Setting up Apache HTTPD
Version 4.1 by Thomas Mortagne on 2022/06/01
Example inpired from https://www.myxwiki.org (with only the important parts):
- any acces to port 80 redirect to port 443
- proxy the port 443 to the port 80
- redirect / access to /xwiki/
- make sure XWiki have enough information to know what is the source URL
- make sure that special characters like / and + are allowed
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mydomain.com
ServerAlias *.mydomain.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName mydomain.com
ServerAlias *.mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/xwiki-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/xwiki-access.log combined
RedirectMatch ^/$ /xwiki/
<Location /xwiki>
Order Deny,Allow
Satisfy Any
