RewriteRule和Header集Expires：如何

Question

I'm using rewrite rules to create a /fr /en on my website and does folder don't exist, therefore if I try to use

<Directory /fr>
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 day"
</Directory> 

Apache complain because the folder does not exist, can't find a way to do it in the http.conf

If I use

Header set Expires "access plus 1 day"

in the .htaccess, can see the header showing

Expires: access plus 1 day  

instead of the date + 1 day, if i remove it I can see

Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT

Also if I use

ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 day"

It does not work...

Can you please tell how to get this right?

Also I believe that Safari (and only safari) keep on reloading the page every minutes because of that, is that correct or just another issue?

Thx for your help!

Answer 1

Directory instructions are working on real filesystem paths. So a Directory setting should looks like :

<Directory /var/www/foo/bar/fr >
    (...)
</Directory>

Instead, if you prefer working with url path you must use Location directives:

<Location /fr >
    (...)
</Location>

This should at least fix your inexistents directories problems (if I understand your first sentence, which is quite strange)
