URL Redirection in Apache

harshaabba · 02-21-2011, 03:53 AM

hi,

I setup apache server in order to gain access for the smokeping network monitoring system.

I accessing the system using following url

http://<server-ip>/smokeping/smokeping.cgi

But I want this page access using the following url

http://<server-ip>/smokeping.cgi

My httpd.conf file looks like

Alias /smokeping/ "/usr/local/smokeping/htdocs/"

<Directory /usr/local/smokeping/htdocs/>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
DirectoryIndex smokeping.cgi
Options -Indexes ExecCGI
</Directory>

your responses are highly.

tnx

Hi,

You should use mod_rewrite. Create (or edit if iit exists) a .htaccess file in the server's DocumentRoot and use:

Code:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^smokeping.cgi$ /smokeping/smokeping.cgi [L]
