My .htaccess file:
When I access the directory alone I get a 404 page cannot be displayed error on my live server. On my local server it works all perfectly. When I directly access index.php it works ok.Code:RewriteEngine On RewriteRule !(^skins/.*|^html/.*)$ index.php
Anyone ?
Access which directory? And what version of Apache are you running and what version is your host running?
I am not sure as of yet, asking him.
THis is the dorectory & file tree:
intranet
--index.php
--skins
---1
----common.php
--other
I think it's 1.3.28, both on my live and local servers.
Hmm, try changing this line, think you need the flag at the end.
Didn't pick up on that the first time I read your postCode:RewriteRule !(^skins/.*|^html/.*)$ index.php [L]
The [L] flags won't solve your problems.

I think you mean that:
example.com will have a 404
example.com/index.php will work
right ?
I think you need to add this in your .htaccess
DirectoryIndex index.php

I think you need to add this in your .htaccess
DirectoryIndex index.php
http://www.example.com/skins/ <-- wont work
http://www.example.com/skins/index.php <-- will work
To be honest I can't really help, I have a little knowledge of mod_rewrite and I'm just doing my best to cover as much as I can for pippo while he's busy and can't always reply straight away. I'm just not in the same league as him, that's all...
Edit:
Unless you're using this URL
http://www.example.com/skins
that won't work as you have a trailing slash in your regex, try changing it to this and see if it helps
Code:RewriteRule !(^skins?/.*|^html?/.*)$ index.php [L]
Cam your help is really appreciated...
I encourage you to continue without worring about eventually mistakes, I'm still doing mistakes...
I think I started using mod_rewrite in 2000/2001 and It took me a lot to learn it, still learning...
Go cam go
Excerpt from reply of my host:
Didn't work though. Awaiting moreu pdates from eitherh im or you guys.Firstly, why isn't the "intranet" located in the intranet folder in the root directory? Rather you have it inside the ../forums/intranet/ .... why is this? The intranet.wildfiregames.com subdomain will never work unless you use it from wildfiregames.com/intranet... it's already setup for DNS, so you should align it to that folder.
I also noticed your .htaccess file is as follows....
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^intranet/(.*)/(.*)$ /intranet/index.php
This is not the same one you posted on SitePoint. Did you make some changes, in an effort to make it work? Also, telling it to access from /intranet/index.php would be incorrect because then you're telling it essentially to write from http://www.wildfiregames.com/intranet/ (going back one level because of the "/" ) which currently doesn't exist. Leave off the trailing slash if you intend to use wildfiregames.com/forums/intranet/.
Tim,
you should post here where you are going to use the .htaccess and what you are going to translate with mod_rewrite...
For the sake of easyness I transformed the whole thing to intranet.wildfiregames.com
The baseUrl of my PHP Pathvars class is now '/'.
I am trying to refer everything that comes in to http://intranet.wildfiregames.com/index.php
My .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^/intranet/(.*)/(.*)$ /intranet/index.php
Tried every possible combo for the mod rewrite, even absolute paths and still no success.Cann access htp://intranet.wildfiregames.com/ but not stuff like http://intranet.wildfiregames.com/task/0ad/view/webdev/.
This is starting to get on my (otherwise cool
I think I said a lot of times:
Within .htaccess never use
RewriteRule ^/etc
but use
RewriteRule ^etc
Try:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^[^.]*$ /index.php [L]
so
http://intranet.wildfiregames.com/what/you/want/
will go to
http://intranet.wildfiregames.com/index.php
The rules I wrote can be adjust more,
but I think it's a good start to play with...
Okay pippo, and where shall I ship the money ?
Wohoo! Works like perfectionism himself!!!!!!!
(sorry got a bit carried away over our evetual success
Thanks a lot man, I owe you something.
