come on Eric, the error tells you the problem. And JC almost gave you the answer.

"[error] [client xx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [:"blue"]Options[/] [:"red"]FollowSymLinks[/] or [:"red"]SymLinksIfOwnerMatch[/] is [:"red"]off[/] which implies that [:"red"]RewriteRule[/] [:"blue"]directive[/] is [:"red"]forbidden[/]:"

You're using a rewrite rule, probably in your httpd.conf, that is invalid because you have not enabled the Option FollowSymLink or DymLinksIfOwnerMatch.

Now, the answer? J.C. was almost right. except he is applying the options AFTER the rewrite. Needs to be before in hierarchy.

If you're using a rewrite in an .htaccess apply the options above it, if your using it in an httpd.conf file (this is where I suspect that it is located) add in the option before the rewrite rule, that way the condition is TRUE before the rewrite is applied.


Picture perfect penmanship here.
