http://serverfault.com – I've migrated my blog from wordpress to Octopress, and from one domain to another. I want to create rewrites from old pages to new ones (old structure is http://domain.old/?p=number). I've created server block for this purpose which contains: server { listen 80; listen [::]:80; server_name .domain.old; rewrite .*p=1$ https://domain.new/2011/rebirth/ permanent; rewrite .*p=11$ https://domain.new/2011/travelling-salesman-problem/ permanent; rewrite .*p=14$ https://domain.new/2011/minecraft-classic-client-with-fly-ability/ permanent; # rewrite ^ https://domain.new per (HowTos)

I'd like only my base domain www.domain.com to be rewritten to https://www.domain.com By default in my https block I have it reroute to http:// if it's not ~uri = "/" (base domain) or static content.

server { listen 443; set $ssltoggle 2; if ($uri ~ ^/(img|js|css|static)/) { set $ssltoggle 1; } if ($uri = '/') { set $ssltoggle 1; } if ($ssltoggle != 1) {

I read through some guides on this and I believe it is possible to have apache respond to a subdomain through ssl. I have domain.com responding on 80 and I do not need domain.com responding on 443.

I know this must have been answered a million times but I can't seem to get it to work

I would like to redirect a subdomain to a subdirectory.

I am currently using

server { server_name sub.domain.com; rewrite ^(.*) http://www.domain.com/sub-directory permanent; }

If I navigate to sub.domain.com I am redirected to http://www.domain.com

EDIT

Here's my full config.

SSL installation 35 weeks 3 days ago

Hello I have a few questions regarding installation of SSL.

The domain for the cpanel account I want to use ssl for is domain.com but I have rewrites to www.domain.com in my .htaccess file.

From what I've read I should get a certificate for www.domain.com then, is this correct?

Should I generate the signing request in WHM or cpanel?

DNS for a subdomain 40 weeks 5 days ago

I have: - two DNS servers: 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2 - domain name: domain.com pointed to 1.1.1.1

I want to point sub domain: sub.domain.com to 2.2.2.2 (obviously www.sub.domain.com too)

on 1.1.1.1 I've create a DNS A record pointing sub.domain.com to 2.2.2.2

accessing sub.domain.com now lead to 2.2.2.2 successfully

the problem is the DNS records on 2.2.2.2 such as CNAME www do not work means access

Here's a quick summary of the environment I support: we have a domain (domain A) that has about 20 client computers. The domain server for this domain and all the clients sit within the network infrastructure of a larger domain (domain B). All the computers get their network settings via DHCP from domain B's servers.

I've been looking for a solution to the following problem for a few days now. I have domain.com for which I have bought and installed a wildcard certificate so now I can provide secure access to www.domain.com or whatever.domain.com.

what is the best possible way to redirect and rewrite url in virtual host file?

I want to make sure it is not heavy on the server.

I tried many ways on the virtualhost file but when I restart the apache it fails. I dont want to use .htaccess...
