URL Rewriting not working on Zend Server Community Edition 5.3.9

Question

To @All, Nobody is here to answer this question?

I have tried my below problem with following SO question Zend Server Community Edition .htaccess issue but could not get success. That's why posting my details question here as follows:

I am having a very serious issue with Zend Community Server Edition (ZendServer-CE-php-5.3.9-5.6.0-SP1-Windows_x86).

Everything is working fine but not URL Rewrtiting.

I have following things set up in my httpd.conf file of Apache folder on Windows 7

I have enabled mod_rewrite module in httpd.conf file like

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

Below is my Document Root for my all projects

DocumentRoot "D:/projects/"

and its related <Directory> settings like

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    #Order deny,allow
    #Deny from all
</Directory>

<Directory D:/projects>
    Options Indexes +FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    #Order deny,allow
    #Deny from all
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

I have .htaccess setup in httpd.conf is as below

<FilesMatch "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
    Satisfy All
</FilesMatch>

Now, I have following path of my test folder for URL Rewriting.

D:/projects/url


D:/projects/url/.htaccess

and content of .htaccess file is as below

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^news news.php
RewriteRule ^news/id/(.*)/article/(.*) news.php?id=$1&article=$2

D:/projects/url/news.php

In news.php file (when I specify it on addressbar like localhost:/url/news.php it does not works and giving below error message

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /url/news on this server.

code in news.php file is as below

$path = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
echo $path."<br/>";

//below is for http://localhost:<PORT>/url/news/id/62/article/abc
if(isset($_GET['id']) && isset($_GET['article']))
{
    echo $_GET['id']."<br/>";
    echo $_GET['article'];
}

Any guidance will be appreciated.
