Re: Apache 2.4 : Rewrite to keep the original URL

Fabio,

Right now I am not in the position to test this.  Your .conf attempt looks a LOT like what I tried.

I was told:

Rewriterules and https.  Actually, looking at what you have doesn't
really tell me why it gets applied to everything and not just the
webmail.  However, I'd say that your roundcubemail.conf is much
overworked.  We use something like that on openssl.org, but it
generally looks like this:

    <VirtualHost *:80>
            ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
            ServerName ${HOSTNAME}
            ServerAlias ${HOSTALIASES}
    
            Redirect permanent / https://${HOSTNAME}/
    </VirtualHost>

Since you already know that the host is correct and that's the port 80
virtualhost, there's no point testing that with those RewriteCond you
have.  Also, Redirect is faster and preferable to RewriteRule for this
kind of stuff, see https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/avoid.html

Also, specifically for virtualhost config files, they should be
located in sites-available/ rather than conf.d/, see 'man a2ensite'.
conf.d/ is older style configuration of general stuff...  or well,
that's at least true for Debian, I'm not sure this is specific for
Debian distributions and their derivates or if it's a native Apache
thing.  You'll have to check the manuals to confirm.

I need to check out sites-available directory for Centos7...

But see what this does, and let me know!  I am at the IEEE 802 conference this week, and testing is challenging right now.....

Hi,

I'm trying to setup an environment with a frontend interface which login and redirects to my application. 

The scenario is: The user access with webmail.domain.com and the login page redirects to the application, running on the same host, but on port 81.

How could I keep the original URL? I mean, the browser should keep the "webmail.domain.com" as the address.

My Apache configuration: 

<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/login_domain"
DirectoryIndex index.html *.php
ServerName webmail.domain.com
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/crt/apache.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/crt/apache.key
        SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/crt/ca.crt
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/login_domain"
DirectoryIndex index.html *.php
ServerName  webmail.domain.com
</VirtualHost>

Kind regards.
