Rewrite to another Port

Hi,

can somebody tell me how to make a ReWrite Rule
for changing port ?

Example:

User calls sub.domain.com
and rewrite should go to sub.domain.com:82 ?

Thanks for your help.

Bye, Fabian

You can use a Redirect in a VirtualHost directive such as

<VirtualHost *>
Redirect / sub.domain.com:82
ServerName sub.domain.com
</VirtualHost>

Hi Davide,

i know this way, but I want to use a wildcard way,
so i don't have to know each subdomain.

Do you understand me ?

I want apache to take the domain and subdomain
the user entered and redirect it to port 82


Thanks for your help.

Hemmm... Not completely, if you user type "http://www.somedomain.com" in
his browser there is a DNS that resolve the name into your server, if
you want EVERYTHING routed to port 82, you can use the Redirect directive
in the "normal" configuration (outside virtual hosts) and that's it,
but then the question is, why you want it redirected to port 82??

If you have two Web servers on one single machine, and you want to
use Apache as "proxy" to manage both, use the ProxyPass directive of
mod_proxy, is way effective.

Please, explain a little bit your problem and not your solution.

Well, this is quite weird, I saw things like this done with IIS and
Apache on the same machine, never between two Apaches, but..

I think that, if you really want to use the mod_rewrite, it should be
something like

RewriteRule ^http://subdmain/(.*)$ http://subdomain:82/$1 [P]

But I'm no rewrite guru, so test it...

Hi Davide,

thank you very much.

I think this is what I mean, but it does not work.

Do you have another idea ?

Thank you very much,

Bye, Fabian
