Dear admins of Debian webmirrors (in BCC), As you may know, www.debian.org recently moved to GeoDNS[0]. http://dsa.debian.org/dsablog/2009/07/Howto_mess_up_the_Debian_Project_homepage/
Though for the moment, only a subset of webmirrors are part of the GeoDNS setup, it raises some issues about Apache (or whatever daemon) configuration with respect to virtual hosts, content-negociation and mime types. 1/ Virtual hosts ---------------- Please check that you allow www.debian.org as virtualhost for your mirror of the Debian website. 2/ Mime-types ------------- Recent apache version will serve *.es as ecmascript, so the web page wil not be displayed correctly to spanish users. <Files *.html.es> ForceType text/html </Files> <Files *.pdf.es> ForceType application/pdf </Files> <Files *.txt.es> ForceType text/plain </Files> 3/ Other parameters, like redirection, language: ------------------------------------------------ Please review your apache configuration according to http://www.debian.org/mirror/webmirror.en.html#ref Don't hesitate to ask for help/details on [email protected]. Thanks and best regards.
