[users@httpd] Rewrite help
Hi, I have the following rules setup:
-----------------
Alias /root-resources /Users/craiger/root-test
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/freshaire/images/(.*)$ /root-resources/images/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^/freshaire/community/images/(.*)$ /root-resources/
community-resources/images/$1 [L]
-----------------
How, if I fire up a browser and type:
Everything is fine if I navigate to:
http://localhost/root-resources/community-resources/images/someimage.jpg
But here I get a 404:
http://localhost/freshaire/community/images/someimage.jpg
You can probably see what I'm trying to accomplish here, not sure why
it's not working?
I'm running Apache 2.2 under Mac OSX 10.5.5.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Craig.

Oh wow, thanks so much! I had a similar setup before but I guess
because "root-resources" was always mounted as the DocumentRoot in the
past it worked!
Thanks again,
Craig.

The second argument is a filesystem path, not a URL (unless you're
redirecting or proxying).
As a convenience, mod_rewrite will prepend your document root during
the substitution your stuff isn't under the docroot so it doesn't save
you here. Have you tried using the full filesystem path in the 2nd
parameter of the RewriteRule?
RewriteRule ^/freshaire/images/(.*)$ /Users/craiger/root-test/$1 [L]
