FeedBurner and lighttpd redirects 3
I haven’t been using feedburner to track counts of subscribers to my feed. I didn’t want to tell everyone to switch their feed URL… so I found this solution for handling this transition through Lighttpd.
First, make sure you are requiring the mod_redirect module.
server.modules = ( "mod_rewrite", "mod_fastcgi", "mod_compress", "mod_redirect" )
Then add the following… to your lighty configuration.
$HTTP["useragent"] !~ "FeedBurner" {
url.redirect = (
"/xml/rss/feed.xml" => "http://feeds.feedburner.com/RobbyOnRails",
"/xml/rss20/feed.xml" => "http://feeds.feedburner.com/RobbyOnRails",
"/xml/atom/feed.xml" => "http://feeds.feedburner.com/RobbyOnRails"
)
}
Works like a charm!
Thanks to Damien Tanner for putting me on the right path.

Finally! The Typo team and PLANET ARGON have finished the first phase of the move the Typo project to a new hosting provider. Currently, subversion and the trac have been moved over.
On the PLANET ARGON side… David Gibbons is responsible for making this happen.
If you see any issues, let us know in #typo on irc.freenode.net or in #planetargon.
On a side note… I’m sick and going to go get some rest now.
