Summary: [FEATURE REQUEST] New "Redirect" argument to
UseCanonicalName
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.3-HEAD
Platform: All
URL: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#usecano
nicalname
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: Core
AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
ReportedBy: rbo...@apache.org
I'd like a new argument to UseCanonicalName. The current syntax of
UseCanonicalName is:
UseCanonicalName On|Off|DNS
I'd like a fourth option, 'Redirect', which would do the same thing as:
RewriteRule (.*) http://$SERVERNAME/$1 [R,L]
That is, any request that's received on a ServerAlias will be immediately
redirected to the canonical ServerName value.
The justifications for this are numerous, from preserving the right hostname in
cookies, to ensuring the right hostname for SSL certificates, to the eternal
(if occasionally misguided) quest for SEO brownie points.
This also goes under the general heading of my quest to see mod_rewrite become
unnecessary except for the gravest situations. :-)
