Apache Mod help

[xangelusx]

Hello,

I'm using the Apache rewrite_mod to create the effect of mulitple user directories that are actually served from a single page.

basically, i want requests to "http://my.server.com/users/whatever/" to be sent to "http://my.server.com/users/index.php?req=whatever".

So far I'm only getting a lot of Internal Server Errors. Anyone played around with this mod? The documentation is pretty cumbersome.

Thanks,
CDB

First, do you have the rewrite engone turned on?

Disclaimer: we use it on a lot of sites, but I'm rarely the one configuring it. Thought I'd jump in, since there were no replies.

J,

Yar, it was turned on. However, we soon realized that the mod_rewrite was causing our server to crash and some how nuked the kernal. As you can expect, we are trying to avoid using it now.
