RE: [users@httpd] Re: Question about mod_rewrite
Hi Jean-Philippe,
Took me time to answer as well...
It becomes pretty weird if this is working on another machine.
If your browser queries for cookies this is not because of Apache but
related to your web application.
Do you use mod_usertrack?
Can you provide a full log? If it logs 20 attempts it might mean that
your pointed server (thenewwebsite) does a HTTP redirect and end up in
an endless loop.

Hi Olivier and httpd users !
Sorry for my delay of replying since my last post. Thanks
Olivier
for your answer ! In my configuration, I use RewriteEngine
to on when I try to setup this configuration
I tried to change the RewriteRule from (.+) to .+
and to add [P] (In this case I needed to set up proxy pass
but the result is still the same
for this configuration:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}
^http://incoming_web_site*\.html
RewriteRule (.+) http://thenewsite.com
RewriteLog
/usr/local/apache2052/logs/rewrite_vh9p.log
RewriteLogLevel 9
</IfModule>
the redirection seems to work, thenewsite.com is written in my
browser but
this brower tells me to activate cookies and in the access
logfile, the attempt
is repeated 20 times.
On another machine, with the same operating system (FC4) and the
same web server
(apache 2052), it works fine !
Cheers

Hi,
First, I supppose that's just a cut/paste mistake, but with
RewriteEngine set to Off, not much will happen.
Second, you might want to play with [P] flag to proxy the
request.
Anyway, your last rule is strange: you might try:
RewriteRule .*
http://www.theanotherpage.com <http://www.theanotherpage.com/>
[P]

Subject: [users@httpd] Question about mod_rewrite
hello
I need help and advices about using mod_rewrite
I have some pdf files on my web site
A foreign web site has stored these pdf file on a html
file on
this foreign web site
I would like to redirect its requests to another page
so I wrote:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine Off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}
^
http://www.theforeignwebsite.com/*\.html
<http://www.theforeignwebsite.com/*%5C.html>
RewriteRule (.+)
http://www.theanotherpage.com <http://www.theanotherpage.com/>
</IfModule>
But it doesn't work ! When the foreign web site tries to
access
, the redirection begins but doesn't finish.
in the access log of my web site, the access is repeated
20
times with a 302 number for the redirect
On IE, an error message is returned, on firefox, it
tells me to
check the cookies...
However I tested this configuration on the same apache
server (
2.0.52) on another machine and the redirection
works well and it succeded
I tried to specify the redirection code 302 or 301 in
the append
flag R but it is the same
Thanks for your help
cheers

this is probably not an apache config error, unless you are removing the
handler in certain directories, or unless you have some weird cgi based
php setup with cgiscripting only in the root.
Run php as a module,
dont save your php files with BOM, (although you can save in utf-8)
dont use short tags
<? echo "hello world"; ?>
instead use
<?php echo "hello" world"; ?> for maximum portability
globals should be off, so that when posting or using
url?firstname=hello&lastname=world
<?php
echo $firstname, ' ', $lastname;
?>
should not result in anything at all being printed to screen,
instead use the following notation
<?php
echo $_GET['firstname'], ' ', $_GET['lastname'];
?>
or
<?php
echo $_POST['firstname'], ' ', $_POST['lastname'];
?>
depending on the method your form employs which should be post for any
action which does more than retrieve data.

Re: [users@httpd] Problems passing form data outside the root
Posted by Mark Crosby <mc...@speedygeek.co.uk>.
Regarding this error, I'm still having the same problem.
I've visited the httpd room on IRC and posted in several forums.
Here is the page I'm having problems with:
http://www2.specialistagencyservices.co.uk/sections/needwork/test.php
It links to a script that shows the variables produced by this form:
<?
echo $firstname, $surname;
?>
I'm stuck - Any ideas?

[users@httpd] Problems passing form data outside the root
Posted by Mark Crosby <mc...@speedygeek.co.uk>.
Hi Folks!
I've hunted high and low for a solution for this, to no avail.
I have a standard http form on a page on my website which passes data to a
php script to add data to mysql. The problem is it doesn't get the data.
I'm having the same problems with scripts that need authentication such as
username/password, as the username/password doesn't get passed to the next
page.
Scripts do pass data if in the root directory of the website, but not in sub
directorys.
I'm using Apache with CentOS 4 (RHEL4). Theres nothing in the log files.
Any help would be much appreciated as I've hunted high and low for the
answer to this, and no one knows the answer.
