mod_rewrite problems

[carpeliam]

Ok, I've stuffed the following code towards the bottom of my httpd.conf file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteLog "D:/rewrite.log"
RewriteLogLevel 9
RewriteRule cms/(.*) cocoon/cms/$1 [PT]

The following is showing up in the logs:

(2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /cms/
(3) applying pattern 'cms/(.*)' to uri '/cms/'
(2) rewrite /cms/ -> cocoon/cms/
(2) forcing 'cocoon/cms/' to get passed through to next API URI-to-filename handler

That's the good news--it seems that mod_rewrite is doing what it's supposed to do. However, If I try going to anything that contains 'cms/' in the address, I'm getting a "HTTP 400 - Bad Request" return.

http://localhost/cms/

http://localhost/cocoon/cms/

http://localhost/qwerty/cms/

those all return HTTP 400. What to do? Liam Morley

Hi,

Hmmm. Does it behave the same if you leave the [PT] (Passthrough) flag off ? Or alternatively if you reference a specific file, e.g.

http://localhost/cms/test.html

?

Yes on both accounts. Thank you for your time.. I'm still getting a 400 response. <p>Liam Morley<br><A HREF="mailto:"></A><br>&quot;light the deep, and bring silence to the world.<br>light the world, and bring depth to the silence.&quot;
