Synopsis: Bad Request with mod_rewrite and gdbm

State-Changed-From-To: open-feedback
State-Changed-By: rse
State-Changed-When: Mon Aug  3 01:13:37 PDT 1998
State-Changed-Why:
A "Bad request" response usually indicates that you
rewrite to an illegal URL. You should first use the
RewriteLog directive with "RewriteLogLevel 9" to
find the reason, i.e. to what your URLs are rewritten to.
And when the GDBM stuff is the problem you should
remember: The DBM library Apache is linked with has
to be the same which is used for creating your db.users
file. Don't link Apache with GDBM and create the
db.users with a tool which uses the vendor DBM lib.
Instead I recomend you to just use Solaris DBM, it
works ok.
