You can consult me if you need someone to install it. Otherwise try the following steps first:

1. Open `public/.htaccess` and remove this line `RewriteBase /~xkhachat/devel/public`

```auto
# Redirect to front controller
RewriteEngine On
# RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L]

```

1. Create a second .htaccess file in your project root directory and copy/paste this content:

```auto
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ public/ [L]
RewriteRule (.*) public/$1 [L]

```

This `.htaccess’ file in your project root directory redirects traffic internally to the public directory.
