Apache - Redirect while dropping everything after domain

  • 772

So I can do a simple redirect on an Apache virtual host like this:

<VirtualHost *:443>
        ServerName www.old-domain.com
        Redirect / www.new-domain.com/new-resource

</VirtualHost>

But of course, if I go to www.old-domain.com/old-resource it redirects to www.new-domain.com/new-resourceold-resource. I'd like to just drop everything after the old domain name, regardless of the directory or file, so www.old-domain.com/whatever/doesntmatter/foo.html still just redirects to www.new-domain.com/new-resource.

How do I accomplish that?

  1. Okay, with a bit more searching it found this question, and it's a pretty simple solution:

    <VirtualHost *:443>
        ServerName www.old-domain.com
        RewriteEngine on
        RewriteRule ^/?.+$ www.new-domain.com [L,R]
</VirtualHost>
