Rewrite problem

[felosi]

Continued from email correspondence.

I tried to add the rwrite log level to httpd.conf as well as log file but neither seems to be working.

I added this in httpd.conf between the VirtualHost directives

RewriteLogLevel 9
RewriteLog /etc/httpd/logs/rw.log


The rewrite rules in question again are:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?(.+)_(en-us|en|es|pt|de|fr|jp|it)?\.(html|htm|php$
RewriteRule ^(/)?.+ $1%1.%3?lang=%2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?(en-us|en|es|pt|de|fr|jp|it)?\.(html|htm|php)$
RewriteRule ^(/)?.+ $1?lang=%1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?(buy|order)_.+\.html$
RewriteRule ^(/)?buy_(.+)\.html $1?product=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^(/)?order_(.+)\.html $1?category=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm
DirectoryIndex index.php index.htm

It doesnt work, just gives off 404 errors.

Well I think I got log issue fixed, had log level for main log wrong

Here are some errors I seen in regular log

Well we have tried everything. That error still showing in logs. Me and the client have no clue what we can do. Any help would be much appreciated

Those rules does match an empty string "", the URL is an empty string when rewrite base was chopped off.
URL "/" will become "" since rewrite base is "/".
