port redirect question

Hi;

Well, I *thought* I knew what I was doing...

I want to cause all visits to

http://foo.bar.com/<stuff>

to be sent to

http://foo.bar.com:8888/<stuff>

I've tried various combinations of virtual hosts and/or rewrite
directives, but the results have been less than perfect.  Does someone
have a simple recipe t oaccomplish this transformation consistently?

Thanks,

hugh

if you're still stuck with mod_rewrite and want immediate results,


simply use a meta redirect tag with 0 within the head of your main index.html

Depends what you mean with 'to be sent to'. In any case you will need
mod_rewrite and two virtual hosts, one for foo.bar.com:80 and one for
foo.bar.com:8888.  Assuming you don't want any other virtual hosts on
the machine you could do:

  Listen 80
  Listen 8888

  <VirtualHost _default_:80>
    ServerName foo.bar.com
    ____ here goes your rewrite rule ____
  </VirtualHost>

  <VirtualHost _default_:8888>
    ServerName foo.bar.com
  </VirtualHost>

Now, if 'to be sent to' means the browser should be redirected to the
8888 server you'd put in your rewrite rule:

    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://foo.bar.com:8888$1 [R]

If you want the request to be proxied internally (ie. the browser
shouldn't be aware of the 8888 server) you'd do:

    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://foo.bar.com:8888$1 [P]
    ProxyPassReverse / http://foo.bar.com:8888

Check the documentation on Rewrite and VirtualHosts.

Good Luck, Hans
