I need to rewrite a directory and all is contents to a new directory however I am having issues I think due to the source directory having a full stop in it.
i.e.
http://example.com/1.0/ to http://example.com/newfolder/
Here is the rule I am trying
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^1\.0$ http://example.com/newfolder/ [NC,R=301,L]
You can use:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^1\.0(/.*)?$ http://example.com/newfolder$1 [R=301,L]
This will redirect /1.0/anything to /newfolder/anything

I have following folder structure in apache server.
Public_html
-->admin
--->admin_login.php
-->website
--->index.php
since the index.php inside the website folder,
i have given following code in .htaccess
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/website/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /website/$1 [L,NC]
so that the when the user enter root url , it will appear "www.myurl.com" instead of "www.myurl.com/website/"
but the issue is, i could not be able to access admin_login.php.
is there anyway to modify .htaccess, to come website/index.php in main url and able to access admin_login.php(both)?
Thanks in Advance
You need to add an exception to existing rule like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(website|admin)/ [NC]
RewriteRule .* website/$0 [L]
Negative condition %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(website|admin)/ will match every URI except URIs that start with /website/ or /admin/. This will allow you to directly open www.myurl.com/admin/admin_login.php.
With your shown samples and attempts please try following .htaccess rules file. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^index\.php/?$ website/index.php [QSA,NC,L]
I am struggling with an htaccess file. Actually, it is two files.
But first things first, so my questions are:
1) Why does my .htaccess(1) file add the www at the beginning of the HTTP_HOST and the slash at the end of folder REQUEST_URI IF AND ONLY IF the .htaccess(2) file is not there (deleted or renamed)?
2) What is wrong with the RewriteRule and conditions that I wrote in .htaccess(2) to redirect the REQUEST_URI to /publicfolder/REQUEST_URI? Conditions doesn't seem to work and when I surf to domain.com/nonpublicfolder it goes to domain.com/domainfolder/publicfolder/nonpublicfolder.
My website is structured as follows:
/
.htaccess(1)
domainfolder/
.htaccess(2)
publicfolder/
genericfolder/
index.extention
file.extention
nonpublicfolder/
So I have one htaccess file in the root folder ( .htaccess(1) ) where I:
add 'www' at the beginning of the HTTP_HOST;
add '/' at the end of REQUEST_URI if it does not end with a file extension;
redirect domain.com/anyfolder/anyfile.extention to domain.com/domainfolder/anyfolder/anyfile.extention;
like so:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# System symbolic links are allowed.
Options +FollowSymlinks
# Runtime rewriting engine enabled.
RewriteEngine On
# HTTP_HOST starts with 'www'.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.) [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,NC]
# Folder requests end with '/'.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ![^/]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9]+$ [NC]
RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,NC]
# Files and folders are in the 'domainfolder' folder.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/?domainfolder/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ /domainfolder%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,NC]
</IfModule>
And then I have my .htaccess(2) file - in the domainfolder folder - where I redirect files and folders requests to the publicfolder folder IF AND ONLY IF they are not pointing to the notpublicfolder folder or to the Google Site Verification file:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# Runtime rewriting engine enabled.
RewriteEngine On
# Public files and folders are in the 'publicfolder' folder.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/?domainfolder/publicfolder/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/?domainfolder/nonpublicfolder/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/?domainfolder/googlexxx.html$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?(.+)$ /publicfolder/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
</IfModule>
Thank you very much for your time and patience.
(1) mod_rewrite does multiple passes and on each by default it will only open the first .htaccess file it finds walking up the folder hierarchy from the requested file. read my Tips for debugging .htaccess rewrite rules for more discussion of this. Yes you can use a Options setting to change this behaviour but this has a performance hit and I would suggest that you avoid doing so.
(2) When using hierachical .htaccess files, mod_rewrite has to associate URI path to the current directory and can get this wrong. The RewriteBase directive tells mod_rewrite what the true association is, so use this.
Rule order is important. If you don't have a local Apache instance where you have root privilege and can enable rewrite logging, you need to build up your access file(s) incrementally rule-by-rule, testing at each step because you only get a work/doesn't work return. Again my tips explains how to do this.
I know similar questions have come up, though often without a working answer. I'm hoping to have better luck!
I have an .htaccess file in my root directory adding "www" to everything:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} ^mysite.org
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.org/$1 [R=permanent,L]
This generally works fine. I have a subfolder (/myquiz/) in which the old index.html file has been replaced with index.php. I know there are external links to /myquiz/index.html, so I want to make sure those redirect. Leaving index.html in place and trying to redirect from that led to some odd behavior, but adding an .htaccess in that directory works for that:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.html?$ /myquiz/index\.php [NC,R]
Trying to load index.html redirects to index.php as hoped for, and the WWW gets added if needed. But requesting mysite.org/myquiz/index.php directly does not add the WWW.
I tried adding "RewriteEngine inherit", but that resulted in calls getting redirected to my root folder instead. A great trick if I want to make a subfolder inaccessible, but not helping here. I also tried just adding the code from my root .htaccess into the beginning of my subfolder's .htaccess, but that worked no better.
Any ideas?
You shouldn't need to add another htaccess file in the myquiz folder. This should work in the htaccess file in the root of the site. Remove the htaccess file in myquiz and try this.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite\.org
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.org/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^myquiz/index\.html$ /myquiz/index.php [R=301,L]
Also I wouldn't use %{SERVER_NAME} unless your are sure the name is set properly in the config file. Then it can be more reliable than HTTP_HOST, otherwise I would instead use %{HTTP_HOST}.
I think inherit would work if you add an L flag to the rule that you have in your myquiz folder:
RewriteRule ^index\.html?$ /myquiz/index\.php [NC,R,L]
So that it redirects first, then the inherited rule (the www) gets applied after.
You could also just put both rules in the same file:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.org$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.org/$1 [R=permanent,L]
RewriteRule ^myquiz/index\.html$ http://www.mysite.org/myquiz/index.php [R=permanent,L]
How to get file directory trough .htaccess by using RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ?id=$1 [L,QSA]?
If .htaccess is located in http://localhost/some/dir/.htaccess and I'm opening http://localhost/some/dir/here/I/use/RewriteRule/, how I detect value /some/dir/ without using RewriteBase and without manual adding %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/some/dir/, like value localhost I get trough %{HTTP_HOST}?
If you do not use RewriteBase you need to tell mod-rewrite the real Directory Root /var/ww/mysite/some/dir in the rewrite rule. RewriteBase would take the location url and map it to the directory.
So you'll maybe end up with
RewriteRule /var/ww/mysite/some/dir/(.*)$ ?id=$1 [L,QSA]
And trying to map some internal variables it may be
RewriteRule %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/some/dir/(.*)$ ?id=$1 [L,QSA]
But I'm unsure, I rarely use mod_rewrite in .htaccess -- I prefer Directory tags, and the file path management can be different in .htaccess (auto removal and adding of directory prefixes). If you do not find a solution try to ask Servfault, plenty of admins other there.
Actualy Apache still does not have pathinfo($,PATHINFO_DIRNAME), function like has PHP.
So on now there are solution on using %{REQUEST_URI}, like this example:
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ /path-dirname/$1 [R=301,L]
may reset with:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.+)/$
RewriteRule ^.+/$ %1 [R=301,L]
Is it possible to set the /web directory as webroot without changing apache configuration file?
I tried using the following .htaccess code, but if i go to localhost/module/, it displays 404 error. But if i go to localhost/web/module/ then everything works.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule sf/(.*) lib/vendor/symfony/data/web/sf/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^$ web/ [L]
RewriteRule (.*) web/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
i do like this on the root :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule (.*) ./web/$1 [L]
And edit web/.htaccess uncommented the 'RewriteBase /' line.
this make all the mysite.com/aaaa/bbbb works like mysite.com/web/aaaa/bbbb
Short answer: no.
Bit longer: you will have to edit the apache config at least to give it permission to access the web/ directory, so even if you symlink your web folder to /var/www, it will not work.
This is quiet similar to my question Symfony on virtual host (document root problem).
This is my .htaccess in the project root directory:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/images/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/js/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/css/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /web/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/web/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /web/index.php [QSA,L]
This solved my problem but symfony tries to generate every url (eg. using url_for) from the document root so instead of url like domain.com/my-article it generates domain.com/web/my-article.
I had to slightly modify my PatternRouting class to trim the /web prefix from each url. I think this is not the best solution but it works.
Also if I want to access backend application I have to call always /web/backend.php/ because I don't want to have so many rewrite rules in the .htaccess.
If you want to see my extended PatternRouting class source code I'll paste it here.
Yes, it is possible. Copy everything from web/ up a level to your document root. Edit index.php to reflect the fact that everything it includes is now one level closer to its current directory than it used to be (one less ../). You won't have to edit a single other Symfony file.
