[users@httpd] RE: Wield problem with a reverse proxy server
Hi, all
I posted below email but got no answer. Now I found that my Apache 2.2.15 stopped working. It behaves the same way as Apache 2.2.14.
As a test, I switched the order on Apache 2.2.15 for these two virtual host statements:
<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:80>
....
</VitualHost>
....
<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:80>
ServerName www.survey.juicycouture.com
Redirect / http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:80>
ServerName www.survey.juicycouture.com
Redirect /tellus http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
</VirtualHost>
It seems the first virtual host working but the second virtual host for the site no longer working. Sounds to me that for the same site for redirect, Apache takes the first virtual host.
The requirement for the site is if the remote user uses either the URL http://www.survey.juicycouture.com or http://www.survey.juicycouture.com/tellus, Apache needs to redirect the traffic to the remotely hosted site http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus from my reverse proxy server.
I thought about rewrite engine but not that good about it. Can anyone help to figure out the best way? Thanks.

Subject: [users@httpd] Wield problem with a reverse proxy server
Hi, all
I have two reverse proxy servers, one is v2.2.15 (mpm=worker) and the other is v2.2.14 (prefork). They both run on Solaris 10.
Now I have a request to redirct traffic for an additional web site which is outsourced by another party.
What I have done on a reverse proxy (httpd-vhosts.conf) is to append:
<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:80>
ServerName www.survey.juicycouture.com
Redirect /tellus http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:80>
ServerName www.survey.juicycouture.com
Redirect / http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
</VirtualHost>
On the other reverse proxy server, I did the same:
<VirtualHost 20.20.20.20:80>
ServerName www.survey.juicycouture.com
Redirect /tellus http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 20.20.20.20:80>
ServerName www.survey.juicycouture.com
Redirect / http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
</VirtualHost>
On the Apache 2.2.15 (ie 10.10.10.10), it works as the way I want. Apache redirect the traffic to the site from URL that I typed in the browser (http://www.survey.juicycouture.com and http://www.survey.juicycouture.com/tellus).
On the Apache 2.2.14 (ie 20.20.20.20), it redirects the URL (http://www.survey.juicycouture.com/tellus) correctly. When I typed http://www.survey.juicycouture.com, it shows me the local document root directory list which has Apache's default index.html file. If I click index.html, it says "It Works!" from Apache and it did redirect the traffic.
I have put trailing "/" after "tellus",
Redirect / http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus/
But it does not work also.
What is wrong here? Thanks.

Hi, Justin
The request is when people type the URL www.survey.juicycouture.com with or without trailing tellus, the client request needs to be redirected to the site survery.juicycouture.com/tellus which is hosted by an outside ISP. I host the URL www.survey.juicycouture.com and www.survey.juicycouture.com/tellus through Apache reverse proxy server. I will test your suggestion. Thanks.

You have two VirtualHost containers with the exact same settings (same
IP:port and same ServerName). There's no way for Apache to distinguish
between the two (it can only do so based upon the IP:port or ServerName).
What are you expecting to happen when someone visits a URL that is NOT
http://www.survey.juicycouture.com or
http://www.survey.juicycouture.com/tellus? Where should it go? Depending
on the answer to this, why not just create one VirtualHost with a simple
RewriteRule to push all requests to the new URL?
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule . http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
Otherwise, just handle the two special cases
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/$ http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
RewriteRule ^/tellus$ http://survey.juicycouture.com/tellus
