The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, you@example.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

I'm a mod-rewrite newbie struggling with an issue... I have a current URL: www.mysite.com/blah/page.php?specialcode=123456 I want to redirect all attempts to blah/ to www.mysite.com/new/index.php?page=new-page&specialcode=123456 and want to retain the special code included in the initial URL and write it into the new. The site has been re-written in a mini-MVC model and I need to convert traffic going to the old pages to the new model. I can do this in PHP, but want to completely get rid of blah/ and never look at it again. Any help would be appreciated.

It turns out that I just needed to set "AllowOverride all" in my VirtualHost configuration. The rule I wrote earlier did work one the module was properly in place. In addition, I'm also now using mod_rewrite to redirect the root URL to blogspot instead of the header tag. After some testing, I've discovered that the 301 redirect preserves the referrer information when passing the visitor to the blog, so I don't need the augmentedfourth.com index.htm to keep track of referring links anymore.
