yii, Development and URL issues - .htaccess

We have our server which runs the site at 173......54/
For development we want to have a copy of the code that can be tested at 173.....54/~me/site
When I install a copy of Yii and the code at ~me/ folder and access 173.....54/~me/site I am able
to see the newly installed index html. However, if I try to move to 173.....54/~me/site/book or a user register page or any other page the other (main) Yii application reads the code as a link not found instead of the development Yii application.
Am I supposed to update a the htaccess file to ignore requests within /~me ? If so how should it look? Or am I missing something?
Thanks again!

No need to make ignore in other .htaccess, the dev site .htaccess will take care of it.
In your index.php at the root of your dev site you need to point $yii at your Yii framework/yii.php
and then in the .htaccess in the root of your dev site you need to point RewriteBase to your dev site root.

Also make sure you point to the correct configuration file corresponding with your application in index.php

Exclude a folder in Xenforo

I have installed Xenforo in my public_html in my Cpanel which means my forum is available in site.com
Now I want to add another folder contains my web app and want to access it in site.com/myapp. I created a folder "myapp" in public_htmll beside Xenforo files and now when I enter the URL site.com/myapp it goes to a 404 page of the forum. I need to Xenforo exclude this folder and let the app lunch in this address. How can I do that?
You should move your XenForo installation to a subdirectory - many people use site.com/community as the forum root and either have a separate home page at site.com/ or just redirect the domain root to the /community URL.
This then allows you to have other apps running in other subdirectories like site.com/myapp without issue.
In XenForo 2.x this works fine, If you have enabled full Seo friendly urls from admin panel, Make sure you have proper .htaccess file in place. In you case, I believe you did not upload .htaccess file in public_html folder

I don't have .htaccess file for my magento installation. How to get .htaccess file to remove the "index.php" from URL

I don't have my .htaccess file for my magento installation which is by default present for all the fresh magento installation.
Now I have to remove "index.php" from my wesite url and found out htaccess file needs to be edited. But, there is no .htaccess file in my magento root folder.
Also, I have made a lot of changes to the website and don't want to do a fresh installation to get the .htaccess file.
Also, when I access my admin panel it also needs "index.php" in the URL.
Please, can someone help me with this.
To Remove the inde.php from the URL you need to enable Web Server Rewrites.
You can enable Web Server Rewrites suing below steps:
Login in Backend, from Top Navigation click on System >> Configuration >> Web
Select Use Web Server Rewrites to YES in Search Engines Optimization group.
If you need .htaccess file, you can donwload the compatible magento zip file and can use its .htaccess. There is no need to install magento for this.

Why PhpStorm doesn't using htaccess file?

I have an .htaccess file for page redirecting. It works fine in wampserver, but in phpstorm, it doesn't work and phpstorm doesn't use .htaccess.
For example, this works in wampserver:
localhost/Example/Page
This doesn't work in phpstorm:
localhost:63342/Example/Page
// 404 Not Found
Any thoughts on this problem?
.htaccess is used by the Apache webserver. It's not used by the PHPStorm web-browser though. If you want to be able to use it there, you would want to setup the 'Web path for project root' and point it to the appropriate location, as set in an Apache vhost.

How do I build multi sites in magento using wamp server

I am new to magento, I have worked on VirtueMart for joomla for a year now and I noticed it has no multistore ability until a friend introduced me to magento. I have succesfully installed magento(1.7.0.2) into WAMP 2.2 (PHP v5.3.13) on my Windows7.
I succesfully created root categories just as directed here: http://www.templatemonster.com/help/magento-how-to-set-up-and-manage-multiple-stores.html but in my own case, I am using sub-directories (ie //domain/magento as main store and //domain/magento/crunchies as store2).
A root category was created at the backend for crunchies. I copied both index.php and htaccess from magento folder (c:/wamp/www/magento) to crunchies folder (c:/wamp/www/magento/crunchise).on the crunchies' copy of index.php, $mageFilenam =‘app/Mage.php’; I change it to $mageFilename=‘../app/Mage.php’;
And saved changes, I also open up the copied htaccess file and added the following to the end of it:
SetEnvIf Host.*MainWebsite.*MAGE_RUN_CODE= base";
SetEnvIfHost .*www.crunchies.com.*MAGE_RUN_TYPE="cruncies_code";
Where website names created at System>manage store of backend are: Main Website(for main store) and www.crunchies.com (for store2).
When I point to domain/magento on my browser, it shows home page but when I point to domain/magento/crunchies, I get :\"mydirectery"../app/Mage.php was not found.
Please how do I solve this issue? Is there any other setting I'm missing out in my wamp config?

.htaccess redirect to subdirectory on Verio windows server

I've been trying to get a website up an running on my work's servers using Verio windows server 2003 gold and they've been quite useless when it comes to helping me out.
All I'm trying to do is set up a Wordpress installation, which they apparently require to be in a subdirectory. This is done and I have it in domain.com/wp ready to go. At this point they recommend that I use an .htaccess file to redirect to that url, so as they just sent me basically an "About .htaccess" link, that was of no help.
Did some searching, found a couple options like this one:
http://www.site5.com/blog/apache/htaccess/redirect-to-blog/20090427/
and nothing I use seems to work, not even as a straight redirect. Just gives me a "Directory Listing Denied - This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed."
I do want to mention I did enable URL Rewrite for IIS via ISAPI_Rewrite 3 in the control panel.
As I mentioned Verio support is useless and I can't seem to find anything searching that seems to help my situation.
So pretty much what I need is domain.com/wp to rewrite as domain.com so all links centered around it do the same (ie domain.com/about domain.com/contact)
Any help? Thanks
If I understand you correct you need your Wordpress application to be available from the root of your web site instead of /wp/ folder? Then please try following .htaccess:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(?!wp/)(.*) /wp/$1 [NC]
By the way I think you could try simply copying /wp/ folder content to the root folder.
