title: How to debug Apache mod_rewrite
body: <p>I have two main problems with mod_rewrite:</p>
  <ol>
  <li><p>There is no meaningful error reported when I have an invalid rule</p>
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/g3Jte.jpg" alt="Enter image description here" /></p>
  </li>
  <li><p>To reliably test each modification, I have to erase Google Chrome's cache. This isn't rocket science, but I have to hit <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Delete</kbd>, click <kbd>OK</kbd>, and close the window, and reload.</p>
  </li>
  </ol>
  <p>I'd like to see if any of the gurus are willing to share their secrets to efficiently managing mod_rewrite code.</p>
