I believe there are issues with CakePHP/mod_rewrite and mod_userdir (the module which handles the /~username url's). On my Mac OS X machine I had to disable mod_userdir. But you probably don't have that option if it isn't your server.
Hope that gives you more info, - Matthias keymaster wrote:
Thanks for all your replies. I did the following. I installed the identical files on another site, this time with a regular domain name. eg. www.mydomain.com (as opposed to the site in my post above which was accessed through the ip) I got the same error - but, I looked at the server error logs and found the problem: in app/webroot there is a .htaccess file which contained the lines (from the BakeSale project on cakeforge): php_flag zlib.output_compression On php_value zlib.output_compression_level 1 These lines were producing the error: "[alert] [client 99.99.999.999] /home/myaccount/public_html/app/webroot/.htaccess: Invalid command 'php_flag', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration" So, I commented them out as follows: #php_flag zlib.output_compression On #php_value zlib.output_compression_level 1 That did it, cake came up smiling, using nothing but mod_rewrite. I should note, that although I have no problems anymore on a site with a regular domain name, there are still problems on the other site accessed through IP. I suspect there is still an issue there with cake... Thanks for your help.
