I have a problem with a simple rewrite rule in htaccess ...
My htaccess like this :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^company$ /company.php?lang=en [QSA]
RewriteRule ^company/about$ /article.php?lang=en [QSA]
In local, it works.
But online it doesn't work.
If I go to the URL "www....com/company/about", I have the company.php page ...
Can you explain to me what's my problem ?
Thanks a lot
Have it this way:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
## Unless directory, remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.+)/+$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,NE,L]
RewriteRule ^company$ company.php?lang=en [L,NC,QSA]
RewriteRule ^company/about$ article.php?lang=en [L,QSA,NC]
Important change is disabling option MultiViews. Option MultiViews (see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/content-negotiation.html) is used by Apache's content negotiation module that runs before mod_rewrite and makes Apache server match extensions of files. So if /file is the URL then Apache will serve /file.php (if that exists in your system).
I have also added L (last) and NC (ignore case) flags in your 2 rules.

My web structure looks like this:
public_html/
/images/
/user/
/userimage1.jpg
/userimage2.jpg
/userimage3.jpg
/icons/
/index.php
/user.php
...
I have 2 domains: example.com and images.example.com and I want to use a .htaccess RewriteRule that the images.example.com subdomain leads to the /images/-folder but also to use URLs without the file extension.
My .htaccess looks like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^images\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/images/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /images/$1 [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L]
</IfModule>
Now, https://example.com/user/ works fine, but when I try to open https://images.example.com/user/userimage1.jpg it says that %{REQUEST_URI} is /images/redirect:/images/user.php/userimage1.jpg
Unfortunately, both, the domain and the subdomain have to be installed with public_html as the root folder.
How do I have to adept my .htaccess file so that both URLs, https://example.com/user/ and https://images.example.com/user/userimage1.jpg work fine?
You have a conflict with MultiViews (which you've enabled at the top). The fact that "https://example.com/user/ works fine" (with a trailing slash) is because of MultiViews, not because of your mod_rewrite directives. (The mod_rewrite directives as written would only "work" with /user - no trailing slash.)
When you request https://images.example.com/user/userimage1.jpg, MultiViews triggers an internal subrequest for /user.php/userimage1.jpg (/user.php with additional path-info /userimage1.jpg), but mod_rewrite has also tried to rewrite the request (an internal "redirect") - hence the seemingly malformed rewrite.
Generally, you need to avoid using MultiViews with mod_rewrite rewrites - a common cause of conflict.
Try the following instead:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# Rewrite images subdomain
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^images\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/images/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /images/$1 [L]
# Append .php file extensions
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1 !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1.php [L]
Note that I've included the trailing slash in the RewriteRule pattern and taken this out of the capturing subpattern - this is assuming that the trailing slash is mandatory on your URLs (as in your example).
You don't need the <IfModule> wrapper unless mod_rewrite really is optional? (It's not.)
I was trying to rewrite a URL for making my site SEO friendly, but .htaccess rewrite not seems to work.
My URL is
www.tasteofkochi.com/dine-detail.php?a=150
I need this to look like
www.tasteofkochi.com/sometext/150
I did the simple formula but it's not reflecting, intact nothing happens at all. If I add some junk char in htaccess, site crashes, which means htaccess is working fine. Also I added a formula to remove .php extn, and that too works fine. Only issue is with this one. Can anyone please help me. I enable rewrite in httpd and allow all in directories, still not working.
Below is my .htacces
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteBase /
## hide .php extension
# To externally redirect
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,L,NC]
## To internally redirect
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [L]
RewriteRule ^detail/([0-9]+)/?$ dine-detail.php?a=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php?p=$1 [L,QSA]
We can create pretty urls with .htaccess and php by mainly two files one is .htaccess and another index.php
Example
This is my first post so excuse me if something it's wrong with my way of asking for help. I've been reading other posts related to my problem but none solved it.
My path:
http://example.com/m/page1
http://example.com/m/page2
...
And so on.
I want to change the /m/pageX to /m/#pageX without hardcoding the URL and without using any additional php scripts.
At the first sight, I've accomplished this task by writing the following .htaccess configuration file:
Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^[dm]/(.+)$ /m/#$1 [R=302,NE,L,NC]
## hide .php extension
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+common_([^.]+)\.php[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=302,L,NE]
## To internally forward
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/common_$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ common_$1.php [L]
Is my code the best solution or there is other way to approach my task ?
How can I redirect the /m/pageX to /d/#pageX ?
Thank you
The # sign is not supported in URLs.
This will rewrite /m/pageX to /d/pageX:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^m/(.*) /d/$1 [L,R=301]
This will rewrite /m/pageX to /d/pageX#example, but #example is fix:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^m/(.*) /d/$1#example [NE,L,R=301]
[NE] is necessary to keep the hash (#) sign.
This will rewrite /m/pageX to /d/#pageX:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^m/(.*) /d/#$1 [NE,L,R=301]
Try these rules in your root .htaccess (a level above /m/ and /d/):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^d/(.+)$ /m/#$1 [NE,NC,L,R=302]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /#$1 [NE,L,R=302]
Make sure to remove any /d/.htaccess file.
If for some reason you want to do it from /d/.htaccess then use this rule in /d/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /m/#$1 [NE,NC,L,R=302]
Most are for redirections and removing file extensions or for dynamic urls.
The problem being I can't get a simple static url to rename
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^fileThathasalongname file.html
What I currently have 'mysite.co.uk/fileThathasalongname.html'
What I want is 'mysite.co.uk/file/' while file = file.html
using:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^FileIWantToChange.html FriendlyNamed.html
Using this gives me the error multiple Choices
+++++++++++++++++Edit+++++++++++++++++++++++++
Thought i'd add my final version for people to look at, it may help, the anwser below is correct.
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
DirectorySlash Off
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}/ -d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}.html !-f
RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^FriendlyNamed.html FileIWantToChange.html [L]
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}.html [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mysire.co.uk [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mysite.co.uk/$1 [L,R=301]
all works a charm!
I see multiple issues going on. Firstly the regular expression is matched against the friendly URL the user types in. So you need to swap your friendly url and file path with each other. The friendly or "fake" name goes on the left while the url to redirect to silently goes on the right. Also make sure you've set the directory base to /. Finally it's good to add an [L] to enforce it to be the last rule in case anything in the same file tries to rewrite the path. Due note that other htaccess files lower down, depending on the files location, will also be checked even when enforcing the rule has the last rule. Also junk the options part completely. Give this a try:
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^FriendlyNamed.html FileIWantToChange.html [L]
RewriteRule ^fileThathasalongname.html file.html
I am using a .htaccess file to direct requests for a directory to a custom php file that provides info about that directory (and i want the url displayed by the browser to not change).
Here is the relevant part of the .htaccess file.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /myphp.php?url=%{REQUEST_URI} [QSA,L]
This works well if you go to a directory and include a trailing slash:
http://domain.com/path/
But without the trailing slash, it doesn't
http://domain.com/path
The url (shown in the browser) turns into:
http://localhost:8888/path/?url=/path
I've tried fixing this by adding a rule above this rule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -D
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/ [L]
But that isn't working for me.
How can I get .htaccess to add the trailing slash if it is omitted and then act just as if it had been there?
Thank you
Update:
As requested, here is the whole thing.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
#force trailing slashes on real directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -D
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/ [L]
#use the directory viewer on directories without an index page
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /myphp.php?url=%{REQUEST_URI} [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
This line:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -D
Should have been:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
Don't bother with Mod Rewrite, there is a directive for it
<Location /some/path>
DirectorySlash On
SetHandler some-handler
</Location>
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dir.html
Did you mean
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/ [L]
instead?
I don't know about your approach. I would try something like
RewriteRule ^/(\S+)/?$ /myphp.php?url=$1
I've used this for rewriting before and it works:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com$1
RewriteRule ^/(\S+)/?$ /myphp.php?url=$1
Note that I didn't include the trailing slash in the first rule.
Also, I would advice you not to rely on .htaccess unless absolutely necessary. This is because the server will check for .htaccess files constantly. Using the httpd.conf file instead means apache will only load conditions and rules once. At least I was adviced to do so because of this.
Try this. It will add trailing slash to directory requests which don't have trailing slash.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
#use the directory viewer on directories without an index page
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ /myphp.php?url=$1/ [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
