try this for apache

1. Find the httpd.conf file (usually you will find it in a folder called conf, config or something along those lines)
2. Inside the httpd.conf file uncomment the line LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so (remove the pound '#' sign from in front of the line)
3. Also find the line ClearModuleList is uncommented then find and make sure that the line AddModule mod_rewrite.c is not commented out.

but remember to take backup before editing anything

Click switch program..

Change it to the desired.
if it's Apache, mod_rewrite is already enabled imo..
for lighty, you have to edit the lighttpd.conf and have to edit it as given by VBSEO.

If your using apache2 you can enable the mod_rewrite module by logging in through SSH and type the command.

sudo a2enmod rewrite

Restart apache2 so changes take effect

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

this will work on Debian .. hes using kloxo, which mostly means its CentOS.
