Apache Adding DocumentRoot to URL when www not used - could be rewrite issue

When I visit www.mysite.com all is well. When I visit mysite.com (without the www) I get redirected to http://www.mysite.com/home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html which gives a 404 error.



/home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html is my DocumentRoot



I believe this problem occurs without rewriting happening... but I could be wrong. I think it my be something with my Apache config. Hopefully someone will spot a common mistake.



My VirtualHost setting was generated by DirectAdmin and is as follows:





    ServerName www.mysite.com
    ServerAlias www.mysite.com mysite.com
    ServerAdmin webmaster@mysite.com
    DocumentRoot /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html
    ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/cgi-bin/
    UseCanonicalName OFF
    
            SuexecUserGroup admin admin
    

    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/domains/mysite.com.bytes bytes
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/domains/mysite.com.log combined
    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/domains/mysite.com.error.log
    
            php_admin_flag safe_mode OFF
            php_admin_flag engine ON
            php_admin_value sendmail_path '/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i -f admin@mysite.com'
            php_admin_value mail.log /home/admin/.php/php-mail.log
            php_admin_value open_basedir /home/admin/:/tmp:/var/tmp:/usr/local/lib/php/





There is a similar VirtualHost for 443 (SSL).



Below is my rewrite log and the DocumentRoot seems to have already been added. The first rewrite rule is the htaccess one on the third line.



[19/Feb/2014:09:45:44 --0800] [www.mysite.com/sid#9ffeb8][rid#d06080/initial] (3) [perdir /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/] add path info postfix: /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/home -> /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/




[19/Feb/2014:09:45:44 --0800] [www.mysite.com/sid#9ffeb8][rid#d06080/initial] (3) [perdir /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/] strip per-dir prefix: /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/ -> home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/



[19/Feb/2014:09:45:44 --0800] [www.mysite.com/sid#9ffeb8][rid#d06080/initial] (3) [perdir /home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/] applying pattern '^\.htaccess$' to uri 'home/admin/domains/mysite.com/public_html/'



I have AllowOverrides set to None. So, no htaccess files are used. I include all the stuff that would normally be in htaccess files like so:
Include /home/admin/webfiles/bightaccess.conf



bightaccess.conf is not in the DocumentRoot directory or a subdirectory.



Here are the rewrite directives in bightaccess.conf





    Options +FollowSymLinks -Indexes -MultiViews
    

    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /

    # Deny access from .htaccess
    RewriteRule ^\.htaccess$ - [F]

    ServerSignature off

    # ensure https is used for certain pages
    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} main_page=(login|login_vendor|password_forgotten|create_account|account|order|address_book|gv_|contact|download^s|report|submit_product|time_out|time_out_vendor|coupon_lookup)
   RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

   # ensure https is used for certain pages
   # used when Simple SEO URL aliases are used
   RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} login|login_vendor|password_forgotten|create-account|account|order|address_book|gv_|contact|download^s|report|submit-product|time_out|time_out_vendor|coupon_lookup
   RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

 # add www to top level domain
 # got this from rewrite manual
 RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com [NC]
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
 RewriteRule ^/?(.*) http://www.mysite.com/$1 [L,R,NE]


 # add www to top level domain
 RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 443
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com [NC]
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
 RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://www.mysite.com/$1 [L,R,NE]


 RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
 RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
 RewriteRule ^/?(.+) index.php/$1 [E=VAR1:$1,QSA,PT,L]





This may be something simple but it's been driving me bonkers. Hopefully someone out there will have seen this before. I can provide any additional info needed!



Thanks!



P.S. I've already looked at similar posts: mod_rewrite adding documentroot to url




but no dice. My statement already points to the DocumentRoot.

linux - iDRAC6 Virtual Media native library cannot be loaded

When attempting to mount Virtual Media on a iDRAC6 IP KVM session I get the following error: I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and: $ javaws -version Java(TM) Web Start 1.6.0_16 $ uname -a Linux aud22419-linux 2.6.28-15-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Mon Aug 31 13:39:06 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ firefox -version Mozilla Firefox 3.0.14, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2009 mozilla.org On Windows + IE it (unsurprisingly) works. I've just gotten off the phone with the Dell tech support and I was told it is known to work on Linux + Firefox, albeit Ubuntu is not supported (by Dell, that is). Has anyone out there managed to mount virtual media in the same scenario?

hp proliant - Smart Array P822 with HBA Mode?

We get an HP DL360 G8 with an Smart Array P822 controller. On that controller will come a HP StorageWorks D2700 . Does anybody know, that it is possible to run the Smart Array P822 in HBA mode? I found only information about the P410i, who can run HBA. If this is not supported, what you think about the LSI 9207-8e controller? Will this fit good in that setup? The Hardware we get is used but all original from HP. The StorageWorks has 25 x 900 GB SAS 10K disks. Because the disks are not new I would like to use only 22 for raid6, and the rest for spare (I need to see if the disk count is optimal or not for zfs). It would be nice if I'm not stick to SAS in future. As OS I would like to install debian stretch with zfs 0.71 as file system and software raid. I have see that hp has an page for debian to. I would like to use hba mode because it is recommend, that zfs know at most as possible about the disk, and I'm independent from the raid controller. For us zfs have many benefits,

apache 2.2 - Server Potentially Compromised -- c99madshell

So, low and behold, a legacy site we've been hosting for a client had a version of FCKEditor that allowed someone to upload the dreaded c99madshell exploit onto our web host. I'm not a big security buff -- frankly I'm just a dev currently responsible for S/A duties due to a loss of personnel. Accordingly, I'd love any help you server-faulters could provide in assessing the damage from the exploit. To give you a bit of information: The file was uploaded into a directory within the webroot, "/_img/fck_uploads/File/". The Apache user and group are restricted such that they can't log in and don't have permissions outside of the directory from which we serve sites. All the files had 770 permissions (user rwx, group rwx, other none) -- something I wanted to fix but was told to hold off on as it wasn't "high priority" (hopefully this changes that). So it seems the hackers could've easily executed the script. Now I wasn't able
