title: Can't configure the rewrite log
body: <p>I'd like to enable the rewrite log to debug some rewrite rules that are giving me problems. So I added these lines at the end of my <strong>httpd.conf</strong> file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;
     RewriteLog "/logs/rewrite.log"
     RewriteLogLevel 4
  &lt;/IfModule&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Next thing I did was restart Apache. It causes an error however, and won't start. This is what I get in the XAMPP Control Panel:</p>
  
  <pre><code>13:14:56  [Apache]    Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
  13:14:56  [Apache]    This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies, 
  13:14:56  [Apache]    improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
  13:14:56  [Apache]    Check the "/xampp/apache/logs/error.log" file
  13:14:56  [Apache]    and the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I don't get any clue in <strong>error.log</strong> though. In fact no line is generated when this error occurs.</p>
  
  <p>I also tried changing the RewriteLog line to use an absolute path:</p>
  
  <pre><code>RewriteLog "c:\xampp\apache\logs\rewrite.log"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Could you please help me?</p>
