This is making sense Ben - Thanks for the pointers

This is one of many 'bitweaver' based sites some of which have been running on a number of Apache 2.2 machines for many years - without a problem. It's having moved them to a new 2.4 based machine that is causing the problem!

So this is a different machine??? If you haven't set the wiki file permissions properly on the new server the access will not work no matter which version of apache you are using. Again, is there any wiki apache config file for the wiki directory?
To start with compare the permissions of the wiki directory on the old and the new server and make sure they are identical.

But this all configured in the vhost.d files, so
RewriteBase: only valid in per-directory config files

I've avoided using .htaccess so far as I thought THAT was frond on? Am I going to have to switch everything back to directory based, having spent a lot of time stripping it on 2.2 :(
