Apache users:
I'm trying to learn how to use the Apache rewrite module to redirect
incoming hits for virtual *.html pages to Perl CGI scripts using the
information provided in the Apache 2.2 manual "URL Rewriting Guide"
chapter "From Static to Dynamic" section:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html#static-to-dynamic
For my first test, I am attempting to have hits for the page:
http://bluefish.holgerdanske.com/printenv.html
invoke the script at URL:
http://bluefish.holgerdanske.com/printenv.pl
which resides in file:
/home/dpchrist/bluefish/public_html/printenv.pl
When I invoke the script via its direct URL, everything works:
http://bluefish.holgerdanske.com/printenv.pl
But when I request the URL that is supposed to be rewritten:
http://bluefish.holgerdanske.com/printenv.html
I see:
404 Not Found
and the Apache error log says:
script not found or unable to stat: redirect:/printenv.pl
Also, I have attempted to enable the rewrite log and set the target
directory mode to 0777, but no log file is written (?).
Please see console session, below.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
David
