I am using WO 5.3 on leopard with apache 2.2.9. The wo module is
coming before rewrite module in httpd.conf:
LoadModule WebObjects_module /System/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/
Apache2.2/mod_WebObjects.so
LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.so
Further investigation shows that each time I try to access the short
URL, I see the following error in the apache error_log:
[Thu Apr 16 10:12:15 2009] [error] [client ::1] File does not exist: /
Library/WebServer/Documents/cgi-bin
So just maybe the rewrite rule is working but the result may be
conflicting with mod_alias which has a scriptalias entry for the wo
cgi-bin???
Does that ring any bells with anyone?

if you're rewriting to wo instances, you need to make sure the
ordering of your modules is right, too ... in 5.3 (i don't know
about 5.4), the order of the modules was wrong -- you have to make
mod_webobjects come before mod_rewrite (iirc).

Hello list,
Well when Brian Moore said mod_rewrite was voodoo (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rewrite/
), I was skeptical, but now I believe him! I need some help for
what I think should be a pretty simple rewrite rule. I am currently
trying to get this to work initially on my development machine, and
I keep getting a 404 "Not Found" message from apache (version 2.2.9).
The rule is supposed to take convert URLs like this :
http://localhost/purl/KieranKelleher
and rewrite them like this (on my dev machine):
http://localhost/cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/wa/PurlAction/purl?p=KieranKelleher
I have added this to the end of my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf just
before the last 2 includes at the end of the file (other/*.conf and
WO apache.conf)
<IfModule rewrite_module>
# rewrite logging
RewriteLog "/tmp/rewrite.log"
# PURL feature
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/purl/(.*)$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/wa/
PurlAction/purl?p=$1
</IfModule>
I can confirm that when I restarted apache it creates the /tmp/
rewrite.log if it does not exist, however nothing gets written there.
I have studied the docs, the wiki docs and many examples. This
looks like it should work, but I cannot for the life of me figure
out why it does not work :-(
Any clues or hints would be appreciated.
Thanks, Kieran
