[users@httpd] Troubles with mod_rewrite and htaccess

["Alexander W. Janssen" <al...@gmail.com>]

Hi!

I want to do a RewriteRule in a .htaccess, but it only works, if I set
"AllowOverride All" in the <DIrectory>. But the manual says, an
"AllowOverride FileInfo" should be enough.

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule

Yet, if I only set "AllowOverride FileInfo", the Apache gives me a HTTP 500.

Any ideas? Did I do something wrong? Did I find a bug? Is the manual wrong?

Cheers, Alex.

Maybe it's a different htaccess file, what does the error log say?
