FYI, in these situations I put bits I want to enforce SSL on in a
folder called secure, and then do mod_rewrite variations on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/.*secure.*/
RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://www.foobar.com/$1

This document refers to handling situations where you have a very large number of virtual hosts and don't want a separate VirtualHost directive for each one (because they're all very similar). This is not my case, but it could be the original poster's.

In a manner of speaking, yes. That is, Apache needs to have correctly configured VirtualHost directives to handle the requests from the outside world appropriately, and Zope needs to have the SiteAccess product installed with correctly configured SiteRoots and access rules.

hi, With Apache in front of zope, do you disable Medusa? And do you need to set both Apache and Zope to have the vhosts (do I need to set up a vhost twice?). Thanks, j. .. . Jason C. Leach ...

I also would prefer to split the log via regexp-filters just before doing statistics or rotating (ie. not in zope). A pure logfile doesn't reveal useful informations anyway without some processing.

I'm not exactly sure what your goal is... but if you're just trying to generate separate log files for each of your virtual sites, I'm accomplishing that by having my virtual sites proxied behind Apache (using SiteAccess and the ProxyPass directive) and specifying the log files for each VirtualHost in my httpd.conf file. You can control the contents of the logs using the LogFormat directive; I use the same format for all of my virtual hosts, but I think you can specify a different log format for each host if you desire. If you're trying to accomplish something else which requires you to handle the logging on the Zope side of things, then it seems to me that your idea would work, although I'd want to find out how my server performance would be affected...

[Zope] VHost logs.
hi, Has anyone implemented there own logging for Virtual Sites? I was thinking in the site rules an External Method could be called, passed the Request obj, and from that generate logs for virtual sites. If anyone has done that, or knows of a better way I'd be interested in hearing it. j. .. . Jason C. Leach ...
