Apache URL rewriting - matching directory

I have a .htaccess file with the following rule:

RewriteRule ^api\/([A-Za-z0-9\-]+)\/?([0-9=a-zA-Z%]+)?\/?$   api.php?service=$1&param=$2 [QSA,L]

For some reason, it's working on my host, but not on my local LAMP-installation. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Apache version: Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu)

Error message: 404 Not Found ("The requested URL /api/word/search/ was not found on this server.")

Edit: There is another rewrite rule that is working, so the mod_rewrite module is activated:

RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)\.page$    index.php?template=$1 [QSA,L]

Apache site configuration is (locally):

DocumentRoot /var/www/Development-Env
<Directory />
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/Development-Env/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        allow from all
</Directory>

Edit #2 I am trying to match http://localhost/api/service/method/.

According to this Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews in your question, I guess the problem is MultiViews is enabled.

You may try adding this line on top of the rewrite rule-set:

Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews

it is possible that apache mod rewrite is not enabled , or htaccess not alowed. and dont forget before all of that 

RewriteEngine On
