Server error VQMOD Opencart permissions: You don't have permission to access /shop/vqmod/install on this server - vqmod

I have a website running with a content management system running in the root of my website. I have installed the latest version of Opencart in a sub-directory called "shop" - so www.domain.com/shop/
Everything works fine and I can use Opencart as expected.
I need to install VQmod so have uploaded the files to the root of the shop folder, I have set the correct permissions trying 755 and 777 but with no luck.
Every time I go to www.domain.com/shop/vqmod/install I get a 403 error.
Same with www.domain.com/shop/vqmod/
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /shop/vqmod/install on this server.
Apache Server at domain.com Port 80
My .hta file is pretty much standard apart from taking out the index.php? out of the urls and a rewrite rule to say change the home link.
RewriteBase /shop/
RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ index.php?route=feed/google_sitemap [L]
RewriteRule ^googlebase.xml$ index.php?route=feed/google_base [L]
RewriteRule ^download/(.*) /index.php?route=error/not_found [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.(ico|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|js|css)
RewriteRule ^([^?]*) index.php?_route_=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^route=common/home$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !^POST$
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}? [R=301,L]
I am running on an apache server mentioned in error and on plesk control panel. I am stuck!
Also I have a .hta file in my very root where the cms files are how do I ensure that does not conflict the with opencart website.

found it at last....
.htaccess in of vqmod is set to Deny from all. change it to allow and it should work fine!

Did you also change the file permissions for your www.domain.com/shop/index.php and www.domain.com/shop/admin/index.php files during vqmod installation?
This is vital as changes are made to these files during the auto-installation process.

Laravel Symbolic Link in Shared hosting problem

I am using shared hosting.
I have installed my laravel application and i am using unisharp Laravel File Manager.
With the manager, I uploaded file "happy.jpg". it produced url "http://unpluggedworldofmine.com/storage/photos/1/happy.jpg" but i cannot access to the file.
instead, when i use
"http://unpluggedworldofmine.com//storage/app/public/photos/1/happy.jpg", i can see that i has been uploaded properly.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?$ /public/ [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/public/
RewriteRule ^(.*) /public/$1 [L]

How do we make the cs cart api work after installation?

I installed cs cart on new server and also enabled the API user access. But the api is giving back 404 not found error. Not sure what is needed in here.
Can anyone please help!!
please try yoursite.com/api.php?_d=products (e.g. in browser)
if it works, make sure that .htaccess root file (for apache servers) has lines:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^api/(.*)$ [or]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .*/api/(.*)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .*api/(.*)$ api.php?_d=$1 [L,QSA]
it might mean issue with mod_rewrite which is not configured or configured incorrectly on the server
p.s. if the server is on nginx, analogue configuration is needed
Enable API for an administrator user

mod_rewrite redirects to .html in error

I've just setup an AMP server on OSX 10.9 and have a bizzare problem which is not present on my live hosting server or my old WAMP server.
I want to redirect any URL that doesn't directly map to a file on the server to index.php. I'm using the following .htaccess code
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# prevent loop
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index\.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
when I try http://example.com/example there is no problem, but when I introduce another slash, for example, http://example.com/example/
I get the a 404 error The requested URL /example.html/ was not found on this server.
Server version: Apache/2.2.26 (Unix)
Looks like your problem is related to enabling of MultiViews here. Turn it off by using this line on top of your .htaccess:
Options -MultiViews
Option MultiViews is used by Apache's content negotiation module that runs before mod_rewrite and and makes Apache server match extensions of files. So /file can be in URL but it will serve /file.php.

Magento Nginx: Never rewrite for existing files, directories and links

I install my Magento CE 1.8.1 on Nginx server.
My nginx conf file is like this: Configuring nginx for Magento
I created a subfolder in Magento root folder, then put in it some php files.
I tried to execute those files by visiting urls (http://example.com/magento/subfolder/myfile.php) but it displays Magento 404 page. That means it was forced to rewrite by conf.
I looked into Magento default .htaccess file and found these lines:
############################################
## never rewrite for existing files, directories and links
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
How to convert this into nginx conf and make existing files executable?

Apache mod-rewrite in httpd.conf not working

I need to make a change to my Apache web server to redirect requests for the home page from iPhone browsers to a different page. I've edited the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file and added the following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} .*iPhone.*
RewriteRule ^/$ /iphone/index.html [L]
After making the change, I restarted httpd, but the redirect doesn't work.
Am I missing something? Do the edits need to be made to a specific location in the httpd.conf file?
Other info: Server is vps hosted by Lunarpages running CentOS 5.5 and Apache 2.2.3.
For me, I use like below
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} .*iPhone.*
RewriteRule ^[\./]$ <MyDomain>/iphone/index.html [L]
