Rewrite failure - clash with 303?

[RobBroekhuis]

I'm trying to put a rewrite rule in place - for a specific file for now, to be broadened more generally when the specific one works. I have in plants/.htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /plants
RewriteRule ^AcantMolli$ AcantMolli.php

A request for /plants/AcantMolli fails with a 404. If I change the rule to

RewriteRule ^AcantMollis$ AcantMolli.php

a request for /plants/AcantMollis produces the expected result. Is the rewrite engine clashing with other Apache mechanisms for disambiguating mis-spelled requests?

Hi

The directives you posted are working for me.

Check the webserver's and mod_rewrite's log files to see what happens there. ( Lower the [tt]RewriteLogLevel[/tt] if needed. )
