Description

I've got a staging deployment under fin. subdomain. Is there anything that I should know about how to make that work?

Presently I'm copying my binary to the /var/www/fin/html folder. When I try to call the fin.domain-name.com I get a 403. I've set this up with virtual hosts on Apache many times using other frameoworks, but I cannot figure out why it won't work in Witty.

This was an issue setting up a self signed wildcard certificate. Nothing to to with Wt. I fixed my cert and can call both www and fin from http and https. I have one final problem remaining on this matter, however, which is that authentication doesn't work within the subdomain (only works in www).

   <VirtualHost *:80>
      ServerName www.app+name.com
      ServerAlias fin.app+name.com

      setEnv staging
      FcgidInitialEnv WT_APP_ROOT /var/www/fin/application

      DocumentRoot /var/www/fin/html
      AddHandler fcgid-script .wt
      DirectoryIndex app+name-fin.wt

      <Directory /var/www/fin/html>
         ServerSignature Off
         #Order Allow,Deny
         #Allow from all

         AuthType Digest
         AuthName "Private"
         AuthUserFile /var/www/passwd/digst
         Require user fin-usr

         Options +ExecCGI -Indexes
      </Directory>

      RewriteEngine on
      RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.fin.app+name\.com [NC]
      RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
      RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://fin\.app+name.com/$1 [R=301,L]

      SetOutputFilter Deflate
      AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html

      ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/fin/cgi-bin

   </VirtualHost>

If I set up auth as shown in directory above, I get 403; while if I apply the same code in www the authentication mechanism works fine. Have you guys run in to this issue?

Regardless of the problems using AuthType Digest, what is the story with Apache rewrites? My rewrite rules are not getting applied even if they are placed within an .htaccess file (instead of the virtual host).

I need an example of virtual hosts setup with multiple subdomains, wildcard ssl, and Apache using fcgid and rewrites set up on a Linux box. Can someone direct me to such an example? If I can't even get the rewrites to work I'm not sure what the point is in continuing to experiment with this framework.

Here is the deal. I'm using Apache2 mod_rewrite module with the following located within /var/www/html/.htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   Options +FollowSymLinks
   Options +Indexes
   RewriteEngine On
   AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !www.domain.com$ [NC]
   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com [NC]
   RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

My expectation is that when user calls domain.com they should be redirected to www.domain.com. What is actually happening is absolutely nothing. The rewrite log entries for call to http://domain.com are shown below:

I see that embweb just put out a release candidate. Congratulations. I intent to install it on my rebuild this weekend. No doubt you guys have more important things to handle than my problems, so it is understandable if you don't get to these questions of mine...

Latest:

Adding +FollowSymLink in the .htaccess file allowed rewrites to function, but for my life I cannot get them to do so properly. SSL mostly works except for the rewrite issue: my setup will redirect http://domain.com to http://www.domain.com but not https://domain.com to https://www.domain.com.

The .htaccess file:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   Options +FollowSymLinks -Indexes
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /

   # Externally redirect from non-www, non-canonical hostname to the
   # canonical www hostname, preserving current HTTP/HTTPS protocol
   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com$
   RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT}s ^(443(s)|[0-9]+s)$
   RewriteRule (.*) http%2://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

The virtual hosts file:

<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>

   NameVirtualHost *:80
   NameVirtualHost *:443

   FcgidMaxProcesses 150

   <VirtualHost *:80>

The AuthDigest only works in /var/www/html and not in /var/www/fin/html. I can't believe how many hours I've spend trying to figure this stupid thing out today.

My hosts file looks like this:
