Situation
I'm using Zend framework, and thus attempt to call the folder by address ends in a fiasco and we gets the error: 'Invalid controller specified'. I needed to hook up additional forum to application in a separate folder. I change .htaccess file as follow:
RewriteRule ^forum(.*)$ forum$1 [L]
and for a while it was good, until I realized the fact that the page exists in two versions in two domains (php recognizes domain [.pl/.co.uk] and selects the language). So I decided to separate forums as a two separate modules (for example, the folder for Polish version forum will be: forum_pl, and for UK it will be: forum_uk - two different forums)
What's the problem?
It needs to rewrite .htaccess file to work like this:
IF: www.domena.pl/forum
THEN: open to the script from the folder /forum_pl
IF: www.domain.co.uk/forum
THEN: open to the script from the folder /forum_uk.
The worst thing is that when I tried to fix .htaccess file adding RewriteCond then the first redirect no longer work correctly, even after returning to the original (shown above) version.
Please help me and sorry if I did not find answers already given earlier.
EDIT:
First working solution
RewriteRule ^forum_pl(.*)$ forum_pl$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^forum_uk(.*)$ forum_uk$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domena.pl(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum(.*)$ forum_pl$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.co.uk(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum(.*)$ forum_uk$1 [L]
It's look like it wants to work but, problems that needs solution is (TODO):
When you type: www.domain.pl/forum it gets you to www.domain.pl/forum_pl/ but if you type: www.domain.pl/forum/ it gets you to www.domain.pl/forum/ (read from forum_pl). How to make that it works in first situation same, as in second.
EDIT:
My last solution:
#FORUM
#PL
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/forum$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ forum/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^forum_pl(.*)$ forum_pl$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/forum_pl(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domena.pl/forum/ [R=301,L] #Dosen't work properly (?)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domena.pl(.*) [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/forum(/?)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum[^/](.*)$ forum_pl/$1 #Dosen't work properly, but without it crash!
RewriteRule ^forum(.*)$ forum_pl$1 [L]
#UK
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/forum_uk(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.co.uk/forum/ [R=301,L] #Dosen't work properly (?)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.co.uk(.*) [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/forum(/?)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum[^/](.*)$ forum_uk/$1 #Dosen't work properly, but without it crash!
RewriteRule ^forum(.*)$ forum_uk$1 [L]
Final, working version:
RewriteRule ^forum_pl(.*)$ forum_pl$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^forum_uk(.*)$ forum_uk$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^forum_pl(.*)$ http://www.domena.pl/forum$1 [R=301,L] # Not working!
RewriteRule ^forum_uk(.*)$ http://www.domain.co.uk/forum$1 [R=301,L] # Not working!
# Normalize URL first:
RewriteRule ^forum$ forum/ [R=301,L]
# redirect to polish version of web under forum_pl if on .pl TLD and
# request is made to /forum/ (already normalized)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =www.domena.pl [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum(.*)$ forum_pl$1 [L]
# redirect to english version of web under forum_en in on .uk TLD and
# request is made to /forum/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =www.domain.co.uk [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum(.*)$ forum_uk$1 [L]
It is a pity that you can call from your browser forum_uk and forum_pl folders manually.
Not sure if I oriented correctly in your long question with some evolution :-)
Lets try this:
# Normalize URL first:
RewriteRule ^forum$ forum/ [R=301,L]
# redirect to polish version of web under forum_pl if on .pl TLD and
# request is made to /forum/ (already normalized)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =www.domena.pl [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum/(.*)$ http://www.domena.pl/forum_pl/$1 [R=301,L]
# redirect to english version of web under forum_en in on .uk TLD and
# request is made to /forum/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} =www.domain.co.uk [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum/(.*)$ http://www.domain.co.uk/forum_uk/$1 [R=301,L]
If you need the rewites to act differently, let me know

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]

RewriteRule ^offer/(.*) product_offer.php?ind=$1
RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?([^/\.]*)/?$ $1.php [QSA,L]
Here, am forcing non-www url as well as forcing https URL for the thesite.com. And I have two subdomains: m.thesite.com and blog.thesite.com.
Both are in separate subfolders inside public_html.
The m.thesite.com is in /public_html/m.thesite.com/ folder. And it has this htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.m\.thesite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ 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 have built a multilingual site in Joomla! 3.1.x Dutch and English, using the multilingual functions native to Joomla! 3.1.x. I have two domain names that I want to go to this site, one to the Dutch side, the other to the English side.
http://www.internationalerozekerk.nl
http://www.internationallgbtchurch.org
Number 1 should go to: index.php?lang=nl
Number 2 should go to: index.php?lang=en
In the .htaccess I have added this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^internationallgbtchurch.org [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) ^internationalerozekerk.nl/index.php?lang=en$1 [L,R=301]
This redirects the English URL to internationalerozekerk.nl/index.php?lang=en. However, the address bar still reads: internationalerozekerk.nl/index.php?lang=en and not internationallgbtchurch.org
I haven't found anything to make the two URLs stay in the address bar.
Any suggestions?
Thanx,
Thom
You can use these rules instead for internal redirects:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?internationallgbtchurch\.org$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ /index.php?lang=en [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?internationalerozekerk\.nl$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ /index.php?lang=nl [L,QSA]
Reference: Apache mod_rewrite Introduction
Try removing the hostname and the R flag and remove the $1.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^internationallgbtchurch.org [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?lang=en [L,QSA]
For the other site:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^internationallgbtchurch.nl [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?lang=nl [L,QSA]
Adding the $1 at the end appends the request URI, which will completely mess up the query string. If you want the path to be sent as another param, then you need to be explicit about it (for example, "path"):
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^internationallgbtchurch.org [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?lang=en&path=$1 [L,QSA]
I have this link: http://www.domain.com.mk/lajmi.php?id=2790,
and i want to change it to http://www.domain.com.mk/lajmi/2790
With this code I can change the link to /lajmi/2790 but i get 404 error.
I mean i get the link
http://www.domain.com.mk/lajmi/2790, but it has 404 error (i dont se the content)
This is my code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com\.mk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.com\.mk$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([0-9]*)$
RewriteRule ^lajmi\.php$ http://domain.com.mk/lajmi/%1? [R=302,L]
What I am doing wrong ?
Try this one :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com\.mk$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(\d*)$
RewriteRule ^lajmi\.php$ http://domain.com.mk/lajmi/%1? [R=302,L]
RewriteRule ^lajmi/(\d*)$ lajmi.php?id=$1&r=0 [L]
(the &r=0 in the final rule is for not getting an infinite loop)
Single direction rewrite:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com\.mk$
RewriteRule ^lajmi/(\d*)$ lajmi.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
This means that every uri of kind /lajmi/2790 will be passed to /lajmi.php?id=2790 in a sub-request.
However, in this case, if the user hits /lajmi.php?id=2790 by himself, then this is the url he will see in the browser, not the "beautified one".
Bi-directional rewrite:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
; Redirect lajmi.php?id=2790 to a beutified version, but only if not in sub-request!
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com\.mk$
RewriteCond %{IS_SUBREQ} !=true
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(\d*)$
RewriteRule ^lajmi\.php$ lajmi/%1 [R=301,L]
; Make the beutified uri be actually served by lajmi.php
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com\.mk$
RewriteRule ^lajmi/(\d*)$ lajmi.php?id=$1 [L]
Here, an additional RewriteCond was added to the first rule checking that this is not a sub-request, to ensure that the rules do not loop.
You can pick which way you like, but the first approach is enough if you build the links in your HTML in the 'beautified' way already (no need to redirect the browser twice just to see the page).
Note: I had to add spaces because it thought I was posting links...
I have two sites coming into one server and one folder (foo.com and bar.com).
Foo.com needs to point at a page named foo.htm under the root of the site.
It also has the requirement of not changing the URL.
If the url is bar.com it needs to be left alone.
If the full url is http://www.foo.com/ it needs to be switched to the equivalent of
http://bar.com/foo.htm
Does that make sense?
I have the following which works for every page except the root page, which isn't redirecting to foo.htm.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^foo\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.bar.com/$1
RewriteRule ^$ /foo.htm [L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^foo\.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?$
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.bar.com/foo.htm [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^foo\.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.bar.com/$1
I'm not sure if it will run exactly like this as I can't test it - but if it doesn't work, just modify the regex in RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .... possibly remove the slash and question mark... just try it.
Another edition to my .htaccess rewriting saga. Everything is now working to a degree but still have some issues.
I have numerous rules to move old urls to new urls, passing variables etc - however there are still a couple of things i need to add, and for the life of me cannot figure out.
I have 3 urls that are directing/rewriting as below.
1 www.mydomain.com/news/dentistry_dental/index.php
2 www.mydomain.com/news/dentistry_dental/index.php?month=April&year=2011
3 www.mydomain.com/news/dentistry_dental/article_detail.php?article=1234&title=some-title
These are redirected & rewritten perfectly to the new urls respectively
1 www.mydomain.com/dental_news/
2 www.mydomain.com/dental_news/April-2011
3 www.mydomain.com/dental_news/1234-some-title
However... Here is the problem #1 The following urls are also redirecting as below
4 www.mydomain.com/news/it_technology/index.php?month=April&year=2011
5 www.mydomain.com/news/it_technology/article_detail.php?article=1234&title=some-title
Which are also directing to the same urls as the dental redirects
4 www.mydomain.com/dental_news/April-2011
5 www.mydomain.com/dental_news/1234-some-title
Which shouldnt be happening. The it_technology news articles have now been removed so i wish to redirect them either to my homepage with a 410 or something similar, whichever is the best option really.
My current .htaccess looks as follows.

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f

My only other requirement would be to add a trailing slash to the php files served ( that have allready add the .php extension removed with the last rule in my .htaccess.
I have tried numerous ways that i have found via google, but all of them cuase probelms with my other rules.
Hopefully someone can help me finish this off once and for all.

Sure is getting complicated :) Try changing these lines (I think there are 2):
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/dental_news/
to:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/news/dentistry_dental/
That way its only going to redirect the old dental news URLs to there respective new ones.
Trivially, your problem is the catch-all rules:
#Conditional rewrite of old news article path to new one with 301 redirect
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/dental_news/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} article=([0-9]*)&title=([^&]*)$
RewriteRule (.*) /dental_news/%1-%2? [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/dental_news/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} month=([^&]*)&year=([^&]*)$
RewriteRule (.*) /dental_news/%1-%2? [R=301]
Restrict them to the path you want to rewrite, i.e. replace .* with something more specific, like:
#Conditional rewrite of old news article path to new one with 301 redirect
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/dental_news/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} article=([0-9]*)&title=([^&]*)$
RewriteRule ^news/dentistry_dental/index.php$ /dental_news/%1-%2? [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/dental_news/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} month=([^&]*)&year=([^&]*)$
RewriteRule ^news/dentistry_dental/index.php$ /dental_news/%1-%2? [R=301]
You can do the news/it_technology redirect as a standard redirect.
RewriteRule ^news/it_technology http://www.thepage.com/ [R=301,L]
It might technically be more correct to do a 410, but the 410 code is really optional. You might also want to make it 404, and then have a link from the 404 page to the main page.
