If you plan to host your Zend-based web-application on a 1&1 ( 1and1 / 1und1 ) server, you should consider the two following special features in the .htaccess-file:

• The first one is to define the RewriteBase for your project which is simply the root directory /. Otherwise you will get an HTTP error 500 (or something like that).
• And the second one is to disable the Multiviews option. Otherwise you will get the HTTP error 404 (or something like that).

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php 

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule !.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css)$ index.php
Options -MultiViews

PHP5 is not enabled by default. So that’s why I inserted the AddType and the AddHandler statements at the beginning.
