I want to remove the php extension for a certain file (only this!). BUT: It uses get parameters and they should remain!
I tried it with my .htaccess and something like: RewriteEngine on followed by either
RewriteRule ^file(.*)$ file.php$1
or
RewriteRule ^file(.+)$ file.php$1
But it doesn't work. (First gives error 500, second gives 404)
Example what I want to call in the browser:
file?param=asd&foo=bar
It should call as:
file.php?param=asd&foo=bar
I found the solution myself. Maybe anyone wants to know:
RewriteRule ^file$ file.php [QSA]

I have an .htaccess file with several lines. It does not work as expected. Mod_rewrite is enabled. RewriteLogLevel is set to 9.
The first two rules are there to forbid uris with a length more then 80 characters:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.{80}
RewriteRule .* - [F]
It does not seem to get evaluated as every test url passes through and it does not generate an error either.
I also tried:
RewriteRule .{80} - [F]
But that did not do the trick either. The process ends with a 404, not a 403.
This next rule is not working either. It used to work.
RewriteRule ^(\/)?([\w]+)$ /index.php [L]
The URI /Contact was always handled by this index.php.
Whatever URL I type I get a 404. I should get a 403 or a 200. Not a 404. What am I missing?
Apache has on all directories the permission to read, write and execute and on all files the permission to read and write.
The two urls for testing are:
127.0.0.4/asssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssddddddddddddddddddddd?p=s&s=psv
and
127.0.0.4/Contact
The alias for 127.0.0.4 used is considerate.lb.
Try this rule instead:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+\S{80}
RewriteRule ^ - [F]
Using THE_REQUEST instead of REQUEST_URI as that variable might get overwritten due to presence of other rules in your .htaccess
Finally I have found a solution. The problem was not in the coding of the .htaccess. I replaced the file with a previous version, added the new lines to test the request and it worked all fine.
It is not a satisfactory solution, because it can happen again and I do not have any clue what caused the error. If someone knows the error, I would love to hear what might have been the exact cause and how to solve that properly. I would like to change the tags of the question as the current tags might be misleading (although other people might experience the same problem how apache handles a .htaccess file), but I do not know which tags I should use.
For my family members I was giving each person their own subdomain
(sister1.mydomain.com, sister2.mydomain.com, etc...)
I was using PHP to detect the domain, and then I'd load information related to the subdomain dynamically.
I'd like to get rid of the subdomains and use the power of .htaccess
My goal is to give the same URL:
www.mydomain.com/sister1
www.mydomain.com/sister2
www.mydomain.com/mommy
www.mydomain.com/daddyo
Obviously, I don't plan to have literal working directories for each person.
I'd pass the "sister1" portion to a process.php script that takes care of the rest.
I've figure out how to do it by manually typing each RewriteRule in my htaccess file:
Options +FollowSymLinks
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/?sister1$ process.php?entity=sister1 [L]
RewriteRule ^/?sister2$ process.php?entity=sister2[L]
RewriteRule ^/?mommy$ process.php?entity=mommy[L]
RewriteRule ^/?daddyo$ process.php?entity=daddyo[L]
I feel this is the long way of doing it.
Is there a more universal way of extracting the text after the first "/" forwardslash, and passing it to process.php?entity=$1 ?
I tried it this way:
RewriteRule ^/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ process.php?entity=$1 [NC,L]
I'm getting the apache 404 error: "Not Found".
It is because you have a mandatory / in the beginning of your rule, i.e., you are always looking for something like /sibling in the URL. Your first examples have that first forward slash as optional due to the question mark after it.
You do not need a beginning forward slash - normally the rewrite rule picks up stuff after the domain name
www.example.com/string/mod/rewrite/gets/is.here
So just remove the starting slash and it should work.
I have this line of .htaccess
This line is used to get images from another server.
RewriteRule ^resources/fabricantes(.*)$ http://mysecondserver.com/arq/pictures/fab$1
than, if I have the url: http://myserver.com/resources/fabricantes/fab_1.jpg
this image will be get from: http://mysecondserver.com/arq/pictures/fab/fab_1.jpg
The Problem:
In some cases, the image doesn't exists on mysecondserver.com, how can I redirect to a "image unavailable" image in this cases?
First think you need to understand that this rule can only work from mysecondserver.com host not from server.com.
On mysecondserver.com place this .htaccess in /arq/pictures/.htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /arq/pictures/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ no-image.jpg [L]
On mysecondserver.com, you would have .htaccess checking for -f status of the REQUEST_FILENAME. It could send the user back to the first server, if necessary. The alternative is to explicitly list all known failures back on your first server, which is a lot of work for you (even if you have a complete list). There's no way for the first server to know if a file actually exists on the second server.
I need help with a URL problem I've encountered with a rewriteRule.
What I need it to do is following: example.com/en/page/page/
At the moment the following works fine: example.com/en/page/
But once it goes like "example.com/en/page/page/" I receive a 404 - page not found error even if the page in fact is located in the serverfiles.
The clue here is that I use a variable in the /en/ part of the URL (multilanguage system) and it seems that I cannot figure out how to get it to work with that included.
At the moment I have the following rewriteRule in my .htaccess file.
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?$ index.php?lang=$1&uri=$2 [L]
Do any of you have a clue on what might work?
Best regards,
PureDarkness
You don't include anything behind the second /. You could try:
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/(.*)$ index.php?lang=$1&uri=$2 [L]
And you can add [QSA] if you also need to get the parameters.
This is the contents of my .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^upload$ upload.php
RewriteRule ^/(\d+)/?.*$ /view.php?id=$1 [L]
The first rule successfully works. When I navigate to http://localhost/upload it shows the upload.php page.
The second rule however, does not. When I browse to: http://localhost/1234/some-string I get a 404 error. It's meant to show this page: http://localhost/view.php?id=1234.
Hopefully you can see what I'm trying to do with the rule, I want the last string on the end of the URL to be completely ignored, and take the 1234 as a parameter for view.php.
Can anyone spot why this isn't working? I've tried everything I can think of, but to no success. Thanks!
it will be trying to find the directory /1234/ and failing. change the / to a - and it should work
EDIT: got that completely wrong ... it's actually that you have a / at the beginning of your pattern, whereas MOD_REWRITE receives the path without the first slash.
