virtual subdomain

[chrischen]

I found this code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !www.polemicpost.com$ [NC]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?([a-z0-9-]+).polemicpost.com [NC]

RewriteRule (.*) %2/$1 [L]

 

However it doesn't work for me.

 

I'm trying to have it so that graphics.polemicpost.com refers to www.polemicpost.com/graphics, which is a folder. so graphics.polemicpost.com/photo1.jpg is www.polemicpost.com/graphics/photo1.jpg.

Thanks,

Chris

You will need to set up subdomains with your DNS stuff....  Possibly a wildcard subdomain.

[chrischen]

that's been done. And done in apache virtual hosts config file too.

Are you running windows or linux?

 

In windows there is also a hosts file you need to edit.

Windows and apache. I'll try that and let you know if it works. Thanks.

I added 127.0.0.1            graphics.polemicpost.com

 

to the hosts file and rebooted the computer.

 

Still gives me

Check your error log and see what it says about the error.

 

 

 

Also, editing your hosts file does nothing from the outside.  If someone else's computer doesn't have the hosts entry, the host won't resolve.
