That's odd. I do the inverse of that to remove www and have a naked
domain, but using mod_rewrite in httpd. The rewrite rule is otherwise
the same. I thought the syntax was the same. Maybe something inside
tomcat is forcing a / at the end of the domain for canonicalization,
and then the extra / is getting added by the rewrite valve rule?
Looking at a different server where I force the www, I have this instead :
RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://www.domain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
You can try this instead. It won't be putting a / in there unless it
is already present in the uri passed (unlike the other version where a
/ will be appended even if the uri is blank)

It kind of works now but when it redirects it adds two slashes to the end
of domain:

I have now successfully loaded the rewrite valve in the application
context.xml but I am getting the following error on start up:
java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException
This is the rewrite.config file:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(.*)\.domain\.org\ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.org/$1 [R=301,L]
It looks like the first line is an error and I don't know enough about
regex to fix it.
Any help is great thanks.

Re: Redirecting a naked domain to sub domain
I usually handle the redirect on the webserver side and set the alias in server.xml to the subdomain.

Redirecting a naked domain to sub domain
Hi, I was going to do a redirect at my dns provider from the naked domain to the www subdomain. Unfortunatly this doesn't really work if it is over https so I am going to have to do the redirect at the host level. My question is, is this what the rewrite valve is for? I was going to set up two hosts, one for the naked domain and one for the subdomain with a set up like the following: If this is what the rewrite valve is for, how do I configure it to redirect to the subdomain apart from when it accesses the .well-known folder (which is needed to get a letsencrypt certificate). If the rewrite valve is not the correct way to do this do I just deploy a catch all servlet or a filter to do the redirect instead? Thanks, Simon
