[previously sent to plone-users so apologies for any duplicates] Hello: I'm using Plone 2.0.4 from the OSX installer, running behind the default OSX Apache (1.3.29), on MacOSX 10.3.5. I'm trying to use inside-out virtual hosting as shown at the end of http://zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/ VirtualHosting.stx and at http://www.cheimes.de/opensource/docs/zope-apache2/zope-apache2-4 with a rewrite rule like ^/foo/(.*) http://localhost:8400/VirtualHostBase/http/www.example.org:80/ VirtualHostRoot/_vh_foo/$1 [L,P] The redirection works fine, but the _vh_ insertion of foo into generated URLs doesn't happen. For example, the generated news and members links are like http://www.example.org/news http://www.example.org/members rather than the expected http://www.example.org/foo/news http://www.example.org/foo/members I have a separate rewrite rule to redirect non-foo URLs to a default plone instance: ^/(.*) http://localhost:8200/VirtualHostBase/http/www.example.org:80/ VirtualHostRoot/$1 [L,P] I think this is being invoked for URLs generated for the foo (port 8400) instance, which seems to be confirmed by the second and subsequent entries in the rewrite log (with first entry also shown below) 203.122.227.35 - - [20/Oct/2004:07:35:19 +1000] [www.example.org/sid#828228][rid#836e38/initial] (1) go-ahead with proxy request proxy:http://localhost:8400/VirtualHostBase/http/www.example.org:80/ VirtualHostRoot/_vh_foo/ [OK] 203.122.227.35 - - [20/Oct/2004:07:35:19 +1000] [www.example.org/sid#828228][rid#836e38/initial] (1) go-ahead with proxy request proxy:http://localhost:8200/VirtualHostBase/http/www.example.org:80/ VirtualHostRoot/ploneNS4.css [OK] ... I have a VirtualHostMonster in each of the plone instances, but I haven't messed with the auto-generated SiteRoot objects or access_rule scripts. Shutting down the site on port 8200 or commenting out the rewrite rule for port 8200 results in the foo site on port 8400 displaying just the bare content (no graphics or CSS). If I access the port 8400 site directly (via an ssh tunnel), generated URLs are correct. I think this means _vh_foo is not inserting foo into generated URLs as I expect. What am I missing? Should I mess with the SiteRoot objects and access_rule scripts? thanks Ian
