mod_rewrite causing internal server error

Post by Luke »

Does anybody know why a rewrite rule like this would cause an "Internal Server Error"?

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule .* index.php
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so is uncommented in http.conf. Anything else I could be doing wrong?

Likely, it's an infinite (rewrite) result. If that's the case, you need a rewrite condition such that you do the rewrite if it's not index.php.

Two things...

Either your path to the so file is wrong...

or

the so file is the wrong one for the version of Apache you are running.
