[users@httpd] Problems with redirect statement

Folks

I'm having a problem getting a redirect to work properly.  This is RHEL5, Apache 2.2.  I need this to redirect to happen:

	http://retuning.foo -> http://retuning.foo/training.lms

This url works just fine:
	http://retuning.foo/training.lms

It's just the redirect is a problem.  I used this redirect statement:

	    Redirect Permanent /index.html http://retuning.foo/training/lms/

This gave the following error:

192.168.18.75 - - [08/Nov/2010:14:50:49 -0800] "GET /training/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lmstraining/lms HTTP/1.1" 404 520

I've tried other forms of the redirect, which resulted in the same error:

	Redirect Permanent /retuning.foo http://retuning.foo/training/lms/



Here is the section defining the virtual host from my http.conf:

# retuning.foo
<VirtualHost 192.168.25.184:80>
    Redirect Permanent /index.html http://retuning.foo/training/lms/
    ServerAdmin cathy.smith@pnl.gov
    ServerName retuningtraining.foo
    DocumentRoot /apps/retuning/training/www/Root/retuning
    ServerAlias retuning
    ErrorLog logs/retuning_error_log
    CustomLog logs/retuning_access_log common
    ScriptAlias /training/lms/cgi-bin/ "/apps/retuning/training/www/Root/lms/cgi-bin/"
    ScriptAlias /training/cgi-bin/ "/apps/retuning/training/www/Root/lms/cgi-bin/"
Alias       /training          "/apps/retuning/training/www/Root"
    <Directory "/apps/retuning/training/www/">
       AllowOverride All
       Options +FollowSymlinks -Indexes
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>



Can someone point out what I need to do?

Thanks for your help.


Regards,


Cathy

Try just redirecting the root URL --  RedirectMatch ^/$
http://retuning.foo/training/lms/
