I'm using Apache conf right out of the cluster example from the Mongrel

I couldn't find that, so I'm assuming your rewrite rules look like this:
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* balancer://mongrel_cluster%{REQUEST_URI} [P,QSA,L]
I have a directory under my apps 'public' directory called 'sendto'. Files
in that directory are accessible but I want to be able to provide a
directory listing for when no specific file is requested.
Right now, it seems that the requests to http://domain.com/sendto/ are being
sent to the cluster.
I am looking for a rewrite statement that basically tells Apache not to send
that specific URL pattern to the cluster.
to achiee this, just add another RewriteCond line:
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sendto
RewriteRule .* balancer://mongrel_cluster%{REQUEST_URI} [P,QSA,L]
this excludes requests pointing to URIs starting with /sendto from being
sent via the balancer. Instead these requests will be served by Apache,
and directory listings can be allowed with something like
Directory /path/to/public/sendto
Options Indexes
/Directory
hth,
Jens

[Mongrel] Telling Apache Not to Send a Sub-Directory to the Cluster
Howdy, I am using Apache 2.2 and Mongrel with great success. I have a mod_rewrite question and I am NO expert. I think it's really simple but I haven't nailed it. I was hoping someone here could help. I'm using Apache conf right out of the cluster example from the Mongrel site. I have a directory under my apps 'public' directory called 'sendto'. Files in that directory are accessible but I want to be able to provide a directory listing for when no specific file is requested. Right now, it seems that the requests to http://domain.com/sendto/ are being sent to the cluster. I am looking for a rewrite statement that basically tells Apache not to send that specific URL pattern to the cluster. Can anyone help?

Thanks, that's what I'm going for but just like you, not good enough to get there. Been messing with the docs for the past hour and no luck yet. I was hoping a guru could lend a hand.

Turn up the log level for rewrite and watch it... that helps a lot when futzing with those things...
