I doubt it is a problem with the software. mod_rewrite has been put through the paces over the years and I'd be shocked if a bug were uncovered given your rule's relative simplicity. Before digesting your post in its entirety, I have a couple of questions first. 1.) Where have you defined the rewrite rule? In a .htaccess file? 2.) Have you defined a RewriteBase? If so, what is it? 3.) Have you reviewed Apache's access log at all? 4.) Have you increased RewriteLogLevel to, say, 4, to see exactly what the mod_rewrite engine is doing? -Ben > So I'll be very pleased to here from some qualified developer before I > spend 2 days to modify and retest all my application. > > Thanks in advance. > > On 07/02/13 11:17, Riccardo Cohen wrote: >> Sorry to insist but I'm really blocked and I really need help. >> Here is a small summary for those who don't want to read all : >> >> I want to make a rewrite from : >> >> http://www.perspectives-musicales.org/en/all-albums >> to >> http://www.perspectives-musicales.org/index.php/en/all-albums >> >> my rewrite rule is >> >> RewriteRule ^en/(.*) ./index.php/en/$1 >> >> This works when apache is runnnig with mod_php, but not when running >> mod_fcgid (php as cgi).
