Hello Yawsers,
Currently the following is valid in a <redirect/> block:
Path = [Scheme://]Host[:Port]
It seems to me that this doesn't allow for local redirection where you
simply want to redirect one folder to another.
e.g requests to /old/ will be redirected to /new/
(Where /old may or may not exist as a physical folder)
I tried things like:
<redirect>
/old/ = myhostname/new/
</redirect>
with and without trailing slashes..
But of course the redirect ends up with a URL of something like
http://myhostname/new//old/
whereas it should be just http://myhostname/new/
Could the Path directive be extended to be something like the following?
Path = [Scheme://][Host][:Port][RedirectPath]
Where Host is optional and defaults to that of the request's host header.
Disambiguating RedirectPath & Host should be possible by requiring a leading
slash in the RedirectPath.
"/old = new" would assume "new" is a hostname
"/old = /new" would treat /new as the RedirectPath
It seems to me that such a basic type of redirection should be simple -
ie not require the admin to write and install a rewrite mod.
What do others think?
How would one currently go about redirecting a path (and therefore all
subpaths) to another path under the same host?
Cheers,
Julian Noble
