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.

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'm currently struggelling with the following situation which I want to solve with HTacess redirection.
The main CMS is running in the root directory /.
In the subdirectory /shop/.. there is a shop (based on another system)
Till now everything is fine: The main website is rewritten by /.htaccess and the shop by /shop/.htaccess
Now I want to access an english version of the shop with /en/shop/..
Actually the calls should only be redirected to the shop-system in the directory /shop (but with the url /en/shop/.. in the browser)
I tried the following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/en/shop/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /shop/$1 [L,QSA]
Which is not really working.
My question is: Can I solve that with simple htaccess or would it be a more elegant solution to make a symlink /en/shop => /shop ?
(Are there any performance differences between these solutions?)
Thanks in advance
Put the following code at the root folder .htaccess file :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\s/+en/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^shop/ en%{REQUEST_URI} [R=302,L,NE]
RewriteRule ^en/(.*)$ $1 [L,NC]
Have checked out lots of topics here and there regarding the issue in question,
but no results yet.
So here is the issue.
Two projects:
proj: site.loc
proj2.0: newsite.loc
They are located in different places on the file system.
And i need to redirect from one project to another internally,
so url for site.loc is preserved.
E.g. requesting site.loc/hey/there i need apache to serve files form proj2.0.
First, i know that on the .htaccess level we cannot use RewriteRule to file-system path
(for security reasons).
Okay, an Alias is a workaround.
Say i add an Alias to virtual host as following:
Alias /newsite /some/path/to/proj2.0
Then if i'll add the rule to proj's .htaccess:
RewriteRule ^hey/there /newsite
This will work.
But, the webroot does not work:
RewriteRule ^$ /newsite
Is it i'm doing something wrong or there is some quirk about the webroot ?
Thanks in advance
You should not rewrite to your root, but suppress it. Here is how I have done it in my project to suppress the www
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
There should be a way to make it work with your /newsite in the same manner.
I am using Zend Server CE (v.5.1.0) installed on C: on a Win7 machine. I have added one project to httpd.conf by adding:
Alias /project "D:\Homepages\project"
<Directory "D:\Homepages\project">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
My .htaccess file in the project directory contains the following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/\w*\.(css|js) [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
Now to the problem; if I go to
http://localhost/project/index.php
everything seems to be working fine. I reach the index.php file and get my contents.
However, if I go to any other page that would trigger the RewriteRule, it seems to be adding the directory path. FireFox outputs the following Not Found message:
The requested URL /Homepages/project/index.php was not found on this server.
I tried to find a similar question/answer here, but failed. Any idea?
Ps. Me accepting of an answer might be delayed as I will be out for a while on an errand.
You need to set the RewriteBase directive; otherwise, mod_rewrite automatically, and by default, prepends the file path to the resulting rewrite rule.
From: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html
When a substitution occurs for a new URL, this module has to re-inject the URL into the server processing. To be able to do this it needs to know what the corresponding URL-prefix or URL-base is. By default this prefix is the corresponding filepath itself. However, for most websites, URLs are NOT directly related to physical filename paths, so this assumption will often be wrong! Therefore, you can use the RewriteBase directive to specify the correct URL-prefix.
If your webserver's URLs are not directly related to physical file paths, you will need to use RewriteBase in every .htaccess file where you want to use RewriteRule directives.
Have your last line like this:
RewriteRule ^.*$ /index.php [NC,L]
However I think this is infinite loop so I would suggest this rule instead:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\s/index.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php [NC]
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
which prevents going to index.php if it is already /index.php.
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]
