Thanks for the input, I found out that the problem lies in the request. It does not allays provide enough information for the redirect rules. I wonder why chrome works at all.
Is there a way to add info to the request, that would survive a round trip? like setting a variable on the request that I can react upon? thanks robert On 01/13/2013 03:36 AM, Akash Jain wrote: > what does the rewrite logs say ? > > On Sat, Jan 12, 2013 at 8:49 PM, Robert Rottermann > <robert.rotterm...@gmx.ch <mailto:robert.rotterm...@gmx.ch>> wrote: > > Hi there, > we are about to go live with a site we reimplemented. > The site structure is different between the two sites. > > What I now would like to do is that old content is fetched from the old > site. > This I try to do with apache redirect rules: > > Here they are: > #-------------------- > # old site > #-------------------- > RewriteRule ^/web(.*) > http://127.0.0.1:8181/VirtualHostBase/http/%{SERVER_NAME}:80/ecweb/ecweb/web/VirtualHostRoot/$1 > [L,P,R] > ... > > #-------------------- > # new site > #-------------------- > RewriteRule /(.*)/$ > http://127.0.0.1:8192/VirtualHostBase/http/%{SERVER_NAME}:80/ecweb/ecweb5/VirtualHostRoot/$1 > [L,P,R] > RewriteRule ^/(.*) > http://127.0.0.1:8192/VirtualHostBase/http/%{SERVER_NAME}:80/ecweb/ecweb5/VirtualHostRoot/$1 > [L,P,R] > > Now this works fine using google chrome V23 and safari (version unknown), > but fails on firefox and IE > > you can try it yourself with: > http://www.energie-cluster.ch > http://www.energie-cluster.ch/web > > I do not have yet a proxy (like varnish) installed > > thanks for any pointers > robert > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET <http://ASP.NET>, C# 2012, > HTML5, CSS, > MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
