mod_rewrite not working & "Redirection exceeded&quo

[alec]

Hi -

Frustrated by a PHP upgrade that borked my config, I deleted the entire /etc/apache, unmerged apache, and then remerged apache, mod_ssl, and php. However, now that I'm trying to re-setup all my stuff, I have two problems.

The first is that mod_rewrite doesn't appear to function. As I'm using a just-about stock apache.conf and commonapache.conf (with SSL, PHP, and webalizer ebuilded configs added, as well as the server e-mail admin changed), this puzzles me. Specifically, I'm trying to set up Gallery (http://gallery.sourceforge.net), and after trying to use it normally, I went back through the setup script tells me it's not working (it had been working before). Is there anything I can do to get those to start up? Besides having them in both the modules sections in the apache.conf?

Second, I'm getting a wierd error. I'm not sure if it's the script or the new PHP 4.2.0. The script is Netjuke (http://netjuke.sourceforge.net/). When I try and load it up, I get a popup error message that says "Redirection limit for this URL has been reached. Unable to load the requested page." Is this PHP or script-specific? Is there a line in my php.ini that I've missed to let me redirect more? I have a feeling this might be script-specific because my other PHP scripts (PHP-Nuke, Gallery, SysInfo, FTPStats) seem to function fine.

Thanks - any advice is appreciated.

Regarding your mod_rewrite problem, I'm not sure if mod_rewrite is included by default. Run: httpd -l, it will list all your compiled in modules, if mod_rewrite isn't there, then you have to do some ebuild hacking to add it.
