I still do not have a solution to get my VHM working. My programmer is on vacation and I don't know how he's got things configured. I copied, pasted and edited an entry in our httpd.conf file thus:
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://127.0.0.1:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.centurionsecurityvi.com:80/ce... [L,P]
This redirect looks absolutely fine. I duplicated this in my own setup. Initially, visiting it produced an error (as I didn't have a folder "centurionsecurityvi.com"), but when I added that folder, everything worked fine, and browsing to http://www.centurionsecurityvi.com (which I mapped to localhost in /etc/hosts on my machine) rendered the contents of the folder correctly.
rebooted our FreeBSD machine, and then followed the instructions in our VHM by entering these fields: centurionsecurityvi.com /centurionsecurityvi.com (Yes, that's the dir.) VHM tells me this dir can't be found. Wazzup?! I'm looking at the darn thing! Don't tell me it can't be found! Waaaaaah! Please help. beno
Ah, ok. I see that if you edit the mappings tab on the VHM, you can generate such an error. However, with a redirect like the one you quote above, there is no need to touch the VHM mappings - the redirect is all that is needed. I can't reproduce your bug though - when I have a folder called centurionsecurityvi.com and add a mapping line reading: centurionsecurityvi.com/centurionsecurityvi.com I don't get an error. To see the error you're seeing, I first have to break the second component of the VHM mapping entry, so that it is not the same as the id of a top-level folder. I tried hitting your site from here. At http://www.centurionsecurityvi.com, I get a Not Found error for the centurionsecurityvi.com folder. But, if I hit http://www.centurionsecurityvi.com:8080/centurionsecurityvi.com I get the same error. As far as I can see, the only thing which could cause this problem is if the Zope running on this host on port 8080 doesn't have an object at the path /centurionsecurityvi.com, and that your error has nothing to do with the apache redirect, which seems to be working fine. Hope this helps. Thanks, Malcolm. -- [] j a m k i t web solutions for charities malcolm cleaton T: 020 7549 0520 F: 020 7490 1152 M: 07986 563852 W: www.jamkit.com
