Default route (controller/action) and links of css/js doesn't work cakephp - apache

Question

After extracting the cake 2.5.2 (on Linux) to the directory /var/www/html/teste when accessing the url http://localhost/teste it correctly loads the contents of the controller pages and action display as from routes.php:
Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display', 'home'));
But when trying to access the controller directly through url:
http://localhost/teste/pages/display I have the return of 404 Page not found.
Otherwise, the files css/js/img the webroot folder (not being included for the url generated) are not loaded.
Url generated that returns file not found:
http://localhost/teste/css/cake.generic.css
Url to access the file correctly:
http://localhost/teste/app/webroot/css/cake.generic.css
My solution to the files css/js/img was the following, I changed the form to call the file.
Standard form used:
echo $this->Html->css('cake.generic');
New form:
echo $this->Html->css('/app/webroot/css/cake.generic.css');
In short, I think the error might actually be in apache or something, but do not know exactly how can I validate that part.
My solution to the css / js / img so is it correct? Because I think that was to work as the example I downloaded the version of the cake properly.
If they need more information just tell me, thanks.

This is a symptom of an environment with mod_rewrite disabled.
If you use Ubuntu, just type:
sudo a2enmod rewrite
In your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf find the a block similar to this one:
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all denied
</Directory>
And replace the line
AllowOverride None
With
AllowOverride All
And finally, restart your apache with:
sudo service apache2 restart
