[TYPO3-english] RealURL and CoolURI Problems. 404 "File Does Not Exist"

[Trent Stromkins]

Jan,

Thanks for the test help. It was the mod_rewrite configuration that was 
the problem. I did some digging and fixed the error. I feel like a 
idiot asking for help, when it is something so stupid.  I had 2 rules 
that were conflicting each other. One in the main httpd.conf, and the 
other in the virtualhost one. :)
