Apache "Everything Else" Location?

jnojr · 07-22-2010, 05:14 PM

I want to pass a directive to all but one or two locations. How do I do
that?

Like:

<Location /1>
xxx
</Location>

<Location /2>
xxx
</Location>

<Location "Everything Else">
YYY
</Location>

"everything else" is your document root directory, so put the directive in there.
Create new directory configs for the ones that need it.

You don't give much detail so it's hard to guess what you're after. What do you mean by "location" ? You cold be referring to virtual hosts or directories.

I'm using the Tumbleweed certificate validator to require two-way SSL. I have one or more "Locations" (in the Apache sense, the URLs are proxied to Tomcat) that I want to exempt from certificate validation.

Currently, this is accomplished in it's own .conf file, which consists of:

Quote:

LoadModule val_cert_module modules/vcapache.so
SSLClientValidateConfig /etc/httpd/valicert/vcapache.ini
<Location />
SSLClientValidate
</Location>

What I want to wind up with is:

Quote:

LoadModule val_cert_module modules/vcapache.so
SSLClientValidateConfig /etc/httpd/valicert/vcapache.ini

<Location /test>
# This URL will not have client cert validation
</Location>

<Location />
SSLClientValidate
</Location>

Make sense?

I'll test that and see if it works as expected.
