Below you will find my current vHost entry that I am using for a site that I currently have under development. This vHost entry works fine when I have it on my local machine, but when I push my code to my staging server that is running this same vHost record I receive a 500 Internal Server error.

The machine I’m running this vHost on is running Apache 2.2.9 (Debian).

<VirtualHost 206.217.196.61:80>
    SuExecUserGroup 13labs 13labs
    ServerAdmin aellis@1three.com
    ServerName admin.13labs.net

    DirectoryIndex index.php
    DocumentRoot /var/www/13labs.net/html/admin/
    ErrorLog /var/www/13labs.net/logs/error.log

    # Hide .svn Directories
    <DirectoryMatch "\.svn">
            Order deny,allow

    # Rewrite Logic

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
    RewriteRule ^/(.+)$ /index.php/$1 [PT,QSA,L]

Thanks for any help that you can provide.

Best regards,

    After many trial and errors I have found that the working RewriteRule needs to be the following:

    RewriteRule ^.*$ /index.php$1 [PT,QSA,L]

    Then in PHP I need to be using $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] instead of $_SERVER[‘PATH_INFO’] to make sure my PHP script see the passed in URI.
