Hi,

You should post the apache config file, so we can see how those redirects are performed, in order to assist you.

Cheers

Hello,
thi is the redirect I believe is causing trouble with my server-status page:

######################## ######################
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin support@localhhost
ServerName www.emailplanning.com
DocumentRoot /srv/www/htdocs
Redirect / http://www.clicplanning.com/
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error_log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access_log combined
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/*.conf

Alias /emailIncludes "/srv/www/secure/emailIncludes"

<Directory "/srv/www/secure/emailIncludes">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

</VirtualHost>
############################ END MAIN VHOST ##########################

let me know if you need something more.

thank you.

Hi,

You can use mod_rewrite onstead of "Redirect" to overcome this inconvenience:

Code:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/server-status
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.clicplanning.com$1

If you allow /server-status only from localhost, then you need to add:

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^localhost$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/server-status
RewriteRule /server-status http://localhost/server-status
