mod_rewrite in .htaccess does not work

3 New Member

Here we go...

What I have been trying to do is to forward all http requests containing /cms/ to http://cms.mydomain.com/

example1: http://host1.mydomain.com/cms/init.php would be parsed from http://cms.mydomain.com/init.php (via ajax request)

example2: <script src="http://host1.mydomain. com/cms/example.js" in <html><head> would be parsed from http://cms.mydomain.com/example.js

physically there are no cms directories in http://cms.mydomain.com/ nor in http://host1.mydomain.com/ nor in http://host2.mydomain.com/

/var/www/host1.mydomain. com/web/.htaccess

and

/var/www/host2.mydomain. com/web/.htaccess

look like this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/cms/(.*)$ http://cms.mydomain.co m/$1 [P]
</IfModule>

According to phpinfo(), I have mod_proxy and mod_rewrite enabled.

From error log I get "[Thu Sep 13 16:32:55 2007] [error] [client 194.204.*.*] File does not exist: /var/www/web15/web/cms, referer: http://host1.mydomain. com/"

What it means is that there is no url rewriting being done. I checked if .htaccess is being parsed by adding invalid characters into it and I got 500 internal error, which means .htaccess is being parsed.

I use ISPConfig as a frontend for my virtuals. There is a texbox called "Apache Directives". For host1.mydomain. com I have filled it with:

<Directory /var/www/web15/web/>
Options +Includes +FollowSymlinks -Indexes
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
Deny from all
</Files>
</Directory>

No, I don't want to keep the contents of my .htaccess files in these small texboxes.

cms.mydomain.co m has directives for white-listing my proxies:

<Directory proxy:*>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from host1.mydomain. com, host2.mydomain. com
</Directory>

Here are some relevant sections from /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfi g.conf

Seems like mod_proxy is being used by mod_rewrite.
mod_rewrite can be used in htaccess files while mod_proxy cannot. I moved apache directives into apache main configuration files and now the requests are being redirected.

New problem has risen though. I get the following error:

"[Thu Sep
13 23:10:56 2007] [error] [client 194.204.*.*] client denied by
server configuration: proxy:http://www.mydomain.co m/example.js,
referer: http://host1.mydomain. com/"

Mod_rewrite question - does php expose the original url?

by: Jon Maz | last post by:

Hi All, Forgive a newbie-ish question here, but I've not been long in the Apache / PHP world. I'm just learning about mod_rewrite, and a question occurred to me. Once Apache has rewritten a url, the php page can (obviously) see the *rewritten* url and access it via $_GET. But does php have any access to the *original* url? I'm told that Apache *does* expose both urls (original and rewritten), it's just a question of whether the php...
