Setting value via variable in apache httpd.conf

  • 772

I have the following entry in my apache config file:

<LocationMatch "/hls-vod/(?<id>[0-9][0-9])/(.*)">
HLSHttpStreamingEnabled true
HLSMediaFileDuration 8000
HttpStreamingContentPath    "${VIDEO_ROOT}/%{env:MATCH_id}"
HLSFmsDirPath ".."
HLSJITConfAllowed true
HLSAMFToId3MappingFilePath conf/AMF_to_Id3_Mapping.xml

The issue is that that with this in place apache won't start - it immediately crashes. I remove %{env:MATCH_id} it loads.

As far as I can tell from the apache docs though that should be valid. So I'm not sure why its dying. Can anyone help?

Apache Docs: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#locationmatch

Thanks!

  1. I solved this by enabling urlrewrite:

    LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
RewriteEngine On

    Then in the block using this rule:

    RewriteRule ^/hls-vod/(.*) /$1 [R,NC,L]

    Hope this helps someone else.
