hiding the content path{request URI}

[Mahesh_Vikram]

Hi Team,

when we hit the dispatcher http://mahesh.com  --> it is routing to http://mahesh.com/geohome.html  --> is this a normal scenerio?

We have put a rewrite rule:-

RewriteRule   ^/geohome.html$    http://mahesh.com/content/mahesh/index.html  [R=301,L]

Now we have a requirement, when ever user hits our domain name http://mahesh.com it should show the content of "http://<IP>/content/mahesh/index.html"

but in the browser it should stay at http://mahesh.com 

/content/mahesh/index.html --> this should be hidden.

Thanks,

viki

Hi,

I guess, that the documentation at [1] shows in a much broader scenario, how you can implement your requirement.

kind regards,
Jörg

Hi Jorg,

To be specific.

When ever the user hits http://mahesh.com , URL should stay same http://mahesh.com and it should the content of /content/siteb/$1.html

one more Question is:-

when i hit the domain name y it is getting routed to /geohome.html(i have uninstalled Geometrix package) but still, rather than our site home page /content/siteb/$1.html.

anywhere we can do configuration so that it goes to /content/siteb/$1.html.

Thanks,

Viki

IIRC this is a property on the root node.

Hi Mahesh,

Can you check your config manager(http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr) for "Day CQ Root Mapping". I guess Target Path is given as geohome.html, Try changing it if that is the case and let me know if it is working fine.

add one more rule 

RewriteRule   ^$    http://mahesh.com/content/mahesh/index.html  [PT,L]

[Mahesh_Vikram]

we have put this rules in sequence.. but it is going to redirect loop.

RewriteRule   ^/geohome.html$    http://mahesh.com/content/mahesh/index.html  [R=301,L]

RewriteRule   ^$    http://mahesh.com/content/mahesh/index.html  [PT,L]

we tried this rule, it worked as expected.:-

RewriteEngine  on
  RewriteRule    ^/(.*)\.html$  /content/siteb/$1.html [PT]

Still working on it. will post you back.

This is confusing, Where how did you come up with siteb and Why do you want user to enter ^/geohome.html$ in first place?

Second If you don't want this then go to your publish /content node and change the rewrite rule /geohome.html to /content/mahesh/index.html or what ever you have in you home page?

Can you share all your rules because i don't think these two rules can go in Redirection loop there has to be something else?

[Amit_Kumar]

   If it's your functionality then here is the tested and verified rule 

 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  ^/geohome.html$
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}  ^mahesh.com$
    RewriteRule  ^/geohome.html$  /content/mahesh/index.html   [L,R=301]
        
      RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/|)$
      RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mahesh.com$ [NC]
       RewriteRule ^/$  /content/mahesh/index.html [L,PT]
