mod_rewrite not redirecting

Hi,

I'm trying to redirect

wiki.foo.com ---> http://www.foo.com/moinwiki

therefore I added this to my httpd.conf:

Code:

<VirtualHost _default_:80>

    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteLog "/var/log/apache/rewrite.log"

    RewriteLogLevel 9



    RewriteRule ^wiki(.*)$ http://www.foo.com/moinwiki [R]

</VirtualHost>

in the rewrite.log I get:

Code:

[24/Jul/2008:10:24:56 +0200] [www.foo.com/sid#80c3974][rid#80b3c6c/initial] (2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /moinwiki

10.0.10.61 - - [24/Jul/2008:10:24:56 +0200] [www.foo.com/sid#80c3974][rid#80b3c6c/initial] (3) applying pattern '^wiki(.*)$' to uri '/moinwiki'

10.0.10.61 - - [24/Jul/2008:10:24:56 +0200] [wwwfoo.com/sid#80c3974][rid#80b3c6c/initial] (1) pass through /moinwiki

but I get www.foo.com instead of www.foo.com/moinwiki.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,

You need a virtualhost for wiki.foo.com as follows:

Code:

<VirtualHost _default_:80>

    ServerName wiki.foo.com

    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.foo.com/moinwiki [R]

</VirtualHost>

(wiki.foo.com must be in the foo.com DNS zone file for this to work)

Clearly you then need another virtualhost to host the www.foo.com domain.

Thanks for your answer,
I did as advised, but the result is still the same....
