The answer is yes, of course.
I got it to work. I had a few problems. I think the main one was I was
just doing a "graceful" and I don't think Apache was re-reading
the .conf file to pick up my changes? When I started doing a graceful-
stop followed by a start I started seeing changes.
Also:
1. I needed a forward slash on the pattern in RewriteRule; i.e. ^/
modules.php instead of ^modules.php.
2. I needed to prevent the query string from being appended to the new
URL. This could cause recursion in some cases, or other strange things
(400 bad request). A trailing ? did the trick.
This eventually worked for me:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} sid=([0-9]+)
RewriteRule ^/modules\.php /news/story/%1/? [R=301,L]
Nothing to do with mod_wsgi, sorry. :)
