Re: mod_rewrite question on directory

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The sites I am trying to model are drupal-based.  We aren't dealing with plain static HTML or PHP sites.  We have the main server, which this test server is trying to mirror, and a secondary project server which exists to give project people limited root access to update their own code.  The secondary server also has drupal-based sites, but the redirections I describe in the issue work on the secondary server.  They were never implemented in any way on the main production server.  If I put wiki2.example.com, it should return wiki2.example.com/wiki2.    And so if I have site1, wiki2, and www on the main server, I can go to wiki2.example.com/www and get the main www site, when we want the main site to always turn up www.example.com/www.  

Is this not what mod_rewrite is meant to solve?  I fully admit I am not well-versed in apache, my prior work was mainly Windows Server and Exchange, but I am trying to learn this stuff based on what we had set up long before I came here.

You are also grossly abusing mod_rewrite for this. It isn't needed at all.

Use FallbackResource, Redirect, and separate vhosts, as Igor mentioned.
