[users@httpd] URL redirection

Hello,

Could you please advise if this can be done in apache?

http://server1/OpenObject?doc=ERW
to be redirected to:

http://server2:9000/OpenObject?doc=ERW

I mean everything that starts with /OpenObject to be
redirected to server2:9000 with the same trailing
string /OpenObject?doc=ERW or /OpenObject?doc=ERW1
etc.

I am using apache 2.2.4

thanks

ups...

> RewriteEngine On
> RewriteRule ^/(OpenObject.*) http://server2:9000/$1 [P,L]
> ProxyPassReverse / http://server1/

of course the ProxyPassReverse directive should look like

ProxyPassReverse / http://server2:9000/

In your httpd configuration of "server1" put the following (have
mod_rewrite, mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http loaded). I assume you would
like to have it transparent for the user. Therefore I suggest proxying
the requests like so:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(OpenObject.*) http://server2:9000/$1 [P,L]
ProxyPassReverse / http://server1/

or just by permanent (cachable) redirect (no mod_proxy needed):

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(OpenObject.*) http://server2:9000/$1 [R=301,L]
