Redirect /some/path http://otherhost.mydomain.com/some/path will work, were as Redirect http://mydomain.com/ http://otherhost.mydomain.com/ won't work. I am wrong about this? Thanks Jeff POLONKAI Gergely wrote:
Maybe you should use the Redirect or RedirectMatch directive instead of mod_rewrite. It's considered to be faster, I haven't measured yet however.Gergely POLONKAI Jeffrey Williams írta:my dns is set up with my domain name cnamed to my webserver e.g. mydomain.com IN CNAME www.myname.com my server is also running a wildcard cert for my domain.Now when people come to the site by following a link for www.mydomain.com, or type www.mydomain.com in the address bar, all is good with the world.However if they follow link for mydomain.com, or type mydomain.com, they get a certname does not match hostname error. (apparently wildcard certs don't work for domain names without a subdomain or hostname prepended)Anyway I have tried to use rewrite rules to fix this following are the two forms I tried:RewriteCond "%{HTTP_HOST}" "^mydomain\.com" [NC] RewriteRule "^/(.*)" "http://www.mydomain.com/$1" [R] and RewriteCond "%{HTTP_HOST}" "!^www\.mydomain\.com" [NC] RewriteCond "%{HTTP_HOST}" "!^$" RewriteRule "^/(.*)" "http://www.mydomain.com/$1" [R]neither seems to work, the address bar still shows mydomain.com without the www. and the cert warning still shows that the requested hostname as mydomain.com without the www.by the way I have about a dozen other rewrite rules all following these ones that seem to be working ok.any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong, or another way to solve this problem, would be appreciated.Thanks, Jeff ---------------------------------------------------------------------The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info.
