Hi, I can't for the life of me figure out where the problem lies, it is most likely in my httpd.conf file. What I want is for directory A to have mod rewrite active while directory B (most likely a sub-directory of A) has mod rewrite off. I have tried accomplishing this with .htaccess files or with directives in the .conf file, but with no luck; all I can do is turn it on or off for everything. I do this by simply including the rewrite rules and commands at the end of my httpd.conf file... When I try encasing the rewrite commands in a directive they do not seem to work. Below is the important stuff in the conf:
Code:
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
</Directory>

<Directory "/A">
     Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
     AllowOverride All
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
     IndexIgnore *.svn *.cvs *.jpg *.gif *.ico *.htaccess .*
</Directory>

<FilesMatch "^\.ht">    
     Order allow,deny    
     Deny from all    
     Satisfy All
</FilesMatch>

RewriteEngine on
# Some rules follow
# When I put RewriteEngine ... into a directive, such as <Directory A>
# nothing happens
The .htaccess files have either a copy of the RewriteEngine portion, cut from the httpd.conf or a "RewriteEngine off" command; either way they don't seem to do anything; I'm fairly certain they're being read as when I write a .htaccess file with the following in it...
Code:
foobar
I am confronted with the server error page.

Thanks for your help!
