aha!
my server admin just noticed that:
1. i'm using lower-case names, i.e. http://myserver.com/wiki/group/page
&
2. the rewriteRule was only looking for a capital first letter
so, changing my RewriteRule from:
RedirectMatch ^/([A-Z0-9]+)/?$ /$1/Index
to
RedirectMatch ^/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/?$ /$1/Index
... sort of works - it allows the mod_rewrite to finally execute
(thank goodness; i thought i was going crazy for awhile) - only
problem is that all pages were missing their css formatting. turns
out calls to /wiki/pub were probably getting rewritten too, so i
changed it further to:
RewriteRule ^([^/(pub)].*) pmwiki.php?n=$1 [QSA,L]
and now it seems to work fine!!!
in anycase, thanks for the quick help and moral support. i appreciate it
best,
adam
