mod_rewrite - Virtual?

Hi guys/gals,

I'm trying to figure out why this code in my httpd.conf file isn't working :/

Code:
<VirtualHost 207.97.217.140:80> 

DocumentRoot "/home/user/web/sites/www.domain.com" 
    ServerName www.domain.com 

    RewriteEngine on 
    RewriteRule ^/.*L([0-9]+)/?$ /page.cgi?g=Detailed/$1.html [L] 

    DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.htm index.shtml index.php4 index.php3 index.phtml index.cgi 

# logs     
   TransferLog /home/user/web/admin/logs/traffic/log.www.domain.com.txt 
   CustomLog /home/user/web/admin/logs/traffic/log.www.domain.com.txt "combined"     
   ErrorLog /home/user/web/admin/logs/errors/error.www.domain.com.error 
   Options ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks 

</VirtualHost>

The error being reported isn't any more help either :/

I've rebooted the machine several times... but I just can't get it to work.

Is there something really stupid that I've missed? Pirate

TIA

Andy, is the following an accurate example of the format you're using?

Code:
sdfsdfs_L_16/

if so, your rewrite rule isn't going to match that because it's not expecting an underscore after "L"
