[users@httpd] Re: Dynamic mass vhosts - can I exclude requests for the main page?

[Martin Lomas <ml...@rogers.com>]

Thanks for helping, Eimis. Could you clarify for me ... I think my setup is
already as you suggest: (all I've changed below is the example.com)

<VirtualHost *>
    ServerName www.example.com
    ServerAdmin martin@example.com
    VirtualDocumentRoot L:/www/%1.1/%1
    CustomLog logs/tsaccess.log vcommon env=!req_img
</VirtualHost>

So, do you mean I need to arrange this differently?

Thanks again,
Martin

Try defining it as first virtual host in your vhost list and then after
defining www.your.domain.com as virtual host add directives for mass virtual
hosting

This is not exactly what i ment. What i ment was:
====
<VirtualHost *>
    ServerName www.example.com
    ServerAdmin martin@example.com
    DocumentRoot L:/anywhere/htdocs/
    CustomLog logs/tsaccess.log vcommon env=!req_img
</VirtualHost>

# And now we add mass virtual hosting

<VirtualHost *>
  DoTheMassVirtualHostingStuff   
</VirtualHost>
====
Another solution to your mass virtual hosting could be dynamic vhosts using 
mod_rewrite. Check the documentation @ http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/
vhosts/mass.html
