Question

For various reasons, such as cookies, SEO, and to keep things simple, I would like to make apache automatically redirect any requests for http://www.foobar.com/anything to http://foobar.com/anything. The best I could come up with is a mod_rewrite-based monstrosity, is there some easy simple way to tell it ‘Redirect all requests for domain ABC to XYZ’?

PS: I found this somewhat related question, but it’s for IIS and does the opposite of what I want. Also it’s still complex.

Answer 1

It’s as easy as:

<VirtualHost 10.0.0.1:80>         ServerName www.example.com         Redirect permanent / http://example.com/ </VirtualHost> 

Adapt host names and IPs as needed 🙂
