[Bug 766800] Re: Mahara should not overwrite web server configuration
... and also the register_globals message.
Not sure there's much we can do about the max upload file size, we'll
just have to add something to the wiki I guess.

Title:
Mahara should not overwrite web server configuration
Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
In Progress
Bug description:
We currently ship a .htaccess with Mahara. I would like to suggest
that we shouldn't be messing with people web server configuration. We
should provide guidance as to how to configure it right (on the wiki
already) and issue errors and warnings when we detect that certain
settings are wrong.
The current .htaccess has a few problems:
- it prevents people from installing Mahara in some cases (e.g. http://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=2728)
- it assumes that people will be running Apache
