Hi Heddi, I was very pleased to find your articles around OpenBSD. I have been a fan since 2001 (I saw the birth of PF), using it for most of my personal projects. Your article gave me the spin to set up my own web server, as I wouldn't trust anything else than OBSD in the wild. That's also the reason why I insist on using httpd.
So please, keep writing about it.
Now my question: I have set up httpd exactly as in your article, minus the obvious adaptations. Drupal works fine except for url aliases. I am using OBSD 6.6 and Drupal 8.8.5.
To my limited understanding, the issue is with the location match, not capturing properly. I also suspect that something of the original config may have gone lost with escaping. I have tried to fiddle with the lua pattern to no avail. Do you have the same issue?
I'm sorrry I don't use URL aliases. Therefore, yours is the first to me.
Then I tried to test to create a Drupal alias: /test/3 (virtual path) -> / (real path). And I ran 2 cases:
So, how about using ?q=... query params?
Alternatively, If you want to configure it via httpd.conf, "request rewrite" might be available. I have met a similar issue in configuring Directus.
Besides, I'm happy to get such a chance to know better about Drupal, because I haven't used it well enough 😊
Well, I'm also pleased to get a message from OBSD earlier-users like you. Thank you, again.

That's great !
I'm making efforts to get familiar with PF and relayd... 😅
