I have two folders on FTP root. site_v1 and site_v2. site_v2 has new version of website and site_v1 has older version. I wanted to point my domain to site_v2, the latest version. So I made an .htaccess on root as under.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} example.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !site_v2/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ site_v2/$1 [L]
This works well. When I open http://example.com; site_v2 loads seamlessly.
Then, for site_v1, I created a sub domain http://old.example.com and pointed it to site_v1 folder; I get this error when I run http://old.example.com.
The requested URL /site_v1/site_v2/site_v1/index.html
was not found on this server.
I am clueless. It seems that http://old.example.com is still pointing to site_v2 because of .htaccess on root. What could be the solution so I can force old.example.com to load in site_v1?
Try changing your rules to:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/site_v[0-9]/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /site_v2/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^old\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/site_v[0-9]/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /site_v1/$1 [L]
This way, the host matching against the `%{HTTP_HOST} var won't overlap.

My application webroot is like : /home/username/appname/public_html
I have created a subfolder under public_html and installed the wordpress there.
Like: /home/username/appname/public_html/subfolder
we used the below redirection code because we want to access the application like https://example.com/subfolder
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/br/$1 [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ http://example.com/br/$1 [L,R=301]
so when user will access main domain example.com so req will be redirected to example.com/subfolder/
but now we want to access example.com/file.txt
but the problem is due to redirection it also redirecting
so how can I exclude this url example.com/file.txt from redirection to example.com/subfolder/file.txt
Please help us.
I tried to add these config but did not work for me
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/file\.txt$
OR
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^example\.com\/file\.txt$
I am in a situation where an user can create his blog in a subdomain.
Users will create blogs and enter the address he wants like say,
abcd.domain.com Then my php code creates a directory called abcd.
To view the blog user will type in abcd.domain.com in his browser and I want a .htaccess code which will rewrite the url and open the files inside the domain.com/abcd
But for the user the url in the browser should stay abcd.domain.com
Currently I am trying this code
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^test\.domain\.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^test/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /test/$1 [L,QSA]
But this gives me 404 even though I have a file test.html inside the test folder and trying to view that page.
Also in this situation I will have to manually make change to the .htaccess file for URL rewrite. What I want to know is if it is possible to have a wild card subdomain redirect to the respective directory.
You can use:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^test\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/test/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /test/$1 [L,QSA]
REQUEST_URI with leading /.
With wild card subdomain:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/%1/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /%1/$1 [L,QSA]
Note that it takes more than a rewrite rule to have wildcard subdomains. Just fyi.
You need to have created a wildcard DNS record for subdomains and also tell apache to use any subdomain request by having a ServerAlias of *.domain.com in the apache config.
Then try your rule this way and see if it works for you.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^((?!www).+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %1::%{REQUEST_URI} !^(.*?)::/\1/?
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /%1/$1 [L,QSA]
After redirecting my client domain to my server i created rewrite rule in root folder .htaccess file to point domain to a subfolder1 (joomla website):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?myclientdomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/subfolder/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subfolder1/$1 [L]
Everything worked fine but today i found out that i can access any other subfolder in my server by entering for example: myclientdomain.com/subfolder2 and what's worse google can index that and show it in search results.
If there is any way to redirect a domain in a way that I won't be able to access any other folder on my server?
I would really appreciate help as I searched throughout google for answer, my server tech support said that they don't really support these kind of problems (they only gave me a piece of code from above) and I don't really know anything about .htaccess rules and how it works.
Try this
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?myclientdomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subfolder\/?(.*)?$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subfolder1/$1 [L]
Change above rule to:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?myclientdomain\.com$ [NC]
# if current URI is not starting with /subfolder/ then route to /subfolder/
RewriteRule ^((?!subfolder1/).*)$ subfolder1/$1 [L,NC]
In the public_html folder which is the root folder of my main site thesite.com, I have this htaccess file:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^m\.thesite\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog\.thesite\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.thesite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://thesite.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Here, am forcing non-www url as well as forcing https URL for the thesite.com. And I have two subdomains: m.thesite.com and blog.thesite.com.
Both are in separate subfolders inside public_html.
The m.thesite.com is in /public_html/m.thesite.com/ folder. And it has this htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.m\.thesite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://m.zapteka.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^category/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/?$ category\_product\_list.php?mid=$1&sid=$2&did=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^category/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/?$ category\_product\_list.php?mid=$1&sid=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^category/([^/\.]+)/?$ category\_product\_list.php?mid=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^p/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ product.php?id=$2&vid=$3&mid=$4 [L]
RewriteRule ^p/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ product.php?id=$2&vid=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^p/([^/\.]+)/([^/\.]+)/([0-9]+)/?$ product.php?id=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?([^/\.]*)/?$ $1.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^offer/(.*) product_offer.php?ind=$1
For this subdomain also, I need to force https urls as well as non-www urls.
It seems to be working for the main site. I mean thesite.com. But when I try to access the m.thesite.com, it seems to be internally redirecting to the files of thesite.com instead of the m.thesite.com. I mean the url is being shown as https://m.thesite.com/ but the pages are from https://thesite.com
I have been trying to debug the issue for several hours now. Probably it could be something small that I missed. Any ideas?
BTW, thesite.com is having Wildcard SSL installed.
EDIT
Am sorry if my explanation was confusing. When I said url is showing as https://m.thesite.com/ but the content is from https://thesite.com/, I meant to say that in browser the url is shown as https://m.thesite.com. But the template file contents where from the desktop version of the main site thesite.com. The m.thesite.com is mobile version of the site. The pages that displays the contents where separate in both the desktop and mobile version of the site.
Like you see in the htaccess code that I included above, there is some PHP files inside the /public_html/ folder for the desktop version. All the files for the mobile version of the site is in /public_html/m.thesite.com/ folder.
So, in short, when I try to access the https://m.thesite.com/, it is displaying the index.php page from /public_html/index.php instead of /public_html/m.thesite.com/
So that's how I found that there's issue in the routing.
EDIT
VirtualHost entries fetched by using this command /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -S:
I have also checked the Apache version and saw that it's 2.2.27 using the command: httpd -V
So I tried adding this line in the htaccess file:
RewriteLog "/logs/rewrite.log"
RewriteLogLevel 9
But it was giving internal server error. So I tried this line instead also:
LogLevel mod_rewrite.c:trace8
That was also giving me internal server error when site is accessed. So I commented it out.
I want my domain without www always displayed, ie the URL is valid: http://miweb.net And besides this domain to point to a subdirectory and not the root directory.
How I can indicate in the htacess both conditions?
You may want to take a look at VirtualHost.
Assuming you are using Apache, this will allow you to redirect URLs with www or other sub-domains to different folders on the server.
I think I've found the solution. Apparently it works:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?myweb.net$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/myweb/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /myweb/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.myweb\.net$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/myweb\.net\/" [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ myweb/index.html [L]
If you access from a browser http://www.myweb.net, we automatically redirected to http://myweb.net (no www).
And that domain no longer points to the root directory of hosting "/ www /" if not "/ www / myweb /".
