How can I achieve the following:
I have two domains hosted within the same web root path on the server. Usually php manages my HTTP_Hosts dynamically. Related to my question I am using the directory lisings function of apache. Each Request for /peter/ should point effectively to a different directory.
example.com/peter/ -> /peter_example.com/
xamplee.com/peter/ -> /peter_xamplee.com/
The Url should always contain /peter/ but in effect link to the respective real path which I'd like to have hidden.
Thank you!
Finally, after getting into regex and into mode_rewrite the hard way I can come up with the solution all by myself:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Force adding a trailing Slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*[^/])$ /$1/ [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^peter/(.*)$ /peter_example\.com/$1 [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.xamplee\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^peter/(.*)$ /peter_xamplee\.com/$1 [NC,L]

Here is my root path folder content :
/public
/src
/script
/etc
I succesfully managed to rewrite all request to /public folder with following code :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /public/([^\s?]*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,NE,R=302]
RewriteRule ^((?!public/).*)$ public/$1 [L,NC]
My issue is that I need to access /script/script.php from browser, and it is currently returning
NOT FOUND The requested URL was not found on this server.
I tried a lot of things that I founded on stackoverflow but I am really not at ease with Apache 2 .htaccess (but need to use it on a shared hosting)
Anybody know how achieve what I want to do ?
Thanks
Have your .htaccess rules file in following manner. I have added a condition before your last RewriteRule since you want to access script.php so better put a proper condition before last rule.
Also make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /public/([^\s?]*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1? [L,NE,R=302]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\s/script/script\.php/?\??\S*\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^((?!public/).*)$ public/$1 [L,NC]
I've got a tricky question, as far as I see it ;)
Currently, I'm in setup of a dynamic branch release pipeline which already takes a branch during pipeline processing and deploys it on our test server in a reserved folder ("branches").
Our wildcard domain points towards it.
Currently working (in the branches folder):
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1%{REQUEST_URI}/public [L,NC]
But the problem now is, that for example a domain my-new-testbranch-123.domain.com get's the redirect to my-new-testbranch-123.domain.com/my-new-testbranch-123/public/. This is on one side ok (because out data is being found there, but I want to have a proper url such as the app can be routed properly. So I tried to rewrite the url via proxy. But without luck.
Any suggestions?
My goal would be to use the subdomain my-new-testbranch-123.domain.com/ without any additional path in url. The document root is located in my-new-testbranch-123/public/.
I tried via chaining, but both did not work as I thought -.-:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1%{REQUEST_URI}/public [NC,N]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ([^.]+)/public
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ / [P]
and
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1%{REQUEST_URI}/public [NC,C]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ([^.]+)/public
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ / [P]
(with C and N flags)
Best,
Bent
Issue with your original rule is you don't have / after public and since that is an actual directory, Apache is doing a 301 redirect via mod_dir module.
You can use this rule to fix the issue:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1/public%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
Make sure to test in a new browser or via command line curl to avoid old browser cache.
I am migrating an existing website to a Codeigniter one so need a help with re-writing of the urls.
I need to map old URLs with new URLs so that people visiting site from search engine results get redirected to matching new URLs as otherwise they would get page not found errors.
Most of the old urls in this format e.g.
/page.php?id=5 or /page.php?id=180&t=78
/data.php?token=GH45LK
/faqs.php?k=98#section2
Their matching new URLs are
/page/5 or I will be happy with /page?id=5&whatever=xyz too
/data/GH45LK
/faqs/98#section2
This is my current .htaccess of CodeIgniter
# Turning on the rewrite engine is necessary for the following rules and features.
# FollowSymLinks must be enabled for this to work.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
# If you installed CodeIgniter in a subfolder, you will need to
# change the following line to match the subfolder you need.
# http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewritebase
RewriteBase /
# Redirect Trailing Slashes...
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Rewrite "www.example.com -> example.com"
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,
# such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the
# request to the front controller, index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
# Ensure Authorization header is passed along
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>
I tried something like this after RewriteBase / line
RewriteRule ^data\.php\?token=(.*)?$ data/=$1 [R=301,L]
but not sure if I got that right as it's not working.
Could you help me getting it right? Thx
RewriteRule does not work that way: it only test the path part of an URL. For all the other parts (domain, query string, ...), you need to use RewriteCond and the corresponding variable (%{QUERY_STRING}, for the query string/here).
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)id=(\d+)
RewriteRule ^page\.php$ /page/%1 [L,R=permanent]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)token=([^&]+)
RewriteRule ^data\.php$ /data/%1? [L,R=permanent]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)k=(\d+)
RewriteRule ^faqs\.php$ /faqs/%1? [L,R=permanent]
And I think there is an error with RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on as you redirect on http://, not https://, this should result in an infinite loop.
Also note that the anchor (#section2 in your example), is not sent to the server (so it can't be rewritten).
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/$1 [L,R=301]
all works a charm!
I see multiple issues going on. Firstly the regular expression is matched against the friendly URL the user types in. So you need to swap your friendly url and file path with each other. The friendly or "fake" name goes on the left while the url to redirect to silently goes on the right. Also make sure you've set the directory base to /. Finally it's good to add an [L] to enforce it to be the last rule in case anything in the same file tries to rewrite the path. Due note that other htaccess files lower down, depending on the files location, will also be checked even when enforcing the rule has the last rule. Also junk the options part completely. Give this a try:
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^FriendlyNamed.html FileIWantToChange.html [L]
RewriteRule ^fileThathasalongname.html file.html
My URL structure is currently as follows:
http://domain.com/folder/filename (CURRENT)
I want to change this so that I can use the following URL instead:
http://sub.domain.com/filename (NEW)
So accessing the CURRENT or the NEW url, should load the file located at the CURRENT url, but show the NEW url in the address bar. It should only apply to the "/folder/" path.
sub.domain.com is a mirror of domain.com, ie. they share the same file system and root directory.
This is what I have so far:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/folder/?(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://sub.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
This is working, but is missing the rule to remove the "/folder/" from the path. I've tried combining multiple RewriteRule's with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks.
UPDATE: Thanks again #Gerben - I understand what your rules are doing now, but the second one isn't working for me. I suspect because it's conflicting with some other rewrite rules, in particular those of WordPress, which are lower down in my .htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
Because of this the page ends up in a redirect loop, ie (from Chrome):
"The webpage at http://sub.domain.com/folder/index.php has resulted in too many redirects." - while the url I was originally trying to access was, for example, http://sub.domain.com/page
Any ideas?
Try:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(folder/)?(.*)$ http://sub.domain.com/$2 [R=301,L]
This will redirect everything to sub.domain.com, and remove the /folder part of the URI if it is there. If not, it redirects and leaves the URI untouched.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /folder/
RewriteRule ^folder/(.*)$ http://sub.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/folder/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ folder/$1 [L]
# WordPress rules here
edit the second R=301 should not have been there
But this won't work, as wordpress has no way of knowing you want folder. You could add the Proxy flag to the rewrite, but then you need to change the rule above to not redirect on this internal proxy request.
