I can't restart apache after successful using the install.sh script.

I have changed the $DRUSH dl drush_make --destination=$AEGIR_HOME/.drush to 6.x-2.0-beta2 in order to avoid the issue with php5-curl.

xxxxxxx:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Restarting web server: apache2Syntax error on line 23 of /var/aegir/config/vhost.d/yyyy.yyyyyyy.com:
Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
 failed!

Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

You have forgotten to enable the rewrite engine per the INSTALL.txt

 	Apache configuration
 	--------------------
 	
 	The rewrite module must be enabled and also Apache must be given a
 	directive to include Aegir's vhosts path, to read configurations from
 	there. In Debian-based systems you can put a file inside
 	``/etc/apache2/conf.d`` that will be parsed on startup or
 	alternatively you can place the directive in apache.conf/httpd.conf.
 	We prefer the former. In other systems there are similar ways to
 	accomplish this. Consult your OS's documentation if unsure.
 	
 	Shell commands as root::
 	
 	a2enmod rewrite
 	echo "Include /var/aegir/config/vhost.d/" > /etc/apache2/conf.d/aegir

Sorry...

Since there is no install.txt for 0.4alpha in the official documentation page I followed that guide http://git.aegirproject.org/?p=hostmaster.git;a=blob;f=INSTALL.txt;h=acb...

and it doesn't appear there. sorry.

There is an INSTALL.txt for 0.4alpha3 in the 0.4alpha3 version of Hostmaster. here

The version you linked to from git doesn't have mod_rewrite because the install.sh script does it for you.

I think that its will be good if we'll reference to that page from http://groups.drupal.org/aegir-hosting-system/documentation.

Thank you anyway!

There were links to INSTALL.txt but they were mistakenly links to install.sh . I have updated, thanks.
