Hi all ...
I have myself a server with 16 accounts on it.
On 14 accounts i can use .htaccess files with redirects in it without any problems.
I have added 2 accounts this week, and every time i try to use a .htaccess with a redirect, or i create a redirect in the directadmin controlpanel, i get an "500 Internal server error".
When i view my apache error log i see this entry:

Code:
[Mon May  7 16:34:20 2007] [error] [client 123.456.789.123] mod_rewrite: maximum number of internal redirects reached. Assuming configuration error. Use 'RewriteOptions MaxRedirects' to increase the limit if neccessary.

Whenever i try to add:
Code:
RewriteOptions MaxRedirects=20
or any other number in the .htaccess or a users httpd.conf file, no results.
I can't find any pointers to this in the servers httpd.conf file.

Out of my head, i think 3 other accounts are using redirects (for those who know this: joomla with a seo component). These accounts have no problems.

Does anyone have any ideas? I have been searching, comparing, testing for about 3 days but can't find it.
It think i'm overlooking the obvious :(

Any help is very welcome,
thanks in advance,
Johan.
