Can't get GUI to work

[Former user]

I know this is a really general issue but I need help and I don't even have a clue where to start looking for what is wrong. After setting everything up (Piler 0.1.23) I get

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Apache/2.2.22 (Debian) Server at 10.11.2.40 Port 80

I've changed the default for the piler configuration file that Piler ships for Apache but I changed some stuff that Apache needed me to include:

 #### IMPORTANT!!!
####
#### Fix the hostname
####

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName mailpiler-test.${MYDOMAIN}.com
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /var/www/mailpiler
    <Directory />
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
    </Directory>
    <Directory /var/www/mailpiler>
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all

       AllowOverride all 
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mailpiler-test.${MYDOMAIN}-error_log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mailpiler-test.${MYDOMAIN}-access_log common
    Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
</VirtualHost>

In which files should I be looking for miss configured files?

Than you!

Check the apache error log as the error message suggest. I think it might be an apache configuration issue.

Thanks for the quick answer!

Oops! I get this kind of error

[Fri Aug 16 09:55:48 2013] [alert] [client *.*.*.*] /var/www/mailpiler/.htaccess: Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

all I needed to do was to enable rewrite module

a2enmod rewrite
service apache2 restart

and now finally, after 10 days of ripping my hair off my head because I couldn't making work, it's working!!!!

Thank you very much for your help. Stay tune, now I need to configure everything else :P

PS: You can change to SOLVED, accidentally I created the issue anonymously.
