I want to redirect a subdomain to a subfolder on my server. I set the A-Record on my DNS Server for blog.domain.com to go to my main server www.domain.com. Using the following htaccess (ubuntu server) - source:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog\.domain\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/blog/$1 [R=301]

Sadly - it's not working. So I've checked apache's access.log and saw, that the first request the web server received was already www.domain.com and not blog.domain.com.

How can I find out the Request-List to check where the requests got wrong?

You have access to VHost config, or server config itself? – hjpotter92 Aug 08 '16 at 10:31
@hjpotter92 yes. Can you point me where I have to look ? Thanks a lot. – aelias Aug 08 '16 at 13:00

You need to specify `ServerAlias` directive. – hjpotter92 Aug 08 '16 at 13:00
@hjpotter92 thanks it helps. – aelias Aug 09 '16 at 12:37
I found that there a permanent "Redirect Directive" in the vhost setting (forget to check this-my bad). After deleting this and adding ServerName and ServerAlias, it works. Thanks @hjpotter92 – aelias Aug 09 '16 at 12:39
