Greetings apache users - I hope I selected the right list for this question: I have a wierd mod_rewrite problem, that I need new eyes on. What I try to do accomplish: I am implementing “Userdirs” using mod_rewrite, with users in LDAP The filepath is fetched from LDAP using a perl map program (with ram-caching, for fast response, the programs does 20k responses in 0.2s, so it’s not a bottleneck) Mod_rewrite config: RewriteEngine on RewriteLog /var/log/rewriter-log RewriteLogLevel 9 #userdir via mod-rewrite via ldap via perl RewriteMap lowercase int:tolower # rewrite script with ldap lookup RewriteMap uid-til-user prg:/home/scripts/users.homepage.pl # rewrite on host match RewriteCond ${lowercase:%{HTTP_HOST}|NONE} ^users\.example\.tld$ #get userid and path and rewrite RewriteRule ^/~(.*?)/(.*?)$ /${uid-til-user:$1|fejl}$2 I have a simple static HTML page, with 20 images <pre> 1<img src="image1.jpg"> 2<img src="image2.jpg"> …etc… 19<img src="image19.jpg"> 20<img src="image20.jpg"> </pre> Fetching this page gives this rewritelog (| cut -d"/" -f4- for shorter line) sid#80161a730][rid#8017ca0a0/initial] (2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /~ccc2404/example/image11.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017ca0a0/initial] (3) applying pattern '^/~(.*?)/(.*?)$' to uri '/~ccc2404/example/image11.jpg' sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) rewrite '/~ccc2404/example/image9.jpg' -> '/2404/example/image9.jpg' sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) local path result: /2404/example/image9.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) prefixed with document_root to /home/www/data/2404/example/image9.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017ce0a0/initial] (2) rewrite '/~ccc2404/example/image10.jpg' -> '//mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc2404/example/image10.jpg' sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (1) go-ahead with /home/www/data/2404/example/image9.jpg [OK] image9 is loaded fine ! then comes TWO inits with SAME rid (8017c80a0) the map program returns //mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc2404/ //mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc2404/ But somehow the two answers get “mixed” '/~ccc2404/example/image13.jpg' -> '/ml7101042/eb/ccc2404/example/image13.jpg' '/~ccc2404/example/image18.jpg' -> '//ai//////4/w/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc2404/example/image18.jpg' Full log here: sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /~ccc2404/example/image13.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /~ccc2404/example/image18.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (3) applying pattern '^/~(.*?)/(.*?)$' to uri '/~ccc2404/example/image18.jpg' sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (3) applying pattern '^/~(.*?)/(.*?)$' to uri '/~ccc2404/example/image13.jpg' sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) rewrite '/~ccc2404/example/image13.jpg' -> '/ml7101042/eb/ccc2404/example/image13.jpg' sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) local path result: /ml7101042/eb/ccc2404/example/image13.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) prefixed with document_root to /home/www/data/ml7101042/eb/ccc2404/example/image13.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (1) go-ahead with /home/www/data/ml7101042/eb/ccc2404/example/image13.jpg [OK] sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) rewrite '/~ccc2404/example/image18.jpg' -> '//ai//////4/w/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc2404/example/image18.jpg' sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) local path result: //ai//////4/w/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442//web/ccc2404/example/image18.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (2) prefixed with document_root to /home/www/data/ai/4/w/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442/web/ccc2404/example/image18.jpg sid#80161a730][rid#8017c80a0/initial] (1) go-ahead with /home/www/data/ai/4/w/mail/7/1/0/1/0/442/web/ccc2404/example/image18.jpg [OK] Why does this happen ? How is “rid” calculated ? And How do I fix the problem ? Any hints is appreciated – I am kind of stuck here. /Søren Schrøder -- Søren Schrøder.
