Figured it out, and just thought I would post back with what made everything work, so if someone later on is in the same position, they will have this fix.
The stuff I mentioned at the start of this thread is all good, but : 1. I removed the: RewriteBase /cake/ as it wasn't necessary. 2. Also, since I am using the bakesale project from CI forge, in app/webroot/.htaccess there are two lines which were causing the internal server errors. They were the lines: php_flag zlib.output_compression On php_value zlib.output_compression_level 1 I commented them out like this: #php_flag zlib.output_compression On #php_value zlib.output_compression_level 1 3. I restarted the apache web server. After these three changes, the internal server error went away, mod_rewrite is working on windows, and cake, together with BakeSale came up beautifully. (still a few problems I'm having with bakesale, but I believe those are other issues). I should note that even though cake pretty urls seem to work, things in general just seem to work better with mod_rewrite, so I think it is worth the effort to get mod_rewrite working. The benefits are not just cosmetic (ie. nicer looking urls), I think stuff generally works better with mod_rewrite in cake and there seems to be less problems. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
