is there a way via RewriteRule to force all access to a certain URL
to return with a HTTP 500
e.g. i have a number 3 applications that are or will be obsoleted
and is expected to return a 500 to all callers who try to access it.
so when someone tries to access a deprecated URL such as http://myserver/myApp1
I would like to send back a 500 and preferably some textual
information (nice to have).
Will it be possible to do this via mod_rewrite?
You can use the R flag to return any valid HTTP status
RewriteRule ^/myApp1 - [R=500]
but, as Nick says, returning a 500 for it seems to be a lot less
useful than a 404 or a 410 and an ErrorDocument.
