Prettier URLs for Trac
If you would like the url to be like:
http://<yourhostname>/
or (maybe with a subdomain):
http://<subdomain>.<yourhostname>/
this is one way, using mod_rewrite (in Apache):
load the module mod_rewrite, then, place this in your apache config: (if you have subdomain, inside a VirtualHost)
RewriteEngine On <Location "/cgi-bin/trac.cgi"> SetEnv TRAC_ENV "/path/to/trac/env" </Location> ServerName <hostname> Alias /trac "/usr/share/trac/htdocs" ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /path/to/cgi-bin RewriteRule ^/$ /cgi-bin/trac.cgi [R]
Or using ScriptAliasMatch you can redirect all request coming to / without rewriting the URL to the user:
SetEnv TRAC_ENV "/var/to/trac/env" ScriptAliasMatch ^/(.*) /path/to/trac.cgi/$1
Also Note: Another simple way to do this is to put a redirect in /usr/share/trac/htdocs
, such as:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=http://<yourhostname>/cgi-bin/trac.cgi">
