Bug ID: 70017
Summary: RewriteRule Directive: "possible substitution
combinations" unclear
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.5-HEAD
Hardware: All
URL: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/mod_rewrite
.html#rewriterule
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P5
Component: Documentation
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
The documentation of the RewriteRule directive contains:
> Here are all possible substitution combinations and their meanings:
That is followed by 2 tables listing such combinations.
It is unclear what the elements of a combination are. I am far from mastering
rewriting, and am even less sure about how that document and the one specific
to flags should be divided, but I would suggest something like:
> A rewrite rule cannot use both proxy and redirect, and some forms of
> substitutions are only valid in certain contexts with certain sets of flags.
> Here are all possible combinations of substitution forms and these 2 flags
> and their meanings in the following contexts:
I would also recommend:
1. Changing "Inside per-server configuration" to "Outside per-directory
configuration" or "Inside server-wide configuration" (since per-directory
configuration can be in httpd.conf).
2. Replacing the 2 columns currently in each table with the following columns:
1. Substitution (for example, otherpath$1)
2. Substitution form (for example, URL-path)
3. Flags (for example, [R])
4. Effect
