Re: Redirect to other server if file/directory does not exists.

[Igor Cicimov <icicimov@xxxxxxxxx>]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://other-server/%1 [P,L]

Does not work. Local resources if esists are shown, but remote resources are 404 not found "/". Nor %{REQUEST_FILENAME} helps.

 

You have probably some other rule interfering before this one. Anyway, enable mod_rewrite logging and check in the logs what's going on.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewritelog

See RewriteLog and RewriteLogLevel.

Also no need of the 3rd RewriteCond, since you want to use the REQUEST_URI just write:

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://other-server%{REQUEST_URI} [P,L]
