RewriteRule will by default only match the request, that is the "/
profile" part. Apparently the RewriteRule can back-reference to the
last-matched RewriteCond. So the following *should* work.
Of course, mod_rewrite is called "voodoo" even by experts, so it's
possible that my logic is flawed.
In any case, you can try:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (.*).mysite.com$
RewriteRule /profile http://mysite.com/profile.jsp?u=%N [L]

I'm trying to set it up so that users of my site can enter a url like
"username.mysite.com/profile" that will rewrite to
"mysite.com/profile.jsp?u=username", or something of that nature. From
what I understand, using mod_rewrite is the best way to do this.
I've added the following to my httpd.conf file -
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (some reg exp) /mysite.com/profile.jsp?u=($1)
I'm using mod_jk2, which is configured so that any url request made to
apache that ends with ".jsp" will be handed off to Tomcat.
The problem is, when my rewrite rule executes, the
/mysite.com/profile.jsp?u=($1) isn't handed off to Tomcat. Instead,
apache looks for a file called /mysite.com/profile.jsp located in my
document root! Obviously not what I desire to happen.
I've seen sites posting solutions to related problems, saying I should
change the order of loading in httpd.conf for mod_rewrite and mod_jk2.
But that didn't change anything. Can somebody please tell me what I've
done wrong here?
