Looking for a bit of help as ending up going round in circles trying to understand where the problem may lie.
We recently had our magento side on www.domain.com which would shop through rewrite rules as:
"domain.com/"
This was correct.
However, as we are targeting the UK market, the site being relatively new we decided to buy up the .co.uk domain and make the switch. Making it www.domain.co.uk, this was all changed correctly in the magento database/backend yet this now starts showing:
"domain.co.uk"
Missing the forward slash on the end.
I have confirmed in the mysql database that the URL has a slash, and have even turned off mod_rewrite from the .htacess, yet there is still a rewrite occurring from somewhere.
It seems like forever since I set this up on the previous site to remove the "http://" and add the forward slash, but I can't remember how or where I set this.
If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Edit : Below is the code for rewrite:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

make sure you update all instances of the web/unsecure/base_url & web/secure/base_url in the core_config_data table, I'd suggest searching this table for all values like %domain.co.uk%.
Also delete the cache folder as some config values aren't completely removed with the admin Clear cache button.
Are you sure there is an actual redirect happening? Try using this site http://redirectcheck.com to see if you are actually being redirected. Some browsers will not show the http:// or trailing / so it may not be an actual issue.
If you need to redirect non-www to www add the following lines to your .htaccess file below " RewriteEngine on"
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

I'm using the micro framework Silex on my website hosted on a VPS.
So, the site files are in the /site_name/public_html/ folder but, with Silex, the site must point to the /site_name/public_html/web/ folder.
In the public_html directory, I have the following .htaccess file :
Options -Indexes -MultiViews
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Redirect to https & www
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
# Redirect incoming URLs to web folder
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !web/
RewriteRule (.*) /web/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
And, in the /public_html/web/ folder, the following .htaccess :
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# Redirect incoming URLs to index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
Now, everything works fine but my pages are accessible with three different patterns :
example.com/page/ (the one I want to keep)
example.com/web/page/
example.com/web/index.php/page/
I have used the meta canonical to avoid duplicate content but I still want these last two options to not exist.
I guess I have something to change in both .htaccess files but I can't find what it is.
I would actually remove the .htaccess file in the /web subdirectory altogether and rewrite directly to /web/index.php in the root .htaccess file. By having two .htaccess files you are seemingly creating extra work. The mod_rewrite directives in the subdirectory will completely override the parent directives (by default), so your canonical HTTPS and www redirects are also being overridden.
(Presumably you had a RewriteEngine On directive in the /web/.htaccess file?)
Having removed the /web/.htaccess file, try something like the following in your root .htaccess file:
Options -Indexes -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /web
# Redirect to https & www
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=302,L,NE]
# If /web or /index.php is present at the start of the requested URL then remove it (via redirect)
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^(?:web|index\.php)/(.*) /$1 [R=302,L]
# Front-controller...
# Internally rewrite all requests to /web/index.php (uses RewriteBase set above)
RewriteRule index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
The check against the REDIRECT_STATUS environment variable ensures we only test initial requests and not requests that have been later rewritten.
The <IfModule> wrapper is not required, unless your site is intended to work without mod_rewrite.
Note that a request like /web/index.php/page/ would result in two redirects. First to /index.php/page then to /page. Since this is an edge case I would consider a double redirect to be acceptable.
UPDATE: I've removed the "directory" check in the above as this would have prevented the document root (example.com/) from being rewritten to the /web subdirectory. This would have consequently resulted in a 403 if you didn't have a directory index document (eg. index.php) in the document root of your site. (However, requests for example.com/page/ should have still worked OK.)
Test with 302 (temporary) redirects and only change to 301 (permanent) when you are sure it's working OK - to avoid any caching issues in the browser. Be sure to clear the browser cache before testing.
I have the same problem as the User in this thread. I basically want to redirect all http requests to https without www using htaccess.
I have implemented a solution to this problem and it does a pretty good job.
However, it does not redirect to the corresponding URI. If I visit my website on port 80 example.com/news I will be redirected to https://example.com/index.php which is basically the root page..
I really need your help guys, I totally have no clue about htaccess..
EDIT This is what my mod_rewrite looks like..
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
# First rewrite to HTTPS:
# Don't put www. here. If it is already there it will be included, if not
# the subsequent rule will catch it.
RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
The issue probably is that you first rewrite to index.php and then make an external redirection. Try changing the order of the rules. Note that the L flag only terminates the current walk through the rule set. It is restarted after that. So first do the external direction to switch to the https protocol, then do the internal rewriting if that is corrected.
I've a small, but hard to understand problem with .htaccess in CMS system.
I've mod expires, that cache stuff on whole website, but I don't want to cache stuff in /admin URL, I can't make another .htacess, couse I've MVC structure and no real directory that could hold all my admin stuff.
I've found directive, but it only works in server configuration and I want it to work on different hostings, so only in htaccess file.
EDIT- Rewrite
# Turn on URL rewriting
RewriteEngine On
# Installation directory
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ![0-9]$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,R=301]
# Protect hidden files from being viewed
<Files .*>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
</Files>
# Protect application and system files from being viewed
RewriteRule ^(?:application|modules|system)\b.* index.php/$0 [L]
# Allow any files or directories that exist to be displayed directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Rewrite all other URLs to index.php/URL
RewriteRule .* index.php/$0 [PT]
You can apply your Expires directive using a <if> directive with an expression to match against /admin:
<If "%{REQUEST_URI} =~ /^\/admin\//">
# Your expiry directives
</If>
If you know the exact URL then you can try this pattern.
RewriteRule ^facebook/get/(.*)?$ http://$1 [NC,R]
RewriteRule ^wrapper/share/(.*)?$ http://example.com/wrapper/share/$1 [NC,R]
This will check for URL where <-any-value->facebook/get/<-any-value2-> and then will send to the <-any-value2->
Like
RewriteRule ^stats/(.*)$ admin/dashboard.php?mode=openstats&event_id=$1 [NC,L,QSA]
**If URL has stats/<--any-value--> then it will redirect/open admin/dashboard.php **
If your URLs doesn't have exact value but you do know the URL slot pattern then you can try this.
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ wrapper/index.php?id=$2 [NC,L,QSA]
I have a website built on codeigniter and am trying to get the PP IPN working with it. I have looked at a few CI specific libraries, but want to have a stand alone IPN file.
Basically, I have CI installed in the website root and I have another directory 'pp', also in the root.
I'm trying to test the IPN using Paypal's sandbox, but it's returning a 404, I also can't access the file directly.
Here is my .htaccess file:
XSendFile on
Options -Indexes
Options +FollowSymlinks
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
### Canonicalize codeigniter URLs
RewriteRule ^(index(/index)?|index(\.php)?)/?$ / [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/index/?$ $1 [L,R=301]
# Removes trailing slashes (prevents SEO duplicate content issues)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ $1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.net/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|pp|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
# Without mod_rewrite, route 404's to the front controller
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>
Here's hoping it's something really obvious!
Thanks,
Ryan
If the pp directory exists, you could just put an htaccess file in that directory and just have:
RewriteEngine On
in it by itself, and any rules in the main htaccess file would get ignored. If your paypal stuff already has rewrite rules in an htaccess file in the pp directory, you may want to look into those rules as the cause of the 404.
Do you have mod_rewrite.c enabled. If not, that .htaccess will always give 404. (Sorry I couldn't make this a comment, don't have the rep).
i'm trying to remove a certain string ".html" from our urls
current example url:

any help would be appreciated
You don't need to use htaccess to do this.
Magento has an option in the back end to add these suffixes. It's .html by default.
This article goes through how to change it:
http://php.quicoto.com/how-to-remove-html-from-magento/
There is a simple option provided by Magento to remove .html from Category and Product URLs.
You don't need to any thing with .htaccess.
Go to System --> Configuration
Then Click on Catalog in Left Menu.
Then under "Search Engine Optimizations" tab, remove ".html" from "Product URL Suffix" and "Category URL Suffix".
Click on "Save Config" button.
Note: If you want you can set any other suffix for these entries.
