Alright, finally got the rewrite log to work and here is what it spits out when I attempt the redirect described earlier:
[07/Jul/2010:15:05:07 --0700] [localhost/sid#6b5148][rid#75a040/initial] (3) [perdir C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/] strip per-dir prefix: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/from.cgi -> from.cgi [07/Jul/2010:15:05:07 --0700] [localhost/sid#6b5148][rid#75a040/initial] (3) [perdir C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/] applying pattern '^from.cgi' to uri 'from.cgi' [07/Jul/2010:15:05:07 --0700] [localhost/sid#6b5148][rid#75a040/initial] (2) [perdir C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/] rewrite 'from.cgi' -> 'to.cgi' [07/Jul/2010:15:05:07 --0700] [localhost/sid#6b5148][rid#75a040/initial] (3) [perdir C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/] add per-dir prefix: to.cgi -> C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/to.cgi [07/Jul/2010:15:05:07 --0700] [localhost/sid#6b5148][rid#75a040/initial] (1) [perdir C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/] internal redirect with C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/scripts/to.cgi [INTERNAL REDIRECT] Looks to me like it is trying to do the right thing. why it is giving a 404 is very puzzling to me. Hopefully these logs shed some light.
