Hello again,
I am still having problems with this and am not sure how to tackle this
from a most effective point of view.
I have setup a wild card DNS entry so that *.mydomain.tld points to an
apache web server.
This works as expected.
On my apache conf file I have a rule that:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName folder.domain.tld
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:9080/folder/$1 [P]
RequestHeader set X-Base-Path folder
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/folder-error_log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/folder-access_log common
</VirtualHost>
This also works fine without problem.
BUT, I want to have just one rule and use some special apache magic to
change this on the fly ;)
I tried the examples in the
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/misc/rewriteguide.html and specifically
the example of the Virtual User Host but I cannot get it to work as I am
still getting the apache main page, rather than the page in the directory.
Perhaps my conf file is wrong, here it is:
[1] <VirtualHost *:80>
[2] ServerName domain.tld
[3] RewriteEngine on
[4] RewriteCond %{*HTTP_HOST*} *[^.]+*\.domain\.tld$
[5] RewriteRule ^(.+) %{HTTP_HOST}$1 [C]
[6] RewriteRule *([^.]+)*\.domain\.tld(.*) http://localhost:9080/*$1*$2 [P]
[7] RequestHeader set X-Base-Path %{*HTTP_HOST*}
[8] ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/all-error_log
[9] CustomLog /var/log/apache2/all-access_log common
[0] </VirtualHost>
I don't understand line [2], as the server gets the request http://folder.domain.tld as this points to an A record IP address Apache will return the default page and it stops, how do I inject the %{*HTTP_HOST*} value or is there some magic I am missing and don't see?
Assuming that there is, Apache then switches the RewriteEngine on [3] and takes everything before domain.tld - what is the meaning of [^.]+ ? then the [C] means continue to the next RewriteRule which in my case needs to rewrite to an internal server and Proxy this i.e. [P], but this does not work for me either ;'(
Line [7] I need to set the X-Base-Path to the folder name.
I would like to avoid using vhost.map or any scripting but I am open to suggestions if there is no other way ;)
By the way, I don't have the www.'folder'.domain.tld in my URL - maybe this is the problem, but don't see why?
Cheers
Norman
