[users@httpd] Rewrites in .htaccess work with http but not https?

Hallo Everybody! :-)

I have a really strange problem for which I can't find a solution.

I have a .htaccess file with a simple rewrite rule in it which right now just 
rewrites from one non existent file to an existing file (see below).  These 
rules work fine when I call up the pages through a http call, but when I do 
it using https, I get an "Internal Server Error".  The error log for the 
https contains entries with "RewriteEngine not allowed here".  If I remove 
the RewriteEngine On line, then I get "RewriteRule not allowed here".  In the 
apache server config, I have an entry for the directory with "AllowOverride 
All" in both http and https.  I'm rellay at a loss as to what's happening.  
Does anyone have any ideas?

regards
Markus

in httpd.conf:
<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>
	DocumentRoot /usr/local/htdocs
	<Directory />
		Options FollowSymLinks
		AllowOverride None
	</Directory>
        <Directory "/usr/local/htdocs/rewritetest">
                AllowOverride All
        </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443>
	DocumentRoot /usr/local/htdocs
	<Directory />
		Options FollowSymLinks
		AllowOverride None
	</Directory>
        <Directory "/usr/local/htdocs/rewritetest">
                AllowOverride All
        </Directory>
* SSL certificate stuff left out *
</VirtualHost>


Error log entry
/usr/local/htdocs/rewritetest/.htaccess: RewriteEngine not allowed here
/usr/local/htdocs/rewritetest/.htaccess: RewriteRule not allowed here


.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^test-me.php$ /usr/local/htdocs/rewritetest/testme.php [L,R]


testme.php:
<?php
	echo "Hello";
?>

Hi,

Thanks for the answer.  I looked through and there is no AllowOverride 
directive that would override the all for that directory.  

Any other ideas anybody?

Markus

Check for every instance of the AllowOverride directive in all your
apache config files and make sure that you don't have one overriding
your "all".
