Hi,
I am looking at some documentation that seems to be contradictory.
The default root for Apache2 is /var/www/html. (on Ubuntu 24.04lts)
The article I am looking at shows that a new virtual host should have a
path /var/www/[domain]/public_html.
So far so good.
ChatGPT says to add the following code to the default virtual host
configuration file as part of the configuration of mod_rewrite:
<Directory /var/www/html>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^oldpage.html$ newpage.html [R=301,L]
</Directory>
I'm thinking to make the mod_rewrite apply to all virtual hosts the path
needs to be /var/www/ like this:
<Directory /var/www/>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^oldpage.html$ newpage.html [R=301,L]
</Directory>
Another article shows:
<Directory /var/www/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
This seems to imply each virtual host will need to be configured
individually for mod_rewrite like this:
<Directory /var/www/[domain]/public_html/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
And the mod_rewrite configuration also requires a .htaccess file.
Any thoughts are much appreciated.
Keith
