It appears to be serving up the correct page, but the full URL isn't showing. I tried adding the "UseCanonicalName off" and it didn't appear to affect anything. So when I type in www.mydomain.com/keyword the browser delivers www.mydomain.com/keyword/index.htm, however, the address bar in the browser only shows www.mydomain.com/keyword When I type in www.mydomain.com the browser delivers www.mydomain.com/index.htm and the address bar in the browser shows www.mydomain.com/index.htm (this is what I'm trying to accomplish with the keywords). I made sure the dir module is loaded as well. Here's what the access log shows when I try to pull up www.mydomain.com/keyword XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - - [19/Sep/2006:16:43:20 -0700] "GET /keyword HTTP/1.1" 200 6942 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4" Based on your comment about the trailing slash. I found documentation pointing to the need to have the following directive: DirectorySlash On I added this and it didn't appear to fix this issue either, although it sounded like it was supposed to address it. My DirectoryIndex is set as follows: <IfModule dir_module> DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm default.htm default.html </IfModule> ____________________________ Steven Niedermeyer Bellingham, WA "Joshua Slive" <joshua@xxxxxxxx> Sent by: To jslive@xxxxxxxxx users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx cc 09/19/2006 04:19 Subject PM Re: [users@httpd] Keywords and apache Please respond to users@xxxxxxxxxxx e.org On 9/19/06, sniedermeyer@xxxxxxx <sniedermeyer@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Can anyone point me to the best directive to use for keyword redirection. > What we're looking to do is allow visitors to our site to type in say > http://www.mydomain.com/keyword and have them be redirected to > http://www.mydomain.com/keyword/ and then let Apache pick up the default > file index.htm so that it results in the visitor be sent to > http://www.mydomain.com/keyword/index.htm.

Here's > what I tried: > > Redirect permanent /pw http://www.cob.org/pw/ This is called a trailing-slash redirect, and should happen automatically if you have "UseCanonicalName off". Then the index.html should be delivered automatically if DirectoryIndex is set correctly. If that isn't working, tell us exactly what is happening including the contents of the error and access logs for the request. For the second example, you need something like Redirect permanent /keyword http://www.mydomain.com/department/services/keyword/ Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
