[users@httpd] mod_rewrite and VirtualHost
Hi,
I have a problem configuring a server with mod_rewrite and several virtual
hosts.
I have several name based virtual hosts and I want to apply a rewrite rule
to all of them. Typically I want to disable the TRACE method on apache
2.0.52
I've tried to put the rewrite rule in the main server configuration but it
doesn't work and no rewrite logs are generated.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^TRACE
RewriteRule .* - [F]
RewriteLogLevel 9
RewriteLog "/var/log/httpd/rewrite_log"
</IfModule>
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
...
ServerName www.mydomain1.com
DocumentRoot ...
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
...
ServerName www.mydomain2.com
DocumentRoot ...
</VirtualHost>
When I put the rewrite section in the virtual hosts it works.
Is there a way
to have this rewrite rule applied to all my virtual hosts without
having to duplicate this section in each VirtualHost ?
Best regards,

Thanks for the inherit tip. I didn't see it in the rewrite doc.

The direct answer to your question is here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html#vhosts
But note that:
1. You are wasting your time disabling TRACE. It is not a security
vulnerability.
2. Modern versions of apache can control the use of TRACE with the
TraceEnable directive:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#traceenable
but you aren't using a modern version of apache.
