rewrite_module issue

I get this message for my site but the site works fine. Is this something I should worry about?

    • You need mod_rewrite. Look in your .htaccess file in the home directory of your site. You will see:

      <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

          RewriteEngine on

          RewriteRule ^m/(.*)$  modules/index.php?r=$1 [QSA,L]

          RewriteRule ^page/(.*)$  page.php?i=$1 [QSA,L]

          RewriteRule ^s/([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/([a-zA-Z0-9\.]+)  storage.php?o=$1&f=$2   [QSA,L]

      </IfModule>

      "RewriteEngine on" is mod_rewrite.

          rewrite_module is necessary to transform the long URL requests to the nice looking URL. For example, instead of https://una.io/page.php?i=discussions-home UNA has https://una.io/page/discussions-home. You may see the "FAIL" message about it due to hard detection of rewrite_module 's presence by PHP tools. So if the site works fine, then don't worry about it.
