non-www redirection

[Britvax]

DA automatically creates Apache alias for non-www domain:

ServerName www.mydomain.com
ServerAlias www.mydomain.com mydomain.com

After this it's possible to rech the domain and have 2 multiple URL's, i.e. www.mydomain.com and domain.com.

Is it possible to have non-www domain (i.e. mydomain.com) redirect to www.mydomain.com via html redirect or header redirect (code 301)?

And change the templates however you need.

Eg: change:

ServerName www.|DOMAIN|
ServerAlias www.|DOMAIN| |DOMAIN| |SERVER_ALIASES|
to:

ServerName www.|DOMAIN|
ServerAlias |SERVER_ALIASES|
Then at the end of the virtual_hosts.conf file, add a 2nd virtualhost for just |DOMAIN| to handle your redirect.

<VirtualHost |IP|:80>
ServerName |DOMAIN|
Redirect permanent / http://www.|DOMAIN|/
User |USER|
Group |GROUP|
</VirtualHost>
