| I have an Apache 2.2.3 Server on a Windows Server 2003 machine and am running a copy of MediaWiki. I set it to use mod_rewrite, but now when I go to a special page with a colon in it (i.e. Special:Page) the Apache server gives me 403 error, and does not allow me to view the page. Is there any way I can either fix this bug in Apache or change the URL for MediaWiki special pages? |

You do not tell which rewrite rule(s) you are using and what you want to achieve. There are no known issues like this in 2.2.3. When you are sure it is a bug in Apache, please file a bug report at http://httpd.apache.org/ .

I am not sure it is a bug in Apache that's just a guess. I made that assumption when I saw this page: http://www.apacheweek.com/issues/03-09-26
But since it was written in 2003 I assumed there was a bug fix.
Anyway I'm using the following rewrite rule:
| Code: |
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?title=$1 [L,QSA]
|
As for what I want to acheive, I want to be able to view a page with a colon in a path, without getting a 403 error.
If anyone has anymore infomation I would appreciate their help  |
