[pmwiki-users] Rewrite Rule Question

[Tom]

Hi,

i do not really know how the rules work, but maybe someone can help me here.

I successfully got my urls down to: www.domain.com/Group/Name

Now i tried to eliminate one directory from being processed (cgi-bin):

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^cgi-bin/(.*) /cgi-bin/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^$           /pmwiki/pmwiki.php  [L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z].*) /pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=$1  [NC,QSA,L]

Comment:
- I know that the last rule is not original (i allow small letters for
links)

- The above is in .htaccess.

- I have no option to change httpd.conf or php.ini directly.

- The provider has installed Apache/1.3.26 (Linux/SuSE) PHP/4.4.2

Thoughts:
1. If i put the cgi-bin rule before the others, it would get processed
first.

2. [L] makes it stop, so that it wont be processed by the general rule

Does someone know where i am wrong, and how i can exclude one (or more)
directories from being processed here?


Thanks,
Tom
