Not enough info to debug here, and whether it's PHP vs. Mongrel shld be irrelevant.

Short of that, here's something that works. If I state that the backend is Mongrel/Nitro will the moderator consider this on-topic? :)

<VirtualHost *:80>
 ServerName soccertackle.com
 ServerAlias www.soccertackle.com
 RewriteEngine On

 RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} www.sockertackle.com
 RewriteRule ^.*$ http://sockertackle.com$1 [L,R]

Hi All,

I have a rails app running on an apache virtual host with mongrel that
i want to set up a redirect from www.someapp.com to someapp.com
(dropping
the www.)

I have tried doing this in apache using a rewrite rule (below) which
worked before when the app was written in php.

  Redirect http://www.soccertackle.com/ http://soccertackle.com
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond   %{HTTP_HOST}   !^soccertackle\.com [NC]
  RewriteCond   %{HTTP_HOST}   !^$
  RewriteRule   ^/(.*)         http://soccertackle.com/$1 [L,R]

Now the app has been completely re written in rails using mongrel &
apache (i don't really understand much about web servers but mongrel
set up was nice and simple). However my redirect does not work any
longer. I cant seem to find any information on the web (which would
suggest i'm looking in the wrong places).

can anyone suggest a solution to my problem or point me in the right
direction?
please be gentle, as i mentioned before servers are not my strong
point.

Thank you.
