I'd like to permanently redirect my pages to https + www.
I'm using the code below but it doesn't work when I enter https://example.com. It does nothing and displays the page without adding the www.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
There is no problem with the given redirect rule. It seems problem is that OP is executing shown rule from <VirtualHost *:80> section. Those rules will obviously won't fire if request is https://. OP can do one of the two thing to fix the problem:
Keep same redirect rule in <VirtualHost *:443> section as well - OR
Keep rule in a common place like .htaccess
Try it like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
Make sure to clear your cache before testing this.

I wrote an .htaccess script that appears to work. However I'm new to Apache and often times I find out later that something I put together should have been constructed differently or with better semantics.
The goal of my code is to make sure that www and HTTPS are always present in the url. I'm using 302 for testing purposes. Put simply is this code jacked up? Is there something painfully obvious that I should change?
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule .* https://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=302,L]
</IfModule>
To enforce https and www , you can use this :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?(.+)$
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%2%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,L,R]
This will redirect http://example.com or https://example.com to https://www.example.com
I start reading about a similar topic at this page .htaccess - how to force "www." in a generic way? and the solution was not, well almost what I am looking to do.
The problem : I need the user to be on HTTPS and on WWW to make my application working properly. But if some one click on a html link like:
www.example.com
The user will fall on my website with this :
https://www.www.example.com/
Here is my current .htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://www.%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
Is there any way to detect that the user already entered the WWW or is there a best practice to get the result I am looking for?
Thank you.
You are getting this behavior because http -> https rule is adding www\. in target URL without checking if URL is already starting with www.
You should replace both of your rules with this single rule and as a bonus avoid multiple redirects:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
I have two domains example.com and example.net using the same .htaccess file in public_html directory. I want any valid url like example.net/valid-url to redirect to example.com/valid-url.
I tried the following:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.net$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.net$
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
However the redirect is happening (with above code) to example.com not,
example.com/valid-url.
Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Try this rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.net$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
Make sure to clear your browser cache before testing this.
I've read through many of the similar requests such as:
Apache rewrite rule - prevent rewritten URL appearing in browser URL bar
But I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, any help would be much appreciated.
I'm using codeigniter 3 and it's root is at the following location:
https://example.com/api/v1.0
I've set up a basic route and all is working fine with Codeigniter E.g. If I navigate to:
/api/v1.0/index.php/pages/view/about
the appropriate page appears so all seams well. What I really want is for the URL to get rewritten so that when I enter:
/api/v1.0/pages/view/about
it goes to the same page. I've added a htaccess file that rewrites the rule and all works as expected:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /api/v1.0/
RewriteCond $1 !^(index.php|resources|robots.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
The problem is, when I enter the the url:
/api/v1.0/pages/view/about
it goes to the correct page, but the browser URL gets updated to:
/api/v1.0/index.php/pages/view/about
My question is, how can I stop the browser URL from being updated?
Update - my web servers site behind an AWS ELB that acts as the https end point. I have the following in the httpd.conf to ensure that any non 'www' prefixed URLS and any http calls are redirected to https://www
<VirtualHost *:80>
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "http"
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/_hostmanager/
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^test\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^signup\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/_hostmanager/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
</VirtualHost>
I don't think this rule is causing an issue as its not being invoked, I'm providing the correct prefix and protocol.
Many thanks in advance,
Rob
Check that index.php isn't set for $config['index_page'].
If it is change it to:
$config['index_page'] = '';
OK, after much testing it would appear that my virtual host settings in httpd.conf were causing the issue. If I removed these rules and then the local .htaccess rules worked exactly as expected.
I've removed the local .htaccess rules and added the following to rule to httpd.conf:
RewriteRule ^/api/v1\.0/([A-Za-z0-9-/]+)/?$ /api/v1.0/index\.php/$1 [NC,L,QSA] # Process API Call
My Virtual Host section now looks like this:
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "http"
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/_hostmanager/
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^test\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^signup\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/_hostmanager/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^/api/v1\.0/([A-Za-z0-9-/]+)/?$ /api/v1.0/index\.php/$1 [NC,L,QSA] # Process API Call
So now calls to:
/api/v1.0/some/directory
Will get rewritten to this:
/api/v1.0/index.php/some/directory
And this happens without redirecting the browser or affecting the browser URL. What I don't understand is why this is not entering into an infinite loop as I have no rewrite precondition to check for calls to the /api/v1.0/index.php/*
Anybody know why this is no entering into an infinite loop?
I have several web sites and using the same mod_rewrite. I like to add two additional conditions to it and based on many of solutions that I have found on here and none seem to be working.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
I have my sites working with the following solution.
domain.com forwards to www.domain.com
I like to add the following two conditions to my conditions above.
Remove trailing slashes. If I have www.domain.com/ it does remove
that trailing slash, unfortunately, for some reason if there are
multiple slashes at the end it doesn't www.domain.com//
Removing index.html from www.domain.com/index.html
Making this dynamic is what may be through this off. If I use the suggestion on domain itself, I have not problems. It is once I add http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} where everything goes wonky.
i use this rewrite for redirecting domain.com to www.domain.com. No problems with //
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com$1 [R,L]
#this could work for you (untested)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.\$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}$1 [R,L]
#redirect /index.html to /
RewriteRule ^/index.html / [R=301,L]
