Magento – Magento2 admin url redirect error

adminmagento2

I just install Magento2 on my local Mac OSX El Capitan. Apache 2.4.16, PHP Version 5.6.14.

The home page comes up but the admin url shows

Not Found
The requested URL /admin_6i2tvi/ was not found on this server.

When I add an index.php in I get the following

Not Found
The requested URL /admin_6i2tvi/admin/index/index/key/75c3473832b3e20ed68f01102834853b849d9f07a338681d59fdae3925ebd473/ was not found on this server.

I can see my .htaccess file and rewrite rules are there.

magento 2 admin url not working and loaded frontend is all messy

I installed magento2 (on xampp win7) with composer:

1.git clone https://github.com/magento/magento2/tree/master
2.cd magento2
3.git checkout master
4.composer install
5.php bin/magento sampledata:deploy
6.composer update

then i installed magento2 with web installer and got 404 error (page not found) on both front-end back-end pages. then i opened magento2\app\etc\di.xml and removed this line

<item name="view_preprocessed" xsi:type="object">Magento\Framework\App\View\Asset\MaterializationStrategy\Symlink</item>

also i removed env.php and did web installation once again after that front-end and back-end works fine :)
