Hi, Thanks for your reply.
I'll try to clarify what I mean. When the user enters "http://www.place.com/"; into the browser the page that is returned is "http://www.place.com:8080/cocoon/mount/MyWebSite/";. This is very easy to achieve with a redirect but then the user will have the URL "http://www.place.com:8080/cocoon/mount/MyWebSite/"; in their browser - this is NOT what I want. Also they will be using the tomcat http rather than apache - this is also not what I want. So... :) Step 1 - get mopd_webapp running... No Problems. Now I can go to "http://www.place.com/cocoon"; and I get the same result as I would have with "http://www.place.com:8080/cocoon";. So far so good. But I don't just want to get to cocoon, I want to get to a sub-site mounted in the 'mount' directory. Now I want to be able to enter the URL "http://www.place.com/index.html"; and get back the same result as "http://www.place.com:8080/cocoon/mount/MyWebSite/index.html";. ie. within apache I need to rewrite ALL url's for a virtual host so that '/cocoon/mount/MyWebSite' is inserted at the beginning of all requests - BUT I don't want to user to see this so I can't use a redirect. This is where I get stuck. :) Thanks again, Phil On Wednesday, December 12, 2001, at 03:07 PM, David Rosenstrauch wrote: > What they're referring to in the FAQ is that, by default, all URL's > contain "cocoon" in them, since usually cocoon resides in a "cocoon" > sub-dir under, say, Tomcat.
