In hosting, there are folders of a.mysite.com, b.mysite.com, c.mysite.com ....z.mysite.com within the root folder of mysite.com, and each site file is stored.
What I want is without installing all robots.txt files in each subdomain folder.
It is to install only one in the mysite.com root folder and share it all. Because all you need is a robots.txt file in its most basic form.
so in the end
When connecting to a.mysite.com/robots.txt, b.mysite.com/robots.txt, etc., you want to be properly connected to the robots.txt file.

I have installed Xenforo in my public_html in my Cpanel which means my forum is available in site.com
Now I want to add another folder contains my web app and want to access it in site.com/myapp. I created a folder "myapp" in public_htmll beside Xenforo files and now when I enter the URL site.com/myapp it goes to a 404 page of the forum. I need to Xenforo exclude this folder and let the app lunch in this address. How can I do that?
You should move your XenForo installation to a subdirectory - many people use site.com/community as the forum root and either have a separate home page at site.com/ or just redirect the domain root to the /community URL.
This then allows you to have other apps running in other subdirectories like site.com/myapp without issue.
In XenForo 2.x this works fine, If you have enabled full Seo friendly urls from admin panel, Make sure you have proper .htaccess file in place. In you case, I believe you did not upload .htaccess file in public_html folder
I have a install that has a web folder that has the website stored in this. How can I make the domain load from this folder within the public_html folder.
The domain is like: sub.domain.co.nz
Don't put the entire Symfony project under the public_html folder - this will cause all of the project files to be accessible over the web, including .yml files that include sensitive information like database passwords!
Put the Symfony project files in a folder that is not web accessible. Then configure your web server so that the DocumentRoot points to the path of the web folder of the Symfony project, and also modify the paths of all the aliases.
My friend's dad asked me to change the design of his website, so he gave me access to his account and I created a sub-folder where I uploaded the new design. The problem is that he has forgotten the password to his control panel and I only have access to the FTP in the sub-folder. I'm trying to redirect the domain (currently going to the root folder) to the sub-folder but since I don't have access to the root folder I'm finding it difficult to do so.
I've already tried a redirect with .htaccess but since I can only upload the file to my sub-folder, it thinks the redirect is to a sub-folder within that folder, instead of the folder inside the root.
TL;DR...
I want to redirect 'mydomain.com' to 'mydomain.com/folder' but only have access to the FTP in 'mydomain.com/folder'.
Thanks in advance!
.htaccess applies to the directory that contains it.
You cannot change this if you have not access to vhost.conf files (what would change the base dir of the site) or to the parent directory’s .htaccess.
You will need to:
Reset your dad’s friend’s password and forget this redirect, changing the existing web files (the cleanest way), or
change the .htaccess file in your parent's dad directory, adding this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ dir2/$1 [R=301,L,P]
This should redirect the user to dir2, hiding that redirect in the urlbar.

For testing I hosted my website on free server from 000webhost.com
They have a directory structure:-
(root folder) \
(public folder) \public_html
this directory structure enables to keep all the library files in root folder and all public data in \public_html, so I developed my website accordingly, and my final structure looked like:-
/
/include(this folder contains library files)
/logs(log files)
/public_html
/public_html/index.php
/public_html/home.php
/public_html/and other public files
on 000webhost makes only public_folder available to be accessed via url and my url looked neat and clean like
www.xample.com/index.php
or
www.example.com/home.php
but after completion of development I moved website to shared host purchased from go-daddy.com, now they do not have any such kind of directory permission, all the files are kept in root folder and are accessible via url also url has become like:-
www.example.com/public_html/home.php
or
www.example.com/public_html/index.php
How should I redirect url request to public_html folder again so as to make library file unavailable to public access and make url neat and clean.
Does Godaddy allow you access to Apache?
If so you might be able to modify document root in such a way that the public folder is on the same level as the library and log folders.
Otherwise you will be left in the same situation as many other who use shared hosting and have to protect your folders with .htaccess files.
I am in a shared hosting and I have made some space for my friend to host his website. As i know the power of a simple php script, I want to restrict my parent folder being accessed by Sub folder files. What this actually mean is, "My friend would have access to his domain folder only". He can neither include any file outside his root directory nor list the files.
public_html/ is the root of my directory
public_html/myfriend.com/ is the root of my friendss directory
I want to learn both.
01: public_html/ can be accessed by all the files except the files in folder myfriend.com/
02: public_html/ can be accessed no file in sub directories.
This would help me a lot.
Reminder: As a shared hosting holder, I don't have access to httpd.conf
Any way With httpd.conf or Without httpd.conf?
Well, it is all done server-side, so why not to create you friend seperate FTP User, MySQL user, restrict access to SSH and in FTP settings make /public_html/friendzone the root folder of his FTP User?
