.htaccess / apache problem in URI routing?

[eluser]Flemming[/eluser]
this solution worked for me too. I've just moved a site from Apache 1.3.7 to 2.2.11

all my urls were pointing back to the index (every page was displaying as the home page) - adding a '?' after index.php got it working.

Alternatively, changing [L] to [R] at the end of the rewrite rule had the same fixing effect but of course the uri displayed as the mod rewritten version, e.g. www.mysite.com/index.php/controller

still wondering why... :long:
