New installation.. new questions..

you can add www and regular just like you did static to the rule set to avoid re-direction.

the problem is that you don't have a logical filesystem, since it's effectively a pointer. you can place a robots file in cdndomain root, but i'm not sure it will ever get tread due to it simply pointing via ln -s to the real file system location, of which, you can't use a robots file on as it will block realdomain

Thanks again!

my rewrite is like that now:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !(^www\.domain\.com$|^m\.domain\.com$|^static\.cdn domain\.com$|^www\.cdndomain\.com$|^\.cdndomain\.c om$)

but everything apart from static.cdndomain.com still redirects to www.domain.com.. I am having hard time understanding the logic behind it but i am getting there.. Thanks for your patience!

You can make
^\.cdndomain\.com$
just
^cdndomain\.com$

you didn't park cdndomain on the real one did you? it should have its own 'account' in httpd.conf, not be an alias.

That's correct, it's not an alias. That's what my httpd.conf file has for this domain:

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>
ServerName static.cdndomain.com
DocumentRoot /home/cdndomain/public_html
ErrorLog /home/cdndomain/logs/error_log
CustomLog /home/cdndomain/logs/access_log combined
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/cdndomain/cgi-bin/
DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php index.php4 index.php5
<Directory /home/cdndomain/public_html>
Options -Indexes IncludesNOEXEC FollowSymLinks
allow from all
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /home/cdndomain/cgi-bin>
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

everything looks correct. Keep playing with it... try using the live http headers plugin to trace it.

Thanks again Brian! I found the problem, I had to setup the cdndomain.com and not just the static. in order to make it work..

I am sure I ll come back soon with more questions! Thanks again!

Hi again,

I have a problem and I am not too sure where to look. I installed xCache and vBseo in the same time so it can be any of them.

So when the users do a search, they get: Showing results 1 to 25 of 91
Search took 0.03 seconds and 4 pages have appeared. Though if you click on 4th you are going to http://www.domain.com/search/result-2614435/index4.html but you are actually on 3rd page..

Just an update to confirm that it is the custom rewrites that creates the problem. I temporarily disabled them and it works fine now. These are the rules I use:

Code:

//'^search\.php$' => 'search/[NF]'
//'^search\.php\?searchid=(\d+)$' => 'search/result-$1/'
//'^search\.php\?searchid=(\d+)&pp=25$' => 'search/result-$1/'
//'^search\.php\?searchid=(\d+)&pp=.*?&page=(\d+)$' => 'search/result-$1/index$2.html'
//'search\.php\?do=getnew&contenttype=vBForum_Post$' => 'search/new/[NF]'
//'search\.php\?do=getnew$' => 'search/new/[NF]'
//'search\.php\?do=getdaily&contenttype=vBForum_Post$' => 'search/today/[NF]'
//'search\.php\?do=getdaily$' => 'search/today/[NF]'
//'^search\.php\?do=process$' => 'search/process/'

Any ideas?

Oops another message sorry but I think I found the problem.. the pp was 25.. although I have 40.. I ll try that and come back to you

If you use a custom pagination in your profile, your page 3 will not be the stock page3, and a redirect will take place if a postid/etc is included in the url.

Yeah i figured it out thanks

Now I have another problem, the album rewrite is breaking up my pictures, especially when users are using non english characters (that exist as well in Character Replacements) or spaces.

Add [album_id] into your rewrites by going into the advanced screen and copying the current selected item into the custom block and add in the -[album_id] after the album title.

Cheers, that worked.

Now I have another problem with my attachments, some random attachments are not opening, but if I disable rewrite still not opening.. so I don't think that's your problem

Likely not. Try rebuilding them with the Maintenance tool from vb admin.

It's me again

Now that I have moved my static content to my cdn domain the Image Size Attributes stopped working. In order to make it work again do I need to put the full url that points to the files in vbseo panel?

Thanks!
