mod_rewrite

[Bill Jones <bi...@fccj.org>]

Hi all :]

On a GET of http://webmaster.fccj.org:81/manual/  (which does exist!)

Using mod_rewrite syntax of -

RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
RewriteLog logs/rewrite_log
RewriteLogLevel 3

RewriteCond /drv4/Apache/apache_1.3.3/htdocs/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond /drv4/Apache/apache_1.3.3/htdocs/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond /drv4/Apache/apache_1.3.3/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond /drv4/Apache/apache_1.3.3/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+) http://www.fccj.org$1 [L]


This returns a URL of http://www.fccj.org/manual/index.cgi  (Wrong!)

Near as I can tell, the rewriting engine is somehow combining what's within
my
htdocs DocRoot (the index.cgi) with my orginal request (the /manual/
directory)
and then, I suppose not finding it, rewrites the whole thing incorrectly;
this action is displayed in the follow rewrite_log output:

This is obviously not correct.  Anyone have any ideas?

Thx!

PS - No I won't stop beating this to death :]
