map a subdomain name to www.domain.com/redmine as redmine.domainname.com on AWS, DYNDNS.ORG

I’ve currently setup

• ubuntu lucid
• lamp
• redmine

I’m testing out on free-tier AWS cloud with dyndns.org dyndns pro with my own domain.com mapped to the public address of AWS cloud E2C instance. This is working when I go www.domain.com/redmine.

However, I want to mapped it as a sub domain redmine.domain.com.
What do I need to do in dyndns.org (I tried adding cname redmine.domain.com to e2c ip but it still doesn’t work)

What else do i need to configure or set?

Below is apache configurations

/etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        DocumentRoot /var/www
        ServerName redmine.domain.com        RewriteEngine on
        RewriteRule   ^/$  /redmine  [R]        <Directory /var/www/redmine>
                RailsBaseURI /redmine
                PassengerResolveSymlinksInDocumentRoot on
        </Directory>        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
        # alert, emerg.
        LogLevel warn        CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Cheers

You shouldn’t need all the rewrite stuff you have in your virtual host. The ‘DocumentRoot’ can be set do use /redmine directory directly and then the ‘RailsBaseURI’ will be /

Simplify it to be…

    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /var/www/redmine
    ServerName redmine.xxx.com            RailsBaseURI /
            PassengerResolveSymlinksInDocumentRoot on    ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log    # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
    # alert, emerg.
    LogLevel warn
