Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Hello! I have successfully installed JServ 1.1 with Apache 1.3.9 in Solaris 2.5.1. I read the FAQ and most of the mod_rewrite related messages in this list and found lots of helpful comments (thanks for the excellent FAQ!). My problem is similar with most others in that I need to pass some requests to a single servlet. I have configured Apache so that mod_jserv and mod_rewrite are loaded in correct order. Here is my rewrite rule: RewriteEngine on RewriteLog "/usr/home/villes/apache/logs/rewrite.log" RewriteLogLevel 9 RewriteRule ^/$ /phoenix/com.teamw.phoenix.system.PhxInvoker [PT] In my environment I have lots of servlets with suffix ".phx". This suffix is mapped also to the PhxInvoker servlet in jserv.conf: ApJServAction .phx /phoenix/com.teamw.phoenix.system.PhxInvoker The URIs are in format "/service/servlet.phx" with parameters either in query format or what we call a "virtual path". For example, URI "/phoenix/ResTree.phx/configuration/phoenix" goes to PhxInvoker, which loads "com.teamw.phoenix.system.ResTree" class and passes virtual path "/configuration/phoenix" to it. My rewrite rule works fine without virtual paths, i.e. the "/" is passed to PhxInvoker, which loads a default servlet. But when virtual path is included in the URI, the mod_rewrite seems to handle the request twice (first with full URI, then with virtual path!). Here is the rewrite.log with above URI: 141.192.29.35 - - [07/Feb/2000:17:16:38 +0200] [sapporo.sq.icl. fi/sid#23068][rid#5be10/initial] (2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /phoenix/ResTree.phx/configuration/phoenix/ 141.192.29.35 - - [07/Feb/2000:17:16:38 +0200] [sapporo.sq.icl. fi/sid#23068][rid#5be10/initial] (3) applying pattern '^/$' to uri '/phoenix/ResTree.phx/configuration/phoenix/' 141.192.29.35 - - [07/Feb/2000:17:16:38 +0200] [sapporo.sq.icl. fi/sid#23068][rid#5be10/initial] (1) pass through /phoenix/ResTree. phx/configuration/phoenix/ 141.192.29.35 - - [07/Feb/2000:17:16:38 +0200] [sapporo.sq.icl. fi/sid#23068][rid#63e80/subreq] (2) init rewrite engine with requested uri /configuration/phoenix/ 141.192.29.35 - - [07/Feb/2000:17:16:38 +0200] [sapporo.sq.icl. fi/sid#23068][rid#63e80/subreq] (1) pass through /configuration/phoenix/ I read the mod_rewrite document and tried with different flags. I was hoping mod_rewrite would not do subrequests with flags [PT,NS] or [PT,L]. But so far, no luck. Is this a known feature or have I missed something? How can I stop mod_rewrite processing the same URI twice? I have been able to pass all requests to PhxInvoker with rule: RewriteRule ^(.*) /phoenix/com.teamw.phoenix.system.PhxInvoker [PT] This is very good, even the virtual paths work. But I know my boss doesn't like it because all static HTML pages and CGI scripts are passed to my servlet. All fancy Apache features are lost... Any comments are welcome!
