Help with rewrite rule...

[ediruzza]

We've been racking our heads trying to figure out what the syntax should be for this ReWrite Rule...

Here's what we are trying to do.

- We have a secured domain - it's called "

https://ssl.mydomain.com"

- All the code for the domain is in the directory "f:/webstuff/code"
- There are additional folders beneath the 'code' folder (up to 5 levels deep)

So far, pretty simple...

- We are setting up clients with their own login in name, i.e. client1, client2, client3, etc.
- We would like to trap the clients name within the URL, however, we still want to redirect them to the main directory "F:/webstuff/code"
- Basically, the URL would look something like this for the above clients.
"

https://ssl.mydomain.com/client1/index.php"

"

https://ssl.mydomain.com/client2/index.php"

"

https://ssl.mydomain.com/clientN/index.php"

- Obviously, we don't want to create a 'clientN' folder for each client.
- We just want to redirect them back to the main folder.

Here's what we have in the ssl.conf file. (we are running Apache 2.0.37)

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule (.*)/(.*) f:/webstuff/code/$2

The problem with this code is that any attempt to get past the 'code' folder results in an error 404.

So, "

https://ssl.mydomain.com/client1/index.php"

works...but,
"

https://ssl.mydomain.com/client1/test/index.php"

does not work...

I'm sure this is pretty simple...but we are new at this...

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
