If there is nothing in the RewriteLog, then you haven't configured it
correctly or your aren't putting your directives in the right place.
It is always easiest to do mod_rewrite stuff in the main server or
<VirtualHost> context, and not in <Directory> sections or .htaccess
files. This eliminates a lot of complications.
Also, as I already mentioned, something is screwy above. RewriteRule
^/$ matches only a request for "/" and nothing else. If you are using
it in an .htaccess file, it very likely matches nothing since the
leading slash gets stripped. Perhaps you want RewriteRule .* instead.
