[gentoo-server] Plone, Apache and mod_rewrite

[Chris S]

Howdy,

I have been struggling all afternoon with trying to get Plone (2.0.5-r1) 
to work through Apache (2.0.54-r11) and am wondering if someone could 
slap me over the head and point out what I'm doing wrong?

I have a plone site (test) which works perfectly and can be accessed 
through http://serverip:8080/test
I have VirtualHostMonster under the root of my Zope instance
I have mod_rewrite enabled in http.conf:
    LoadModule rewrite_module                modules/mod_rewrite.so
Non-plone sites for just fine and if I browse to the awstats 
(http://www.test.com/awstats/awstats.pl) that re-write rule works just 
fine, so it appears to be a problem with the Plone rewrite rule.

This is my virtualhost entry with re-write rule:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName www.test.com
        ServerAlias test.com
        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteRule ^/awstats(.*) /awstats$1 
[PT,L,E=AWSTATS_FORCE_CONFIG:test.com]
        RewriteRule ^/(.*) 
http://localhost:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.test.com:80/test/VirtualHostRoot/$1 
[P]
        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/test.com-error
        CustomLog /var/log/apache2/test.com-access combined
</VirtualHost>

And finally, this is the error in the logs:

[Mon Jun 20 18:54:22 2005] [error] [client 192.168.45.98] attempt to 
make remote request from mod_rewrite without proxy enabled: 
proxy:http://localhost:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.test.com:80/test/VirtualHostRoot/

Which makes it sound like it wants mod_proxy, however I have that in 
http.conf too:
    LoadModule proxy_module                  modules/mod_proxy.so

Any ideas!?

Many thanks,
Chris
