It turns out that the only way to do a redirect in an Access Rule is through a raise redirect since the return value of an Access Rule is ignored. So, again thanks to Evan for this nugget, here's the way to a redirect in a Python Script-based Access Rule: if host == 'foo.com': raise 'Redirect', 'http://www.foo.com'

I get this error:

Error Type: NameError Error Value: RESPONSE

I'm actually trying to do this in an Access Rule to be used along with a VHM (much thanks to Evan for helping me get that set up). The code goes something like this:

""" host = req['HTTP_HOST'] stack = req['TraversalRequestNameStack']

if host == 'www.foo.com': stack.extend(['VirtualHostRoot', 'foo', 'vhosts']) elif host == 'foo.com': return RESPONSE.redirect('http://www.foo.com') """

BTW, I'm using 2.3.0 on FreeBSD 4.2

What parameters are you passing to the method? I am not familiar with the details of VHM...

If you are not passing RESPONSE, but are passing REQUEST, you can get REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect()

otherwise, life gets interesting.... and you have to go ask someone else.. (o8

Have a better one, Curis Maloney
