Greetings,I've seen the "Multiple DSpace Instances" wiki page, but I want one DSpace, multiple domains. I'm using DSpace 1.5.2 on behind Apache httpd with a ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse. The server is Linux/Tomcat 5.5/httpd 2.2.
Our DSpace instance is running on /dspace.example.org/ (in dspace.cfg) but we want to migrate to /publications.example.org/ while temporarily maintaining compatibility with old links. Is rewriting (URLs/Headers/Cookies?) the way to go, or can DSpace somehow handle requests from multiple domains?
As far as Apache httpd is concerned, as long as DNS is set up correctly, my VirtualHost will capture the requests on both domains and pass them internally to Tomcat. The last time I tried that I couldn't get it working and we were rushing to deploy so we are only using the "old" domain.
One thought is that it might be easier to switch our DSpace instance to the new domain (/publications.example.org/), and then use mod_rewrite to 301 old URLs (/dspace.example.org/) to the new URL.
