.htaccess Apache

I have been meaning to ask about this for some time now.

I get this every time I install or update my zenphoto. I have .htaccess file in my zenphoto folder

`
Server seems not to be Apache or Apache-compatible, skipping .htaccess test
`
My Cpanel states.
`
Apache version 1.3.41 (Unix)
`
`
EDIT: I can manually edit the .htaccess file to what I need it to be RewriteBase /album and it works fine.
`
Another Question related to this I guess.

I also get
`
PHP magic_quotes_gpc [is enabled]
`
I read that you could disable this in the .htaccess file, it does not matter where I place this line
`
php_value magic_quotes_gpc off
`
in the .htaccess file I always get Internal Server Error when I load the setup.

its kind of strange as it states if I dont put this line in that it didnt even try bothering looking for the .htaccess file as I posted above in this same post.

    What php version do you have? To deactivate magic_quote via htaccess for example is possible only with php 5.3 or newer, my ISP told me. They disabled it for me without any problem. I suggest to ask them.

    ahh ok. I got 5.2.5 must be why then. I will drop them an email.

    Thanks yet again.

    `.htaccess`: Your server is probably masking its identity so that zenphoto is not able to tell it is an apache server. But I guess we could go ahead and edit the file if it is present. You would still get a message, though, since we would not know that mod_rewrite would work and therefore would not automatically enable it.

    back to acrylian....

    Are you running PHP 5.3 alpha 1 on your server?

    as far as I see the newest version is 5.2.6

    No, I have 5.2.6, too. My host told me that that "will" be possible with 5.3..:-)
