Hello,

sorry for not being precise enough.

That's right. I try to replace the 1.3.6 with the 1.3.22. I compiled the
1.3.22 from source on the same machine it is running on now on port 81.

The server has several DNS-entrys and can be called without it's FQDN as
http://server instead of http://server.ourdomain.com. There are several
fastcgis running where scripts point to the FQDN and don't work if you
call them by http://server, so I want to redirect any request to the
server to http://server.ourdomain.com.

> - what is actually happening

The request to http://server redirects me to
http://server.ourdomain.com, problem is, I don't get redirected to
index.html (index.html exists and is DirectoryIndex). In the browser, I
just see a page with a headline of "302 found" and on the page itself
"Found. The document has moved here." where the "here" is a link to this
same page.

> - what directives you think are important

Only thing that seems to change anything is _where_ I point the redirect
to. If I'm using:

RewriteRule ^/(.+)   http://server.ourdomain.com:80/$1 [R,L]

(pointing to the 1.3.6 on port 80), I'm redirected exactly to the page I
requested. That means, I ask for "http://server:81/example.html" I get
"http://server.ourdomain.com:80/example.html".

If I change the rewrite rule to:

RewriteRule ^/(.+)   http://server.ourdomain.com:81/$1 [R,L]

(now pointing to the 1.3.22 on port 81, that is, to itself) and ask for
"http://server/example.html", in the status line of the browser I see
"http://server.ourdomain.com:81/example.html", but don't get the page I
requested but the "302"-page I described before.

Sorry, forgot that:
In the first case (redirecting to 1.3.6:80) no entry in error_log and
access_log. In rewrite_log (level 9):

192.168.130.10 - - [27/Nov/2001:18:09:47 +0100]

[server/sid#f22e0][rid#11dd70/initial/redir#1] (1) redirect to
http://server.ourdomain.com:80/index.html [REDIRECT/302]

In the second case (redirecting to 1.3.22:81) no entry in error_log,
entry in access_log:

192.168.130.10 - - [27/Nov/2001:18:17:10 +0100] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 302 275
192.168.130.10 - - [27/Nov/2001:18:17:10 +0100] "GET /index.html
HTTP/1.0" 302 284

in rewrite_log:

192.168.130.10 - - [27/Nov/2001:18:17:10 +0100]
[server.ourdomain.com/sid#f22e0][rid#11cfe8/initial] (2) init rewrite

192.168.130.10 - - [27/Nov/2001:18:17:10 +0100]
[server.ourdomain.com/sid#f22e0][rid#11cfe8/initial] (2) explicitly
forcing redirect with http://server.ourdomain.com:81/index.html
192.168.130.10 - - [27/Nov/2001:18:17:10 +0100]
[server.ourdomain.com/sid#f22e0][rid#11cfe8/initial] (1) escaping
http://server.ourdomain.com:81/index.html for redirect
192.168.130.10 - - [27/Nov/2001:18:17:10 +0100]
[server.ourdomain.com/sid#f22e0][rid#11cfe8/initial] (1) redirect to
http://server.ourdomain.com:81/index.html [REDIRECT/302]

Both cases were generated with the same request, "http://server:81/".
First request showed me the index.html, the second the "302"-page.

Thanks for your help so far!
