Hi, I am using a backend server to serve an application which is running on apache and another apache which is front end to users coming from internet. So the back end server is hidden from outside. I want if some one types in URL http://site1.mydomain.com/application then they be redirected to internal server which is running /application on port 8080 this application server always does not have /application in URL If some one types http://site1.mydomain.com and not http://site1.mydomain.com/application then in both cases they are seeing the same page. Which should not happen. Now the problem is I have written a ReWriteRule as following <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> ReWriteEngine on ReWriteRule /application/(.*) - [L] RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://site1.mydomain.com:8080/$1 [P,L] </IfModule> /application gives a login screen after some one logs in /application is not present on the URL of client browser only http://site1.mydomain.com is present. What is the problem in above ReWriteRule. -- Tapas --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
