Sorry, I thought I was clear that I'm looking for suggestions on how to acheive the subdomain redirection in virtual hosting...


There is no such thing as a "subdomain";all vhosts have hostnames.

Just define a new vhost with the additional hostname (assuming you now have nameVirtualHost *:80, which you should):

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName my.sub.domain
    Documentroot /some/where/else
</VirtualHost>


I'm not well versed in mod_rewrite and regular expressions, etc

    Hi All,

    I have a general question regarding subdomain redirection with
    virtual hosts.

    Basically, we have a domain - let's call it sample.com
    <http://sample.com> - with several subdomains, xxx.sample.com
    <http://xxx.sample.com> and yyy.sample.com <http://yyy.sample.com>

    At the momend www.sample.com <http://www.sample.com> takes people
    to a website hosted elsewhere

    We need to have anybody hitting xxx.sample.com
    <http://xxx.sample.com> and yyy.sample.com
    <http://yyy.sample.com> redirected to their respective
    applications - running under Tomcat and reached by AJP connectors
    - through a single Apache web server (2.2.17) with mod_jk
    connector (1.2.2).

    That is, the virtual host definitions should parse the incoming
    URL, and use AJP worker1 to direct traffic to Tomcat on another
    server running the application for xxx.sample.com.....and use AJP
    worker2 to direct traffic to Tomcat on yet another server running
    the application for yyy.sample.com <http://yyy.sample.com>

    Plus, we want anybody browsing to xxx.sample.com
    <http://xxx.sample.com> or yyy.sample.com <http://yyy.sample.com>
    to have any redirection hidden from their URL, i.e. rather than
    seeing https://xxx.sample.com/xxx-application/login.jsp , they
    would see https://xxx.sample.com/login.jsp

    Been looking into mod_rewrite and mod_proxy (for proxypass and
    proxypass_reverse for hiding actual URLs)...but I think I'm
    getting overloaded with information!

    There is already a wildcard SSL certificate in place for
    *.sample.com <http://sample.com>. so that's all OK...and the AJP
    connections appear to work fine as well...it's just getting this
    darned subdomain config tied down.

    Can anybody suggest a clean way to acheive this?

    Many Thanks,
    Daz


    So what isn't working the way you expected ?
