Today I got an interesting task. I had to upload some pdf documents to a site.
|
||
The domain is ours, but we don’t have access to the application server that is
|
||
hosting the page yet. Until we get it in our hands, I did a trick.
|
||
|
||
I enabled `mod_rewrite`, `mod_proxy` and `mod_proxy_http`, then added the following
|
||
lines to my apache config:
|
||
|
||
{% gist 47680bfa44eb29708f20 redirect-non-existing.conf %}
|
||
|
||
I’m not totally sure it’s actually secure, but it works for now.
