Hi, Thanks for your reply and advice. Much appreciated.
I have this in my conf: RewriteLog "logs/rewrite.log" I think i was just being lazy when i typed the sentence: RewriteLog "logs/rewrite.log" However, i still do not get things working, and still get the same error. I'm not so sure the error (of permissions and logs) is actually 100% the way to solve this (i could well be wrong on that), but i cannot see why it would be complaining. This is my conf: RewriteLog "logs/rewrite.log" RewriteLogLevel 0 RewriteEngine Off The logs is has /Library/Apache/ prepended to it.
