> and change AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All

 <Directory /var/www/html>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
 </Directory>

Save and exit.

Now restart Apache to put the change into effect:

sudo systemctl restart httpd
