RewriteRule that works on 1.3 server but not 2.0

[tibberous]

I have a script that uses RewriteRule to take a fake path and convert it to a script path with parameters.

 

The rule:

 

RewriteRule ^game/([0-9]*)/(.*)\.html$ game.php?gId=$1&fname=$2 [L,NC]

 

Expects a name like this:

 

http://www.mysite.com/game/21479/LOTR-Battle.html

 

It is supposed to use the first part as the gId parameter in the script, and the second part as the fname parameter. It looks right and runs on Apache 1.3, but on Apache 2.0 it doesn't send the parameters - it only converts it to the script name.

 

Does anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks
