[pmwiki-users] Clean URLs: All work except for the pmwiki group

Hi,

I have clean URLs working fine, except when linking to anything in the 
pmwiki group. Instead, the home wiki start page is displayed. All other 
pages in all other groups work as expected.

In addition, this only happens on the *home wiki* within my *test setup* 
- the "live" version works okay, and both are running under the same 
Apache server. For all other wikis in the farm, references to the pmwiki 
group work fine. (In this case, the physical files for the pmwiki group 
are shared.)

When I remove the .htaccess [1], and edit $ScriptUrl, then the pmwiki 
group pages are again accessible.

There's more. The "live" pmwiki is located at:

    <apache root>/pmwiki

while the test setup is at:

    <apache root>/~marc/pmwiki

(where this is defined via an Apache UserDir directive in the usual 
way). When I copy the entire test wiki to the "live" location - and make 
the appropriate .htaccess and pmwiki config changes - then the pmwiki 
group pages are accessible with clean URLs.

Digging a little deeper, I tried changing /pmwiki/pmwiki.php to 
/pmwiki/index.php and adjusting the .htaccess. When trying to access the 
pmwiki group, this resulted in the Apache error: 

Negotiation: discovered file(s) matching request: <path>/pmwiki/PmWiki 
(None could be negotiated)

I can't see what I'm missing. Can anyone help, please?
