Dear list, This is a follow-up to my previous how-to [1]. I made some progress and I'd like to share my insights with the public.
As a reminder, I decided to host the project website of "mingw-cross-env" at http://mxe.cc/ and thus needed to install the respective HTTP redirects: http://mingw-cross-env.nongnu.org/* -> http://mxe.cc/* http://www.nongnu.org/mingw-cross-env/* -> http://mxe.cc/* My previous solution [1] was a bit disappointing, but in the meantime, I got in touch with a Savannah admin. He enabled .htaccess for both URLs. Happy with that, my first attempt was the following very simple .htaccess: RedirectPermanent / http://mxe.cc/ This worked fine for the first URL, but it caused the second URL "www.nongnu.org/mingw-cross-env" to be redirected to "mxe.cc/mingw-cross-env" instead of "mxe.cc". So I had to change my .htaccess as follows: RedirectPermanent /mingw-cross-env/ http://mxe.cc/ RedirectPermanent /mingw-cross-env http://mxe.cc/ RedirectPermanent / http://mxe.cc/ Now everything works fine. I hope this little report will help other project maintainers who face a similar issue.
