I'm bulding a RESTful api based on Tonic.
On my developer machine and our stage server we use virtual hosts.
Tonic uses a .htaccess file to translate the incomming calls to it's dispatcher.php file. This works fine on servers without VirtualHosts enabled.
However if i enable VirtualHosts i get a file not found even thought the path and name to the file is correct.
Here is the VirtualHost setup on my developer machine.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin#xxxxxxxxxxxx
ServerAlias *.dev.xxxxx
VirtualDocumentRoot /home/xxxxxxxx/workspace/%1
<Directory /home/xxxxxxxx/workspace/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
And Tonic's .htacces located in a folder called rest in the project root:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !dispatch\.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* dispatch.php [L,QSA]
</IfModule>
A call to http://project.dev.xxxxx/rest/ gives:
Not Found
The requested URL /home/xxxxxxxx/workspace/project/rest/dispatch.php was
not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at xxxxxxx Port 80
It appears as though you're misusing VirtualDocumentRoot. Try changing it to:
DocumentRoot /home/xxxxxxxx/workspace/project/rest
Also, here's a good explanation on the VirtualDynamicRoot: Dynamically configured mass virtual hosting
Hope that helps.

I have a website build with Codeigniter HMVC. On my local machine using Wamp it runs like it should. I want to upload it to my webserver that has an SSL certificate.
No matter what i try, i cant get the website to run on my webserver. I have tried following this :
How to force ssl in codeigniter?
But none of the given solutions work in my situation.
my .htaccess file looks like this :
Options +FollowSymLinks
Options -Indexes
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
in config.php of codeigniter i have :
$config['base_url'] = 'https://www.example.com/';
my webserver is an ubuntu 16 machine with apache, using an letsencrypt certificate. mod rewrite is enabled, but besides that is a standard configuration.
I have tried redirecting with hooks as mentioned in the link above, but to no avail. I have also tried various .htaccess file configuration but also no result there.
Is there anyone who has this running on their server?
regards,
sander
Because you say,
my webserver is an ubuntu 16 machine
I assume you are not using a shared server from a hosting provider and so you have complete access to Apache's configuration files. If that is true then you should not use .htaccess files. Read THIS and THIS to learn why.
I also assume you have a set of Apache "sites-available" files that define <VirtualHost> configs. It is inside those <VirtualHost> blocks where you should be placing the code you currently have in .htaccess.
To redirect all http requests to https try this as the contents of the "default" site in a "sites-available" configuration file e.g. "000-default.conf"
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.example.com
ServerAlias example.com
RedirectMatch 301 (.*) https://www.example.com$1
</VirtualHost>
What this will do is take any http request and immediately redirect to the https: URL. If you are using some other port besides the typical :80, adjust accordingly.
As mentioned, you can do the rewriting in a VirtualHost. Here's an example for the https: config file (maybe named along the lines of "020-example-443.conf")
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName www.example.com
ServerAlias example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/whatever
ServerAdmin web-boss#example.com
<Directory /var/www/whatever>
DirectoryIndex index.php
Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [PT]
</Directory>
# SSL Engine Switch:
# Enable/Disable SSL for this virtual host.
SSLEngine on
# Certificates delivered by certbot - your's maybe elsewhere
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/yoursite/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/yoursite/privkey.pem
#SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth +ExportCertData +StrictRequire
<FilesMatch "\.(cgi|shtml|phtml|php)$">
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</FilesMatch>
<Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin>
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
With these in place, you won't have to do anything special in CodeIgniter except, as you already do, use the following
$config['base_url'] = 'https://www.example.com/';
You must add after RewriteEngine on
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
In apache 2.2.22, I have multiple local servers setup such that localhostN refers to a server which I can access via local.myserver.com (for different "myserver"s). The problem is that one such server is doing a strange redirect when adding the automatic slash (I'm guessing via mod_dir), where accessing:
http://local.myserver.com/noslashdir
sends me to
http://localhost5/noslashdir/
instead of to
http://local.myserver.com/noslashdir/
I have not been able to override this behavior in the .htaccess file. Here are the relevant details:
/noslashdir/.htaccess:
DirectoryIndex index.html
/.htaccess:
SetEnvIf HTTPS on http_proto=s
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^noslashdir/(.*)$ /noslashdir/$1.html [L]
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^noslashdir/(.+)\.html$ http%{http_proto}://%{HTTP_HOST}/noslashdir/$1 [L,R=302]
/etc/httpd/httpd.conf
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.5>
ServerName localhost5
DocumentRoot /var/www/myserver.com/
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm index.shtml
<Directory "/var/www/myserver.com">
Options Indexes +Includes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Allow from all
Order allow,deny
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/myserver.com/cgi-bin/"
</VirtualHost>
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.5 local.myserver.com localhost5
I have tried RewriteRules, DirectorySlash Off, etc, but nothing has worked so far. All other desired redirects work fine.
Apache is using the ServerName you have set for your VirtualHost when creating “self-referential URLs”.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/en/mod/core.html#servername:
“The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating redirection URLs.”
You should set UseCanonicalName to Off:
“In many situations Apache must construct a self-referential URL -- that is, a URL that refers back to the same server. With UseCanonicalName On Apache will use the hostname and port specified in the ServerName directive to construct the canonical name for the server. This name is used in all self-referential URLs, […]
With UseCanonicalName Off Apache will form self-referential URLs using the hostname and port supplied by the client if any are supplied […]”
I know this is quite old problem, but i have no luck when trying to find the right solution. I have tried every possible configuration but still no luck. I'm working on PHP project using laravel. I got no problem at all when set up the laravel.labs as vhost INSIDE the htdocs. But when I move it into separated folder which is C:\vhosts i got this 403 error. The purpose of vhosts folder is to hold multiple vhost. The following are my configuration:
System:
windows 7 64-bit
XAMPP v 1.7.7
Apache/2.2.21
PHP: 5.3.8
httpd.conf :
# Virtual hosts
Include "conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf"
httpd-vhosts.conf
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot C:/xampp/htdocs
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot c:/vhosts/laravel_labs/public
ServerName laravel.labs
</VirtualHost>
c:\windows\system32\driver\etc\host
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost

.htaccess (inside the C:\vhosts\laravel_labs\public)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes...
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Can anyone help to find something that i missed? any advice guys? thanks
Every time you add a new Alias or DocumentRoot, you need a <directory> section just like the one for your default DocumentRoot. Depending on your release, this either has something like
Order deny,allow
or
require all granted
Finally i found The answer for this problem. I have to add some lines in httpd.conf
Something like this:
Alias /laravel_labs/public "C:/vhosts/laravel_labs/public/"
<Directory "C:/vhosts/laravel_labs/public/">
AllowOverride All
Order Allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

I need help with CodeIgniter -- trying to it to work in virtual host envirnoment in Ampps.
I have been following the following tutorial:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/php/basecamp-style-subdomains-with-codeigniter/
I am trying to have two installations of CodeIgniter running in two directories:
/students and
/teachers
www.test.com -> goes to /teachers directory
www.user1.test.com -> goes to /students directory
I have the above working on my local machine. The different URL's take me to the correct directory. CI works. Problem arises when I try to access controller using redirect.
if I try to redirect('error') I get:
user2.test.com/user2.test.com/error
Also get an "internal server error"
if I type in
user2.test.com/error
I get an "internal server error"
if I type in
user2.test.com/index.php/error
I get desired result
It works if I try to load view directly in
$this->load->view('error')
I think I need help with the urls and paths. Any guidance most gratefully received.
Nothing particularly enlightening in CI log files
In Apache logs I find:
Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.
Things I have changed:
htaccess in root - changed rewrite base. Also takes out index.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /students/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 index.php
</IfModule>
application/config.php
$config['base_url'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
As per tutorial. Needs to be dynamic.
my Apache hppd-vhosts.conf file
NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Ampps/www/teachers"
ServerName test.com
ServerAlias test.com
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Ampps/www/teachers">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Ampps/www/students"
ServerName test.com
ServerAlias *.test.com
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Ampps/www/students">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
index.php in root
kept as is. Things got worse when I tried to change these
$system_path = 'system';
$application_folder = 'application';
what about your host file? your host file should be 127.0.0.1 test.com and first try to disable the student sub domain and see if it dose work. Its look like your both ServerName test.com is same try to change the other one with student.com and see whats happen most probably both are conflicting
My apache server is set up with a very basic configuration. I used to serve just one website from apache, let's call it example.com. Within the httpd.conf file, I had some code to force the website to always show www in the url.
I recently added a subdomain for the site, blog.example.com. In order to do this I needed to create 2 virtual directory directives within my httpd.conf file.
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName blog.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/blog
</VirtualHost>
Immediately after this, I kept my rewrite code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R]
The problem is that this after adding the Virtual Directory code, the rewrite code is no longer working. I tried creating the following Directory directive, which doesn't seem to work at all.
<Directory "/var/www/html">
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
Additionally, I tried creating a .htaccess file in the html folder of the website and restarting apache, but nothing that I put in there is getting noticed at all.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Ok, I figured it out. I just needed to move the rewrite logic within the start and end Directives. Thanks for the help #animuson. – Henry Wrinkler
