[mapserver-users] transitioning between mapservers - port forwarding

[Langlois, Dominique]

Hi,

We are currently serving many WMS and WFS services through a single IP address. To do so, we use Apache mod_rewrite module which permit to set some redirection based on rules in the configuration file. Google for 'Apache mod_rewrite' to find how to set rules.

Regards.

Subject: [mapserver-users] transitioning between mapservers - port forwarding

Hello,

I would like to see if I can run both MS4W 3.0 beta 7 (mapserver 5) and MS4W 3.x (mapserver 6).


Background:
Currently I am using an older version of MS4W to host our GeoMOOSE 2.2 applications, which are not compatible with the newer versions of MS4W.  In addition to using the older MS4W application, I would also like to add a new version of MS4W.  This way I can transition to GeoMOOSE 2.6 (which runs on the newer MS4W distribution), and take advantage of MapCache without having to completely change all the applications at once.  The server I have has two partitions and by renaming the service in Apache-install.bat I can run both both the old MS4W applications and the new MS4W applications.

Questions:
Has anyone else done anything similar to this? 
Is there a way to only use one IP address or port?  For example could I make:   http://mysite/myOldApp go to the old version of MS4W and http://mysite/myNewApp go to the new version of MS4W?

Thanks for any ideas
