I already explained to you that you can't do this:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-users/200506.mbox/%3ce498c166050615070734caf364@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx%3e
Is there some part of that you didn't understand?

This is broken because it is trying to rewrite to the URL "[env...".
You need a dash after the patter to indicate that no rewriting will
occur. But as I've already told you, it won't work anyway.
