aha!
my server admin just noticed that:
1. i'm using lower-case names, i.e. http://myserver.com/wiki/group/page
&
2. the rewriteRule was only looking for a capital first letter
so, changing my RewriteRule from:
RedirectMatch ^/([A-Z0-9]+)/?$ /$1/Index
to
RedirectMatch ^/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/?$ /$1/Index
... sort of works - it allows the mod_rewrite to finally execute
(thank goodness; i thought i was going crazy for awhile) - only
problem is that all pages were missing their css formatting. turns
out calls to /wiki/pub were probably getting rewritten too, so i
changed it further to:
RewriteRule ^([^/(pub)].*) pmwiki.php?n=$1 [QSA,L]
and now it seems to work fine!!!
in anycase, thanks for the quick help and moral support. i appreciate it
best,
adam

maybe make sure permissions are correct for .htaccess and that
allowoverride is properly specified for the directory in the
second apache virtual host config.
the permissions for /wiki/.htaccess and /pmwiki/.htacess are both
set to 644
how do i tell if allowoverride is specified?

Where are the .htaccess files stored? It might help to know the
*paths* that you installed pmwiki under rather than the domain-
names, but reading the .htaccess it seems it should be stored in
the root -- ie, above where pmwiki is stored. This would be tricky
if you have something like this (which I suspect you do):
\
|--->pmwiki
|--->wiki
in my case, it's
/pmwiki
&
/wiki
with '/' meaning '/home/username/public_html/'
each of those folders holds its own .htaccess file, which i believe
is what's specified on CleanUrls
note that the code in both .htaccess files is exactly the same,
except that /wiki/.htaccess contains RewriteBase /wiki instead of
RewriteBase /pmwiki.
also note that i can successfully access http://firstWiki.com via:
http://myserver.com/pmwiki/Main/Page
but i cannot successfully access:
http://myserver.com/wiki/Main/Page - it still wants the traditional
url
ideas?
thanks
adam
