note 79574 rejected from function.header by betz

Note Submitter: luka at kladaric dot net ---- experienced weird issue on Apache/2.0.54 with mod_rewrite on running PHP 5.2.2 <?php // doing this: header("HTTP/1.1 200 OK", true); header("Status: 200 OK", true); // and then header("Location: /",true); // a bit later ?> causes 500 Internal server error error_log says "[Mon Dec 03 02:39:58 2007] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace." problem gone if first two lines commented out or replaced with <?php header(' ', true, 200);?> if anyone can tell me exactly why this causes a meltdown in apache, please email me. thanks!
