    Gentlemen,

    When logged in as admin on the tab "SITES" you will see "Redirect" and "Options"

    At the moment I don't use this because I din't know how and I don't want to mess-up my server

    But I want to learn so what can
    • Redirect do for me ? and what about the flags ?
    • how to use the field "Directives" in the Options tab ?

    This is explained quite quickly:


    There are two redirection possibilities.

    1. redirect to an other domain
      Just set the type to "no flag" and the path to "http://www.myotherdomain.com".
    2. redirect to a subfolder
      Let's say you have www.example.com as a domain and you do not want to use the /web/ folder but the /web/exfolder/ for your data.
      1. visible redirect
        Choose R or R,L as type and enter /exfolder/ into the path field. Anyone calling www.example.com will be redirected to www.example.com/exfolder/ and this will be visible in the browser's address bar
      2. hidden redirect
        Choose no flag or L as type and enter /exfolder/ into the path field. It works the same as above with the difference that the user will still see www.example.com in the address bar.



    oups till, you were faster

    @ Croydon,

    Thank you for your explanation and if I understand you I don't need to redirect.
    I have two domains and they will have different content.

    Maybe in future if I install "Joomla" in a folder named "joomla" and I want my visitors to visit something.org instead of someting.org/joomla

    PS maybe you can explain "quite quickly" what to do with the field "Directives" in the Options tab ?
    I liked your explanation in dummy language for redirect

    Well, I don't think this is as easy as explaining redirect ;)

    In short: you can put everything there that is allowed in a virtual host section inside the apache config.

    Examples for directives (taken from the apache config generated by ispconfig):

    Code:
    ErrorLog /var/log/ispconfig/httpd/test.de/error.log
    
        ErrorDocument 400 /error/400.html
        ErrorDocument 401 /error/401.html
        ErrorDocument 403 /error/403.html
        ErrorDocument 404 /error/404.html
        ErrorDocument 405 /error/405.html
        ErrorDocument 500 /error/500.html
        ErrorDocument 503 /error/503.html
    Code:
    <Directory /var/www/clients/client0/web1/web>
            Options FollowSymLinks
            AllowOverride Indexes AuthConfig Limit FileInfo
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from all
            <Files ~ '.php[s3-6]{0,1}$'>
                Order allow,deny
                Deny from all
                Allow from none
            </Files>
        </Directory>
    Code:
        # suexec enabled
        SuexecUserGroup web8 client1
        # php as fast-cgi enabled
        <Directory /var/www/xxxxxxxxxx/web>
            AddHandler fcgid-script .php .php3 .php4 .php5
            FCGIWrapper /var/www/php-fcgi-scripts/web8/.php-fcgi-starter .php
            Options +ExecCGI
            AllowOverride all
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from all
        </Directory>
    
    You see it's really not easy to explain everything possible there ;)

    @ Croydon,

    I think I better leave this one alone !

    I have a other question.

    When finished installing my server ( at this moment there are no clients or websites ) I made a phpinfo.php file and it showed a lot and also information about Apache.
    Now I have 2 clients ( me and my son ) with 3 websites and I copy the phpinfo.php file to the websites and now no Apache information ?

    Does it show anything at all, or do you maybe see the PHP source code of the file in your browser?
