Apache :: Add Abbreviation Of Country In URL Address
May 8, 2014
Apache version > i don't know (i am a godaddy user)
Apache platform > unix
I try to make a change to my current htaccess for now my url looks like> sitename.com/en/filename.ext..I want to get to have an address resembling this:
sitename.com/ca/en/filename.ext (in case the country is Canada and french language)
sitename.com/us/en/filename.ext (in case the country is United State and English language)
sitename.com/eu/en/filename.ext (in case the country is Europe and English language)
sitename.com/en/filename.ext (in case the country is not mentioned and English language)
This might be a very broad question, but do they split up IP Address Groups for each region in countries? I know my country is quite small and all, but I was interested to know if IP addresses can be tracked for regions, more specifically in other countries.
why a client orders a dedicated server from Russia but then they inform us they have transferred the money from Hong Kong bank Telegraphic transfer, different person?
We really do our best to be reasonable but what is the logic behind that?
My customer has an external facing Apache server that is acting as a reverse proxy to two internal applications. They have:
- external addresses for each app which resolve to different ip addresses, so app1.their_domain.com and app2.their_domain.com resolve to 77.3.170.10 and 77.3.170.11 respectively. - the Apache server has two network interfaces with ip addresses 192.168.10.10 and 192.168.10.11 - the external ip addresses resolve to the above internal addresses - the firewall between the Apache server and the internal app servers is configured to allow traffic from 192.168.10.10 to reach app_server1, and traffic from 192.168.10.11 to reach app_server2, both using port 7777.
I have configured a virtual host in httpd.conf for each ip, i.e.
This works fine in that the external address are being routed to the correct application, however the firewall is blocking requests to the second app as it appears the requests are coming from the Apache servers 'primary' ip address 192.168.10.10 instead of 192.168.10.11.
Is it possible to send requests using the ip address from the relevant VirtualHost?
I am having the hardest time binding my domain name to my Apache server. If I use the IP address, I can access it just fine even outside of my network. But when I try to bind my domain name to that exact same IP address it just does not work.
I am running Apache 2.0.64 on Windows 8 and my domain name is registered at Name.com. I have contacted them to and I am awaiting a response but they are really backlogged right now and I thought it wouldn't hurt to post here as well. Besides, I thought it might have something to do with my Apache config file anyways and I wanted to make sure.
Pretty new to Apache and recently enabled teh Apache Server Status module.
A column is confusing me, after CONN/CHILD/SLOT is CLIENT, most of the addresses in this column are my own local addresses but I have a few which I don't recognise and show up on whois.net as follows;
203.188.201.201 = Yahoo Mail 199.87.232.177 = No Result 141.44.51.95 = Query terms are ambiguous 58.218.204.102 = CHINANET-JS
I have a VPS and run few websites. I am not good in Apache and Linux. I just got a dedicated IP address for one of my domains. I like that the website opens just by typing the IP address in the address bar of the browser. How can I activate that?
We are using 4 apache and 8 weblogic.When little high load is coming on application (say 300 users), we are getting non-http response code (Non HTTP response code: org.apache.http.conn.HttpHostConnectException).And also all the load is generated from one single IP address.And we are using apache 2.2.
I'm using Concrete5 CMS to create a website. This CMS creates/manages all its webpages in a mySQL database. Thus, there is no physical folder associated with each webpage, so I can't simply create an .htaccess file and place it in the directory tree in the right sub-folder to restrict access for that sub-folder and all folders it contains.
I have one .htaccess file located at the root level (e.g top-level folder for the website).
QUESTION 1: I need place in this top-level .htaccess file to (1) restrict access to only two specific IP addresses that I can specify (blocking access to all other IP addresses), and (2) specify the URL addresses that I wish to apply this rule to?
I created certificate and it appears to be working but I am always getting a cert error about a mismatched address. I have checked my settings and the certificate and host names match. It doesn't make sense. I have looked online at different forums and support sites but nothing has worked. The only thing I can think to do is to get a new cert. This cert is for an internal site only...
I'm currently struggling with an issue on our Apache 2.2.24 home-rolled installation on an OEL 6.2 x64 linux server that front-ends for a Glassfish cluster via proxypass.The httpd.conf manages 4 virtual hosts with each virtual host entry rewriting to HTTPS.
Anyone trying to access the HTTP address redirects to HTTPS just fine.The issue is that anyone using the HTTPS address gets redirected to the Document Root defined in Apache instead of being proxypassed to Glassfish.
I had set up a dummy DocumentRoot with a simple index.html meta redirect and what happens is that anyone directly accessing HTTPS will hit the index.html file which redirects to the the https site. At this point it simply loops to infinity.
I've just finally got fed up with all the people from Israel trying to hack into my servers. Of course they're always auto-banned, but getting several attempts per day emailed to me it gets old...so I banned the entire country.
Anyone else ban entire countries from their servers?
I'm trying to prevent unnecessary GET requests from being processed by my CMS that originate from mutating IP address locations. This is sucking up server resources when the request is processed by the app, and so if possible, I'd like to block them with HTACCESS so that the request is stopped before anything is intensively-processed.
What happens is that an IP address will make a GET request for, say, "blah/test" or "blah/test2" but nothing else (no site assets like images or CSS/JavaScript files or even other pages). After this request, another IP address will then make an equivalent kind of request, and so on, and so on... All of them have similar if not identical user agent strings but they're always worthless requests that do nothing but waste CPU and RAM. I'm assuming it's just some idiotic SPAM bot because of this.
I am very new to web design and have been messing around making mock sites and would like to get some of them live so I can get experience with using host's and get some reviews on my basic designs.
I have just relocated to New Zealand and it seems pretty steep on pricing for hosting companies so can I use hosting companies outside of NZ.
What would be the disadvantages if any?
I am not after anything special like loads of bandwidth or storage.
I had a few sites hacked today. I'm using phpbb (all updates) and, apparently, the only thing they did was to drop the database and replace it with one featuring a single post "advertising" their hacker group. I tried bringing everything back on-line, but they would just attack again and take it down quickly... I'm thinking it's probably just some script kiddies.
They announce themselves as "turkish hackers". Browsing around for their message, I found they attacked quite a few sites. What I was thinking, to help preventing this from happening again, is to ban all visitors from Turkey (none of these sites has a need for them, as they're aimed at a local audience).
Can I do this simply by using "deny from .tr" in htaccess? Or are there any more steps to be taken?
i know that i.e. Hetzner gives you PA Space with your own Netname ("netname:" field) (maybe also own Adress) but they dont allow to change the "country:" field, and it stays "DE"
I would like to have a block of 8/16/32 IPs with own "Netname:" field, and own "Country:" field (or as Countrycode "CN", "HK", "AG", "BS" or "KY")
Could Provide P.O. Boxes in all that countrys if needed.
The Server behind it does not really matter, location should be not Germany and not USA (cant comply with some Laws in this 2 Countrys) - something like 1Ghz CPU, 80Gb HDD, 512Mb Ram is enough - 100Mbit (or 10Mbit Burstable) with ~350Gb Traffic.
I am in the process of setting up a VPN server for a client who lives in a Middle Eastern country.
He will be using the VPN for all his internet surfing, email access, etc. (So the VPN will be his internet gateway. His local ISP connection will only be used to make the VPN connection.)
The majority of his internet surfing through the VPN will be to US websites.
Where is the best place to locate the VPN server? I have two datacenters available to choose from: USA or UK
I have experianced a number of attacks all from a specific country.
I would like to completely block access to all users from that country.
I realize that this is not fool proof because people from that country could still use a proxy.
I also realize that people in that country that are not hackers would not be able to access my web site but for the time being I still want to put this in place.
I use Linux / Cpanel / Apache. I have iptables installed.
Is there any way I can block all access to people from the problem country?
setting up another website which will have hopefully both a uk and us audience. I am looking at going with godaddy as they offer a domain extension I want, which no uk service seems to offer. Is there any disadvantages to this, will it operate slower?
I want to stop users from country X from accessing my website, I know I can ban people's IPs but I dont know if it is possible to ban certain geographical area and if so, I haven't got a clue about how to do it.
I got a list of IPs from the country i want to block from blockacountry.com and i added them to my .htaccess as I have no access to PF or IP tables firewall.
I am concerned about the server load if I get too many requests from that country to access the webpage, I have been told of a better solution, blocking someone based on the browser language they use, for example for China that is "zh-CN" but I don't know how to implement this and I have not been able to find it through Google, help with this appreciated.
Second thing, anyone knows what happens when someone attempts to access a webpage from a blocked IP? Do they get a "Page not found" or "your IP is blacklisted" message?
If I block by browser language it would be good if the blocking message does not tell the user about this
(Notice that I am aware that blocking by browser language is not a perfect solution).
