Re: Apache AliasMatch

Hi Kevin,

Or
ScriptAliasMatch (^/jonspgm$) /QSYS.LIB/JONS.LIB/$1.PGM

I'm not sure if it matters, but being the perfectionist that I am... Seems to me that your second example will repeat the / character. The leading slash in /jonspgm will be copied to the result, thus translating from to /QSYS.LIB/JONS.LIB//jonspgm.PGM

A solution would be to change the parenthesis so they don't include the slash, like this:

ScriptAliasMatch ^/(jonspgm)$ /QSYS.LIB/JONS.LIB/$1.PGM

Or perhaps (uglier):

ScriptAliasMatch (^/jonspgm$) /QSYS.LIB/JONS.LIB$1.PGM

But, since "jonspgm" is hard-coded, I'm not sure that there's any benefit to using a $1 in the syntax at all.... that brings us back to your first syntax (which is exactly what I'd use.)
