Scalped By Apache !

One of those simple things that turns out to be a BFD. I've got to learn a new regimen or else just use WSGI/DocRoot configurations ... using ports other than 80 for HTTP is something you're not supposed to want to do.

Damn all SRV records !

Apache With Proxy Server

<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80>

Probably over-complicated

There are two ways to do this. You could use the VirtualHost section of your httpd.conf or
you could do it in your .htaccess. (assuming that the subdomains resolve to the same IP as your webserver)

In httpd.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName subsonic.mydomain.com
    redirect / http://mydomain.com:4040/
</VirtualHost>

In .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^subsonic\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mydomain.com:4040/$1 [R=301]

<VirtualHost *:80> 
  ProxyPreserveHost On
  ProxyRequests Off
  ServerName www.example.com
  ServerAlias example.com
  ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/example/
  ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/example/
</VirtualHost>

    <VirtualHost IP_ADDR:80>

      ProxyPass        / http://localhost:10000/
      ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:10000/

    </VirtualHost>

Apache version issues ?

http://forum.slicehost.com/index.php?p=/discussion/4110/redirecthide-port-number-in-url/p1

Some of these instructions use both proxy_mod and rewrite_mod to get a subdomain on a port ... what a kludge.

http://thatextramile.be/blog/2012/01/hosting-a-node-js-site-through-apache/

You'll first need to install mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http. After that, the configuration to make it work is quite easy:

<VirtualHost 109.74.199.47:80>
    ServerAdmin davy.brion@thatextramile.be
    ServerName thatextramile.be
    ServerAlias www.thatextramile.be
 
    ProxyRequests off
 
    <Proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
    </Proxy>
 
    <Location />
        ProxyPass http://localhost:3000/
        ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:3000/
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

Aha ! ProxyPassReverse will take care of mapping the port back to the subdomain. Maybe it's not so bad after all. Good clear instructions ... a rare thing.

Apache: The Bottom Line

There's no way all this stuff will work on Windows, even if I have the time and patience to fiddle with it. Would it be easier to uninstall Servers#Apache and use Servers#Lighttpd or some other server ?

Or just accept another asymmetry and submit to The Apache Way ? -> http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracModWSGI

Re-deploy with mod_WSGI, save myself a headache, why not !

See TracModWSGI or in a pinch TracCgi
