Redirecting requests from apache to zope at port 8080

[nandoquintana]

Hi all,

I have a Zope server in the 8080 and also the preconfigurated apache.

I think .htaccess is the only method we have to perform a redirection from apache to 8080 port so...

I tried that, in the "/home/username/www/subdomain/.htaccess" file

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^subdomain.domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1:8080/$1 [P,L]

but fails...

Have anyone ever done something like that in a hotsmonster server?
Is 8080 por reachable from Internet?
Is it posible to modify any other apache conf file?

Many thanks in advance,
Nando.

ive tried to mask my domain using mod_rewrite in .htaccess just like that (sort of)- no luck.

Unfortunately, additional ports such as 8080 are closed by default on our shared IPs, for security reasons. You are more than welcome to do this with a dedicated IP, which is an extra $30/year, and allows you both outbound connections and open nonstandard ports.
