I am currently in a weird situation in regards to a complex hosting setup [Which cannot be altered].
I got one website hosted called domain.com and i got another domain which links to that same hosting domain.co.uk. But domain.co.uk is redirecting to a folder called /redirect on domain.com. So when you open domain.co.uk, you get the content of domain.com/redirect showing up (which is perfect.).
However, i am getting an internal error on everything after that domain, e.g. domain.co.uk/blah returns an internal error.
I am trying to get every subpages or user entries will redirect to domain.co.uk
This is what i have tried:
RewriteRule ^domain.co.uk/(.*) http://domain.co.uk/ [R=301,L]
or
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^(.*)com.*
RewriteRule .* http://www.domain.co.uk? [L,R=301]
or
RewriteRule ^domain.co.uk/(.*)$ http://domain.co.uk [R=301,NC,L]
Still getting an interal error.
Can someone help?
You can use that:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.co\.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^.+$ http://domain.co.uk/ [R=301,L]

Let me explain my setup here, I have two domains, for the sake of naming them lets call them domain1.com and domain2.com. I have shared hosting that runs cPanel.
Domain1.com is my main domain, and is what I have my hosting account setup using. I have a website hosted at that domain. Domain2.com is set as an add-on domain, and directs to a folder inside of the main domains root. That has it's own website (a Ghost blog).
That all works fine. However the websites hosted at the two domains are quite different and I did not want the subdomain to work, but as far as I can tell add-on domains in cPanel have to have a subdomain in order to be added to the account. The redirect options for the subdomains in cPanel aren't good enough for me, as I wanted anyone accessing say domain1.com/domain2 to get a 404 error as if it didn't exist. So I set up the .htaccess file for domain1.com to look like this:
RewriteEngine On
#301 (permenant) redirects all HTTP requests to HTTPS (SSL)
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
#404 redirects all domain.com/subdomain requests
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?domain1.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/domain2/(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [L,R=404]
#404 redirects all subdomain.domain.com & www.subdomain.domain.com requests
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain2.domain1.co.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain2.domain1.co.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [L,R=404]
This worked perfectly, anyone tryting to access domain2 via domain1 would get a 404 error. But that was before I installed Ghost on domain2 After getting Ghost installed I created an .htaccess file in the domain2 folder inside of domain1's root.I had to put this in it in order for Ghost for to run, as it uses NodeJS:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1:55555555/$1 [P,L]
This also works perfectly except for one aspect. Now all requests to the domain using domain1.com have started working again. For example if I type domain2.domain1.com it will now show me the Ghost blog where as before it was correctly displaying a 404 Not Found error. Why is this and how do I go about rectifying this issue?
As a side note, I also started trying to have all http requests redirect to https. I added the following to the domain1.com htaccess file as I wanted all requests on both domains to redirect to https and I assumed this was necessary:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Now this kind of works. All requests, whatever they are (with or without www for instance), redirect to https, and when I visit it in my browser I get a green the icon indicating it's secured with SSL. Again even with this the previous issue of the domain redirect still doesn't work. But I have another odd issue here.
If I type in my browser simply "domain1.com" (ie without https:// or www. or a combination of the two), it will show just "domain1.com" in the address bar but with the green icon and say it is secured. If however I type in "domain2.com" (again with no https:// or www etc.) it does the same thing except it states it is not secure, suggesting it requested http.
And yet if I type in www.domain2.com or http://domain2.com, that works and I get the secured icon. It is highly puzzling. It seems that the https redirect works on every request except for just "domain2.com" while any other variation (www.domain2.com, http://domain2.com etc) works fine. Any clues? I mean clearly I've done something wrong with the htaccess files but I don't know what, I got most of what I'd put in them from searching sites like Stackexchange, but personally I don't really know anything about them or how they work.
I think I have fixed my own problem here.
I corrected the main htaccess so the https redirect acts like this;
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
From what I can tell it's better to do it this way than the way I had it previously. This in itself didn't fix the problems. What fixed it for me is editing the domain2.com htaccess to look like this:
RewriteEngine on
#Force WWW if it isn't in the request
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC,OR]
#Or include WWW even if it is in the request
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
#Then Force it to use https
RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
#Defines this domain so main htaccess rules for subdomains work
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)?domain2.com$ [NC]
#Proxy for Ghost
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1:55555555/$1 [P,L]
Now everything works. All requests are redirected to https. All requests to the subdomain from the main domain fail with a 404. domain2.com now redirects to https://www.domain2.com or https://domain2.com so it is now always secured by SSL. I'm a novice at htaccess as is probably evident and I've no doubt some or all of this could have unnecessary elements removed or simplified so if anyone wants to correct my syntax so it's less messy I'd appreciate it.
I have 2 domains, the old domain is mjvandco.co.uk and he wants this redirecting to mjvlaw.co.uk. I have both pointing to the same webspace but when I test the URLs using https://httpstatus.io/ I get different results.
I have the following in my htaccess along with other stuff, but this is the redirect content:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mjvlaw\.co\.uk
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.mjvlaw.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
# Remove .html (excluding blog)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/blog(.*)$
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /.*\.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
The only URL that now is not right is this one: http://www.mjvlaw.co.uk/. I used this site
https://mjvlaw.co.uk - goes to https://www.mjvlaw.co.uk
http://mjvlaw.co.uk - goes to https://www.mjvlaw.co.uk
http://www.mjvlaw.co.uk - not work as does not go to https
https://www.mjvlaw.co.uk - fine
However, when I do the same for the old domain it all works as it should and every one below goes too https://www.mjvlaw.co.uk.
https://www.mjvandco.co.uk
https://mjvandco.co.uk
http://mjvandco.co.uk
http://www.mjvandco.co.uk
Am I doing something stupid here? Should I create another webspace and have one folder for the old domain and what for the current one and each having it's own htaccess file?
Thanks. I have done another ticket a month or so back but I am not sure how to change the questions, so I apologise for the similar ticket.
You rule only redirects non-www http URLs to SSL version of your site. To redirect both non-www and www http versions , replace your first rewrite block with the following
RewriteCond ℅{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mjvlaw\.co\.uk
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.mjvlaw.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
Make sure to clear your browser cache before you test this.
The thing is I have one domain in different languages, and I´m not able to do some redirects like this:
I have Spanish http://www.domain.es/inicio
And English http://www.domain.en/inicio
Now, I need to move my page http://www.domain.en/inicio to http://www.domain.en/home
Both domains are using the same .htaccess and I´m not able to do a simple:
Redirect 301 /inicio http://www.domain.en/home
Cause that will redirect the spanish /inicio to /home too.
Also tested
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.en/inicio/$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.en/home/ [R=301,L]
But thats also failing.
Did you try something like this?
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\ /inicio/
RewriteRule ^inicio/(.*) /home/$1 [L,R=301]
You should redirect the content of the folder /inicio to folder /home if I got it right. There is no need to redirect everything since the domain is the same
The request should be GET since the users are accessing your website pages
I have two webs on two different domains. One is on domain.com and the other web is on domain.es.
I am shutting down the web on domain.es but first I have to redirect every request to domain.es to domain.com. This is easy and I had already done it with RewriteCond & RewriteRule, like this:
www.domain.es/ -- redirects to --> www.domain.com/
But I am having a problem now. I also need to redirect one specific page from domain.es to domain.com like this:
www.domain.es/a_page/ -- redirects to --> www.domain.com/another_page/
I am having problems when redirecting with both rules, as when apache detects a request to www.domain.es/a_page it goes to www.domain.com/ and not to the specific page I need.
I have this in my virtualhost:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.es/a_page/
RewriteRule ^(.*)& http://www.domain.com/another_page/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.es/
RewriteRule ^(.*)& http://www.domain.com/ [R=301,L]
I've got the [L] flag so apache would stop processing rules, but this is not working.
Any help would be appreciated.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.es/a_page/
The line above is never going to match anything - you're asking if the host is equal to domain.es/a_page/, which is a host as well as a path. You need to test against only the hostname, and then redirect based on the path, e.g.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.es
RewriteRule ^a_page/ http://www.domain.com/another_page/ [R=301,L]
Yeah .. yet another url rewrite question. Sorry but the solutions I tried didn't work and gave me infinite redirect loops :(
So, we have a directory on
example.com/interface/...
and want to redirect it to
service.example.com/interface/... (including all folders and files in it)
its physically the same location but example.com will move to another server soon and then interface.example.com will point to the old(current) server
Right now example.com and service.example.com point to the same web home directory (yay for duplicate content huh)
Also .. we have a rule in place
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
and I suspect this one is somehow, together with the other rules I tried, causing the infinite loop error because www.service.example.com does not exist (and shouldnt)
I suppose its rather simple but I just can't get my head around rewrite stuff :(
You can add a new rule for this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^ http://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^interface(/.*)?$ http://service.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NC]
