OctoberCMS : Have to go to index.php

Question

On my OctoberCMS website, I always have to navigate through index.php. For example:

• Go to a page : mywebsite.com/index.php/mypage instead of mywebsite.com/mypage
• Admin : mywebsite.com/index.php/backend instead of mywebsite.com/backend

All the links are cutently to mywebsite.com/linktopage and when I go to mywebsite.com/index.php, all the links switched to mywebsite.com/index.php/linktopage/. Thats weird.

Here is my .htaccess;

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !docs/.*
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !themes/.*
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L,NC]

    ##
    ## Standard routes
    ##
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

</IfModule>

Thanks.

Make sure mod_rewrite is on using a2enmod rewrite and then service apache2 restart.
