Apps in /var/www/html 404 error

[luschache]

After upgrading to Custombuild 2.0 my apps like PHPMyAdmin and roundcube cannot be found anymore (404). My options.conf contains:

use_hostname_for_alias=yes
redirect_host=secure.host.com
redirect_host_https=yes

My conf/extra/httpd-alias.conf is:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/config/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/config$ [OR]
RewriteRule ^/config(.*) https://secure.host.com/redirect.php$1

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/roundcube/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/roundcube$ [OR]
RewriteRule ^/roundcube(.*) https://secure.host.com/roundcube$1

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/webmail/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/webmail$ [OR]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/pma$ [OR]

Though, to get is work, it should be:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/config/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/config$ [OR]
RewriteRule ^/config(.*) https://secure.host.com/redirect.php$1

RewriteRule ^/roundcube(.*) https://secure.host.com/roundcube$1

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/webmail/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/webmail$ [OR]
RewriteRule ^/webmail(.*) https://secure.host.com/webmail$1

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/phpMyAdmin/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/phpMyAdmin$ [OR]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/phpmyadmin/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/phpmyadmin$ [OR]
RewriteRule ^/phpmyadmin(.*) https://secure.host.com/phpMyAdmin$1

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secure.host.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/pma/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/pma$ [OR]
RewriteRule ^/pma(.*) https://secure.host.com/phpMyAdmin$1

Alias /config "/var/www/html/redirect.php"
Alias /phpMyAdmin "/var/www/html/phpMyAdmin/"
Alias /phpmyadmin "/var/www/html/phpMyAdmin/"
Alias /pma "/var/www/html/phpMyAdmin/"
Alias /squirrelmail "/var/www/html/squirrelmail/"
Alias /roundcube "/var/www/html/roundcube/"
Alias /webmail "/var/www/html/roundcube/"

I copied this file to /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/custom/ap2/conf/extra/httpd-alias.conf, but after I rewrite my config files, it still gets overwritten. How can I retain my httpd-alias.conf file when rewriting the configfiles?

this topic may help you: http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=46117

The solutions in that topic didn't solve my problem unfortunately

This is a bug in custombuild 2.0, as I have reported it in this reply number 31 http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=46187&page=2&p=238343#post238343 and also confirmed by zEitEr in the next reply. Maybe someone should send a email about this to support at directadmin.com, because it seems they did not notice my report in that reply.

It is not a bug, redirect_host must be a hostname to work. About custom/ap2/conf/extra/httpd-alias.conf - yes, it was a bug, which is now fixed. You can now use this file in custom/ directory, thank you for reporting the issue.

My redirect_host IS a hostname, I just did not want to give my real host name away in the forum. Also I never mentioned custom/ap2/conf/extra/httpd-alias.conf, I do not have a custom directory for this. Please read my reply 31 here http://forum.directadmin.com/showthread.php?t=46187&page=2&p=238343#post238343 (Edit: I see your reply was for user luschache, but please read my reply in the link, I hope what I describe there will be fixed soon. Thanks.)

Thank you, it seems to work almost fine now. Just one small problem:

Alias /webmail "/var/www/html/squirrelmail/"

It would be nice to change it to:

Alias /webmail "/var/www/html/webmail/"

That way, you can use a symlink to set your default webmail. For example, I (and I think many with me) prefer Roundcube above Squirrelmail.

I had the same issue on Debian 7, two alias were missing and the redirections didn't work to squirrelmail & roundcube.
I have followed copied the httpd-alias.conf and then avoid this configuration file to be overwritten during updates i have done:

chattr +i /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-alias.conf

then i have reloaded apache config with a httpd reload
