Apache - .HTACCESS applies previous conditions to current rewrite url - apache

My .htaccess applies RewriteCond's from previous RewriteRule's to the current RewriteRule.
For example example.com/acme gets redirected to http://www.example.com/index.php?url=acme.
Why would this configuration ever redirect to index.php? The index.php's RewriteRule isn't even a R=301. And the RewriteCond's that makes exceptions when the request_uri contains the string acme shouldn't even be applying themselves to this RewriteRule since they have their own RewriteRule.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(txt) [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} robots\.txt
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !acme
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(txt) [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} robots\.txt
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=off
RewriteRule ^ http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]

It seems lke it executed 2 rewrite rules at the same time. Adding the [END] flag fixed the issue.

Using htaccess to redirect all pages but one to another domain

My htaccess is as follows:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.es$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.es$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/es [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?section=$1 [QSA,L]
Basically it's function is to redirect all domain alias (i.e. domain.mobi) to domain.com, except domain.es, that will be redirected to domain.com/es. Then there's another rewriterule that appends the query string (so in the background, domain.com/test becomes domain.com/index.php?section=test)
My problem is that now I need to exclude a url (www.domain.es/landing) from the redirection (so it stays in domain.es), and I can't make it work. I've tried adding this condition to the first two rules to exclude the page:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/landing$
but then it goes to www.domain.com/es?section=landing (not only still redirects to domain.com; the query string appears in the browser bar). Any ideas?
You can use these rules:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.es$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/landing[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/es/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/landing[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?section=$1 [QSA,L]

HTACCESS - Allow access to folders

This is my current htaccess.
Site
|.htaccess
|--/folder-1
|--/folder-2
Now my root htaccess is as follows:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ /public/ [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/public/
RewriteRule ^(.*) /public/$1 [L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
I want users to access all files and folders inside folder 1 and folder 2. How that can be done?
Several changes: do your domain redirect first (note the subtle changes);
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+) [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://%1/$0 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(?!(?:folder-1|folder-2)(?:$|/)|public/(?:index\.php)?$).* public/$0 [L]
This incorporates the folders you're excluding from rewriting into the main rule, so should be more efficient. It looks ugly since it starts with a negative look-ahead assertion (?! and the rest of the groups begin with (?: so they are non-capturing.
Do you really need a single domain? If so, it should be checked on all requests. If not, drop the first RewriteCond of the second RewriteRule.
if your default document is not index.php, change it in the negative look-ahead assertion of the second RewriteRule.

Redirect to new url except for on page with existing expression engine redirect

I have the following redirects in the .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /content [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) http://subdomain.domain1.co.uk/index.php/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/content$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain2.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
The first redierect needs to be there for the expression engine to work properly. Visit to
subdomain.domain1.co.uk/content matches the rule but I end up in the indefinite redirect loop. Can anybody help ?
Thanks,
EDIT: 2nd and 3rd rule may actually be incorrect. What I want it to do is to redirect anything from http://subdomain.domain1.co.uk/$1 to http://www.domain2.co.uk/$1 expect for http://subdomain.domain1.co.uk/content and http://subdomain.domain1.co.uk/content/*
Keep your rules like this:
RewriteEngine on
# redirect everything except content/? to www.domain2.co.uk
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?subdomain\.domain1\.co\.uk$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\s/content/?[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.domain2.co.uk%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]

Mod_rewrite not redirecting all cases correctly

I always seem to have trouble with this and no matter what I try I can't get all cases to redirect correctly.
I currently have
example.com/anything
correctly redirects to
example.com/track.php?memb=anything
and basically any url with a filetype at the end should ignore all redirects. I also have a subdomain rule at the top which I think is implemented correctly to not interfere with what I am trying to add. All of this is currently working correctly with the following code:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpg|png|css|js|php)? [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/([^/]+)/? [NC]
RewriteRule .* track.php?memb=%1 [L,E=END]
I need to add the following rule:
example.com/c/whatever
needs to redirect to
example.com/page2.php?c=whatever
After many attempts and modifications of some of the current rules, I can't seem to get it working but I think I'm close with
RewriteRule ^c/(.*)$ page2.php?c=$1 [L,E=END]
RewriteCond is only valid for the next RewriteRule. Also,
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpg|png|css|js|php)? [NC]
will match anything with a . in the name. Since you have a ? at the end, it won't matter if the extension has a valid name or not.
Try this:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpg|png|css|js|php)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^c/([^/]+)/? page2.php?c=$1 [L,E=END]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpg|png|css|js|php)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/? track.php?memb=$1 [L,E=END]

Force HTTPS on certain URLs and force HTTP for all others

I have a client project where I need to force HTTPS for a certain folder and force HTTP for all others. I can sucessfully enforce HTTPS for the folder I desire but then all links back to the rest of the site end up being through HTTPS. I'd like to have a rule which forces requests for anything 'not' in the secure folder to be forced back to HTTP. Here's what I have so far:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(my) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NC,R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1
'my' is the name of the folder that I need to force HTTPS for.
Any ideas?
Update: I also tried:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
# Force HTTPS for /my
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(my) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NC,R=301,L]
# Force HTTP for anything which isn't /my
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
RewriteRule !^my http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NC,R=301,L]
# Remove index.php from URLs
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1
But instead of requests for /my being forced through HTTPS they now just resolve to http://www.example.com/index.php/my
:?
Ah, of course. The problem lies in the fact that your rewrite ruleset will be reprocessed after it is transformed to index.php following the initial redirect. Using what you currently have, you need to additionally condition the redirections to make sure they don't get applied after the rewrite to /index.php/my.
Something like the following should do:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
# Force HTTPS for /my
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\s/my [NC]
RewriteRule ^(my) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NC,R=301,L]
# Force HTTP for anything which isn't /my
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !^[A-Z]+\s/my [NC]
RewriteRule !^my http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NC,R=301,L]
# Remove index.php from URLs
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1
Give the following a try, should work for you:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/my
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/my
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
This is something that works from an old client website and could be adaptable for your purposes:
#If https off and in the cart dir
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =off [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/cart/(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/cart/%1 [R=301,L]
#If https on and not in cart dir
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/cart [NC]
#Above line actually used to read RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/cart|media|images|thumbs|css|js [NC]
#to allow js/css/images to be served so there were no mixed ssl messages popping up to visitors
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
Replacing cart with my perhaps
Just invert the conditions:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
RewriteRule !^my http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [NC,R=301,L]
