Proxy sub domains without redirect in .htaccess

Need to redirect requests sent to, for instance, sub domain auto.domain.int to www.domain.int/doc/sample-rates. It is a Zend application so MVC is used. I have the following in my .htaccess conf:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^auto\.domain\.int$
RewriteRule ^.*$ /doc/sample-rates [PT,L]

The thing is, when I put a name of a real file on filesystem as the RewriteRule substitution, lets say 'script.php', it all works well. The content of the script.php file served under the auto.domain.int hostname.

On the other hand when I put an MVC route as the RewriteRule substitution I got 500 error from apache for '/doc/sample-rates' path and 400 error for 'http://www.domain.int/doc/sample-rates' path and several lines in apache log:

Updated: auto.domain.int is an alias for the "main" www.domain.int using ServerAlias.



Thanks,

You must add an additional RewriteCond to prevent an endless rewrite 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^auto\.domain\.int$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/doc/sample-rates$
RewriteRule ^.*$ /doc/sample-rates [PT,L]
