Can someone help me with this?
I manages to redirect already the root access. when someone access my site using sample.com it will redirect in to https://sample.com/ but when someone access the site using this method , sample.com/blog, It still loads the http://sample.com/blog not the https://it should be
The following has worked on most of my projects:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [L]
The following is inside a .htaccess placed in the root HTML folder of the website. Place additional rewrite rules after this rule.
EDIT: this RewriteCond expects HTTP to run on the standard port 80. Adjust it in case you transfer HTTP over some other port.

I need to redirect www.domain.com/folder to subdomain.anotherdomain.com without change the first url, www.domain.com/folder. In www.domain.com I have a WordPress site and in subdomain.anotherdomain.com a Moodle site. By that, only www.domain.com/folder must have a redirect, not the www.domain.com or www.domain.com/other_folder. It can be done? It´s possible?.
In the Worpress site I´ve this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
I try with a iframe, but a Google Chrome don´t like that :/ (cookies issues)
Many thanks in advance.
You cannot somehow keep a URL pointing to one http server visible in the browsers URL bar but make it connect to some other http server. That would be a gigantic security issue.
If you can change the setup such that both host names point to the same http server, then what you ask can be achieved by applying simple some internal rewriting rules.
For separate http servers your only option is to use the proxy module the apache http server brings, if it is installed and enabled ...
ProxyPass /folder https://subdomain.anotherdomain.com
ProxyPassReverse /folder https://subdomain.anotherdomain.com
See the documentation of the proxy module for details: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass
The proxy module can also be used from within the rewriting module, but this comes with an optional decrease of speed:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?folder/(.*)$ https://subdomain.anotherdomain.com/$1 [P,QSA,END]
Again this is documented in the rewriting module:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/rewrite/flags.html#flag_p
I have a Detroit iOS & Android Mobile App Development website that only has one web page : index.html.
The source code of the site is here.
Instead of showing a 404 error page, I want to redirect the user to thefirstprototype.com if they try to go anywhere else or try to put anything after.
For eg:
mail.thefirstprototype.com takes the user to just thefirstprototype.com
thefirstprototype.com/mail takes the user to just thefirstprototype.com
I know it's possible to do it using a .htaccess in the root folder, but I am just not sure how. There are a lot of tutorials showing how to do it between different domains, but nothing to my specific case. How do I do it?
Thanks
Edit1: Please note that I am not using any CMS like Wordpress. I am just plain FTP to push a static HTML, CSS, JS webpage to the hosting server
Try the following:
DirectoryIndex index.html
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect non-canonical hostnames (eg. mail)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$
RewriteRule ^ http://example.com/ [R=302,L]
# Redirect 404 to root
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . / [R=302,L]
However, whether this catches requests for the mail. subdomain will depend on whether that subdomain points to the same place as your main domain. (For cPanel shared hosting, that is not necessarily the case.)
Change the 302 (temporary) redirect to 301 only once you have tested that this works OK - to avoid potential caching issues associated with 301 (permanent) redirects.
As an added bonus, you could redirect any direct requests for index.html back to the root. For example, add the following between the above two rule blocks:
# Remove "index.html" if requested directly
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ / [R=302,L]
The condition that checks against the REDIRECT_STATUS environment variable is to ensure we don't get a redirect-loop since mod_dir internally rewrites the request to index.html.
I've been trying to limit access to a specific subdomain via the server port, e.g. it can only be accessed from subdomain.domain.com:8443 and no other ports.
I'm currently using hostgator for my webhost, and it's already been setup such that subdomain.domain.com points to the correct subdirectory.
Now in the htaccess file, I'm currently trying this:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /subdomain
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^8443$
RewriteRule ^ - [F]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^8443$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/subdomain/$1 [R=301,L]
As far as the blocking of other ports goes, it seems to work since accessing either subdomain.domain.com or www.domain.com/subdomain, I get a 403 forbidden page. But I can't get it to load the normal content correctly when I do access it via subdomain.domain.com:8443 or www.domain.com:8443/subdomain. Am I doing the rewrite conditions and rules correctly?
Thanks!
The R=301 tells the server to do a redirect, not a (silent) rewrite. So, when you load via 8443, the user is redirected to http://%{HTTP_HOST}/subdomain/$1 without the port 8443 specification and they are then blocked by the first rule. If you do a curl -I on subdomain.domain.com:8443 you should see the 301 redirect code rather than 200.
Remove the R=301 and remove the full domain specification in the final RewriteRule to leave:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subdomain/$1 [L]
This should do a silent rewrite of the content.
I have a site, mydomain.com/secure which I only want to be accessible via HTTPs. This is mapped as a virtual directory like this:
-wwwroot
--secure (Virtual directory, bound on port 443 only) - https://mydomain.com:443/secure
--externalApp (Mapped as a different site on port 80) - http://mydomain.com/
Currently requests to mydomain.com/secure are served, but I want to force them to redirect to HTTPs. Despite trying with rewrite rules I can't get this to work properly. Is it possible or just not doable?
Try this:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^/?(example|secure|test) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
You can add any directory you want in the example|secure|test area.
Example with comments.
My very dear Stackoverflow community,
I have the following redirection problem and after several unsuccessful attempts I come here in search of enlightenment. My problem is the following. I have a domain, let's call it 'www.mydomain.com', and my 'public_html' directory has two folders as follows:
public_html
public_html/my_app/
public_html/my_other_app/
First, I would like that when typing the URL 'www.mydomain.com', I get redirected to the contents of folder 'my_app', while keeping the same URL. In fact this I have already accomplished, so whenever I type 'www.mydomain.com' I get redirected to 'www.mydomain.com/index.php', which actually corresponds to the 'public_html/myapp/index.php' script under 'myapp'.
Now I want to have a subdomain called 'other.mydomain.com', which has to redirect to contents of the 'my_other_app' folder, but I do not know how to make .htaccess work for this and at the same time work for the first case also.
So this is basically, the main domain redirects to one folder, and a subdomain redirects to another folder, and both folders are located under the public_html directory
Any hints more than welcome.
For your reference I post below my current .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
# redirect to www prefix
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# if start with www and no https then redirect
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# rewrite URL to trim folder
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/test/
RewriteRule ^$ /login [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ test/$1 [L]
This actually works for my main domain, it also rewrites the url to https. I need to add something in here in order to process separately the 'other.mydomain.com' and redirect to the '/my_other_app/' subfolder
what you need is a vhost (virtual host) per app. In the vhost, you will define the vhosts root directory, which will point to either of your sub directories.
There is IP based vhosts (one IP address per subdomain) or name based vhosts (the vhost is chosen based on the HTTP host header that all modern browser send).
But there is too much to say about vhosts to write it all here, just read the apache documentation here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/
I think with pure .htaccess files, you can't do that (I might be wrong). Normally you would add vhosts in the main apache config. Based on your hosting, this may not be possible. Talk to you hosting provider in that case.
