No succes :( My system: laptop with winXP, apacha 1.3 or 2, php4, mysql. I uploaden my entire httpd.conf to http://www.theartshop.nl/httpd.conf.txt At this point im clueless.

I discovered another post addressing this problem. The problem is windows style pathing in the RewriteRule. See this post: http://ez.no/products/ez_publish_cms/info/ez_publish_2_2/forum/install_configuration/install_on_window_rewrite_problem_
