Hi All,
I have a rails app running on an apache virtual host with mongrel that i want to set up a redirect from www.myapp.com to myapp.com (dropping the www.)
I have tried doing this in apache using a rewrite rule (below) which worked before when the app was written in php.
Redirect http://www.soccertackle.com/ http://soccertackle.com RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^soccertackle\.com [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$ RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://soccertackle.com/$1 [L,R]
Now the app has been completely re written in rails using mongrel & apache (i don't really understand much about web servers but mongrel set up was nice and simple). However my redirect does not work any longer. I cant seem to find any information on the web (which would suggest i'm looking in the wrong places).
can anyone suggest a solution to my problem or point me in the right direction? please be gentle, as i mentioned before servers are not my strong point.
Thank you.
