Having had a look at the rewrite rules, it looks like there's something fishy with the 'REDIRECT_UI' variable, since it's read but never set. I guessed that 'IU' in the second paragraph of rewrite rules should maybe say 'REDIRECT_IU'. This changes the flavour of 500 error page I get, but makes effectively no difference.

Suggestion would be welcome. I'll try replicating the set-up on my own Apache, since at the moment I'm using the SRCF's and therefore don't have access to the error logs.

It turns out that these rewrite rules are not the problem, that the 'IU' variable name is indeed correct (though I'm not sure why), and that I can read the error logs (though can't change them to debug mode). I'll remove this unfortunately spurious discussion (with myself) shortly. --[[User:srk31|srk31]] 12:30, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

This used to work for me on Apache 2.0.x, but I'm having trouble getting it to work on Apache 2.2.x. At first I got as far as being bounced to Raven and back, but got a "CGI error 500: no / at start of path" message when accessing any of the protected pages following authentication.

Having had a look at the rewrite rules, it looks like there's something fishy with the 'REDIRECT_IU' variable, since it's read but never set. I guessed that 'IU' in the second paragraph of rewrite rules should maybe say 'REDIRECT_IU'. This changes the flavour of 500 error page I get, but makes effectively no difference.
