I tried to define the DocumentRoot using a UNC path on windows (such as "\\remoteserver\sharename", instead of "Y:") and apache seems not to be able to interpret it as a network shared drive. Any idea how to get this to work?

It is far from clear what you are trying to achieve and what effects you are seeing. The error message may or may not be connected to the problem, but since the problem is under-defined, it's not possible to say if it's relevant. Other tips: - put "RewriteEngine on" before any other rewrite directives - keep it simple to start with; do you really need to invoke symlinks right away? Try to get it "working" with static files before folding in additional complications. - ditto for "Deny from env=anonymous_spider" Rgds, Owen Boyle Disclaimer: Any disclaimer attached to this message may be ignored. > > > > I know I am missing something but not sure what. > > > > ii apache 1.3.33-6sarge2 versatile, high-performance > HTTP server > > ii apache-common 1.3.33-6sarge2 support files for all > Apache webservers > > ii apache2-utils 2.0.54-5sarge1 utility programs for webservers > > > > Alias /twiki/ "/var/www/twiki/" > > BrowserMatchNoCase ^$ anonymous_spider > > <Directory "/var/www/twiki/"> > > Options +FollowSymLinks > > DirectoryIndex index.html > > RewriteRule /index\.html /bin/view [R] > > RewriteEngine on > > Order Allow,Deny > > Allow from all > > Deny from env=anonymous_spider > > </Directory> > > > > [Wed Oct 4 15:15:39 2006] [error] [client 192.168.2.102] > Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which > implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: > /var/www/twiki/pub/TWiki/PatternSkin/background_input.gif > > This message is for the named person's use only.
