and here 000-default file in "etc/apache2/site-enabled/ : "

but when want enable clean url test fail. have idea ?

thanks .

you should use 'rewritebase /' instead of 'rewritebase /myshop/client/101b' because virtual host pointing folder contains drupal site.

please check version of apache you're using. newest versions of apache web-server require changes in host's definition. should use 'require granted' instead of 'allow all'. see example works me:

<virtualhost *:80> servername drupal7 serveralias drupal7 www.drupal7 documentroot /home/vlad/www/public_html/drupal7 <directory /home/vlad/www/public_html/drupal7/>   options followsymlinks   allowoverride   require granted </directory> </virtualhost>
