How to redirect a page without rewrite URL?

Question

I have domain site.com and there is subdomain sub.site.com Once you open sub.site.com you have to see site.com/sub/ without URL formatting. How to do this?

Answer 1

You can create a virtual host, or vhost, to do so. There you can easily define a Server Alias, that transparently redirects to your directory.

For example, if your apache configuration looks like this:

<VirtualHost 13.37.13.37>
DocumentRoot /www/where/ever/your/webroot/is
ServerName www.example.net
</VirtualHost> 

And now you add a second Virtual Host:

<VirtualHost 13.37.13.37>
DocumentRoot /www/where/the/other/site/is
ServerName example.net
ServerAlias othersite.example.net
</VirtualHost>
