Trouble with rewriterule

| Hi,
I'm using Apache 2.2 on Fedora Core 5 Linux. What I want is if a user
requests a URL with a particular directory name, "subdir1" to rewrite
the URL replacing "subdir1" with "subdir2". So I created
this .htaccess file
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule subdir1/(.*) subdir2/$1
and placed it in /webroot/. Unfortunately, when I request
http://mydomain.com/subdir1/test20/...Department=Main
the URL was not rewritten. What is wrong with my .htaccess file?
Thanks, - Dave

I don't use .htaccess so I'm not sure what your problem is. Have you
tried setting RewriteLogLevel to a non-zero value and examining the
rewrite log? It can be very useful in showing you how the rewrite
process works.
