I have put a .htaccess file in httpdocs/test/
, with two rules:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^test/reviews/([0-9]+)\-[A-Za-z1-9\-]$ /test/reviews.php?id=$1
DirectoryIndex reviews.php
The DirectoryIndex rule works, so I know the file is parsed. However, the address /test/reviews/123-Bose
results in a 404 error. On my phpinfo file, under apache2hander, there is mod_rewrite
next to Loaded Modules, so Rewrite has been loaded. Why doesn't /test/reviews/123-Bose
get rewritten?
EDIT: I have to leave the .htaccess in the /test/ directory.
Thanks!

Put the .htaccess
file in the root folder, not in the subfolder, if you are going to specify the entire base path including test/
anyway. Also, add a base statement since you don't specify a leading slash:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
...your rules...
