hon@hon-desktop:~/web$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
Module rewrite already enabled
hon@hon-desktop:~/web$

In my case it was already enabled, still .htaccess was not working.

It was the default site, so i need to edit

sudo vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

Find

<Directory /var/www/html/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        allow from all
</Directory>

In that find

AllowOverride None

Replace with

AllowOverride All

Now restart apache

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

# phpize
-bash: phpize: command not found
#

This is because php-devel package is not installed on the server.

Before installing, you need to find out whether php is installed from source or apt-get

On CentOS, you can find it by

yum list |grep php

On Debian/Ubuntu, dpkg -l list all packages installed.
