OK, I've figured out what was wrong.  I installed drupal under ~/Sites.  That meant I needed to go into .htaccess, uncomment  the RewriteBase directive and change it to:

  RewriteBase /~roy/drupal

Now it all works fine.

I'm running OSX 10.5.4, with the stock apache and PHP.  I've installed drupal 6.3.  My status report says everything is OK except for the GD library not installed.  It reports:

Apache/2.2.8 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.7l DAV/2 PHP/5.2.6

I've followed all directions (at, for example, http://drupal.org/node/196646), but I still can't get clean URLs enabled.  When I look in the apache2 error_log, each time I go to admin/settings/clean-urls, it says:

[Fri Aug 08 21:05:16 2008] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /Library/WebServer/Documents/Users, referer: http://127.0.0.1/~roy2/drupal/?q=admin/settings/clean-urls

Is this normal, i.e. a byproduct of the check, or does it indicate that something is really wrong?
