Okay, i've got Apache *mostly* behaving now... However, there's still a
problem:
i had to rename /webroot/admin to /webroot/_admin so Apache wouldn't keep
trying to load the directory instead of handing the path to mod_rewrite to
get the application's route.
Now, however, i still have a problem with the /admin route. When i restart
Apache and go to /admin, it redirects to /webroot/admin and gives a missing
Controller error (it thinks WebrootController is missing). If i remove
/webroot from the URL and try /admin again, it routes correctly: i get my
login form.
What's happening on that first try? Can someone help? i know it sounds
confusing to describe, but i'd be grateful for ideas.
