Setting up Dynamic Map with apache2 under Debian

This page assumes:

• You have apache2 installed.
• Your www-root directory to be: /srv/http/.
• You could access your Dynmap-map succesfully through http://localhost:8123/.

This example shows how to put dynmap on your apache2 webserver in http://mywebserver/dynmap/.

• To start, create the directory /srv/http/dynmap/.
• Copy the contents of the web directory found in the zip to /srv/http/dynmap/.

First, we need to enable the modules we need. Type in bash:

    sudo a2enmod rewrite proxy_http

Next, we must 'redirect' /dynmap/up/ and /dynmap/standalone/ to dynmap's internal webserver. To do this, make sure you have the following at the end of /etc/apache2/sites-available/default:

    ...
        Alias /dynmap/tiles /opt/minecraft_server/plugins/dynmap/web/tiles/
    
        RewriteEngine on
        RewriteRule /dynmap/up/(.*) http://localhost:8123/up/$1 [P,L]
        RewriteRule /dynmap/standalone/(.*) http://localhost:8123/standalone/$1 [P,L]
    </VirtualHost>
    
    <Directory /opt/minecraft_server/plugins/dynmap/web/tiles/>
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
    
    <Proxy http://localhost:8123/*>
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
    </Proxy>

Restart apache2 (sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart).

It should now display online players on http://mywebserver/dynmap/, keeping them up-to-date.
