Apache Redirect IP Address
-
Dears,
i have two Web Servers configured with Apache on AIX Power Servers , i need to make
anyone who accesses the IP Address of the Server-1 to be redirected to the IP Address of the Server-2.
i have added the below in the httpd.conf of Server-1 but not working with me
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://the.other.ip.address$1 -
Have you tried it without using SSL? Off the top of my head I'm not 100% postivite but I believe most browsers may prevent url redirects with https for obvious reasons.

Nginx has no issues with it. It is a redirect after landing it should be fine. Nothing bad about that. The SSL path is still valid.

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://the.other.ip.address$1I'm not familiar with Apache redirects. But Google told me this.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31141092/apache-mod-rewrite-needs-to-keep-the-path-but-change-the-domainYou use a condition and a rule.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www\.)?exploreworlds\.co\.uk [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.exploreworlds.co.uk/%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]So if your condition is matching, this would be the rule.
RewriteRule ^ http://the.other.ip%{REQUEST_URI} -

Very possible it might be iframes I was thinking of.

RewriteRule ^ http://the.other.ip%{REQUEST_URI}And make sure your config files get hit (correct vhost etc). Check logfiles.

mod_proxy is a total different thing. It's a reverse proxy, acting as a client to another webserver.
As for your planned HTTP 301/302: I guess millions of Apaches do this simple kind of forward today. No need for mod_proxy.
