With release 0.6rc1 I can not get the mod_rewrite mode working for URL rewriting.
This Apache module is installed and working on my box since I use it in my current site but when I activate it in Serendipity, most of the links are broken.
The server does not find existing files.
When I use the Apache ErrorHandling mode, then it works.

Am I the only one with this problem ?
Well, this basically should work. Please past your .htaccess file, maybe some of the rewrite rules are wrong or not with the right paths set up. Is your website up so that I can look at it?
I have another question regarding mod_rewrite: is there a way to change the URL layout ?
I currently have a blog with friendly URL. One if the reasons that made me choose this kind of URL is that they do not change even if the application logic change. That's why I want to keep my URL layout.
I can rewrite the requested URLs by editing the htaccess.rewrite.tpl file but I must also modify the URLs that will be displayed by Serendipity.
Well, it seems as if the .htaccess file is correctly evaluated but can't find the ErrorDocument file. It says it's missing the file "/home/dyingcul/www/outils/serendipity/index.php" - is this really existing?
Maybe you could post your .htaccess file and tell me about your path structure on your webserver.
You can change the way of URL rewriting by tweaking the serendipity_config.inc.php files - there are a couple of constants which define the behaviour. And you can try to use RewriteRules to get it into the new format.
However there are no sophisticated methods of changing the rewrite rules, it's pretty much "dirt work".
