----- Original Message ---- > I'm embedding Gallery2 in PmWiki, and trying to get rewrite rules to work...
Ok, I think I understand what's going on (after installing a local copy of apache, etc to let me push up the debug levels...I didn't know httpd could crash so easily!): > RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /Main/Gallery/([^?]+)(\?.|\ .) > RewriteRule . /Main/Gallery?g2_path=%1 [QSA,L] So, after this, /Main/Gallery/test1/ gets mapped to /Main/Gallery?g2_path=test1/, then (as per the fine print in the 'last rule' section of the mod_rewrite documentation), "the RewriteRule generates an internal redirect (which frequently occurs when rewriting in a per-directory context), this will reinject the request and will cause processing to be repeated starting from the first RewriteRule." So, /Main/Gallery gets re-injected (hmm...) and matches /Main/Gallery/ again. And again. And Again. What's the proper way to avoid this? Is adding another RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/Main/Gallery the canonical way to go? Or is there some way to turn off the re-injection?
