Hi Jim

I had some trouble configuring my local.ini file.

Setting

[httpd]
port = 80

doesn't work because I get a "Connection refused" answer when connecting
with curl.

The only way I got it working was:

[httpd]
port = 5984
bind_address = 0.0.0.0

then redirecting form 5984 to 80: "iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp
--dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 5984"

Is this the reason form my trouble with rewrites?

The vhost I set was: arteigenschaften.ch:5984 =
/artendb/_design/artendb/_rewrite

Alex
