[users@httpd] apache 2.2 mod rewrite/htaccess on windows 7

[Sam Sherlock <sa...@gmail.com>]

I have set up php, mysql and apache 2.2

but I can't seem to get mod_rewrites to work

things that worked fine on xp and also linux just don't work on windows 7
wordpress and cakephp rewrites

but have also tried a simple test as follows

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule bob.html alice.html

I have a single html file named alice.html abd an index.html file which
links to
bob.html and alice.html

only the alice.html link works the other is error 404

I get this in access log for bob
127.0.0.1 - - [11/Nov/2010:16:33:41 +0000] "GET /mtest/bob.html HTTP/1.1"
404 212

and in error log

[Thu Nov 11 16:29:42 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist:
C:/www/htdocs/mtest/bob.html, referer: http://ss33/mtest/

would greatly appreciate any ideas to resolve this

thx  - S

Thanks Joost

I had it working before reading you reply minor change to the rule and
removing some stuff from conf - Options All seemed to help

cakephp & wordpress are also now rewriting

I will be reading up on rewritelog and rewriteloglevel
its useful to have friendly tools to assist when things go wierd

it would still match since it's not anchored, but it would normally
result in a 400.

RewriteLog and RewriteLogLevel are your friends.

If this is in the main config, then this will never get matched, since the main 
config will use full pathnames (i.e. /bob.html if the URL is 
http://localhost/bob.html).
