What to put into .htaccess to (re)direct incoming traffic to ...

RedFox · 2012-01-12 09:21:37

… a subdirectory (folder) called www.something.nl … !?

Moving a new site from sub to root I did overwrite the existing .htaccess file … stupid me. Now two redirects doesn’t work anymore and I don’t know anything about this kind of .htaccess stuff.

The two subdirectories on the server are www.duodyade.nl and www.harp-duo.nl … because of my action these two domains will now be linked to the root e.g. www.marijevijselaar.nl

Or to put it in another way: originally the domain www.duodyade.nl was forwarded to http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyade.nl … not anymore, because of overwriting the .htaccess file on the root www.marijevijselaar.nl. Does anyone know what kind of rules I’ve to put into the .htaccess file to restore the redirect?

[edit]
I did a post at stackoverflow too (I’m in a hurry!) > http://stackoverflow.com/…

#DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
#Options +FollowSymLinks
#Options -Indexes
#ErrorDocument 403 default
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
	RewriteEngine On
	#RewriteBase /relative/web/path/
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
	RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L]
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
	RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
	RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization}  !^$
	RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
#from stackoverflow > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8834245/redirect-domain-to-a-subfolder-of-another-domain:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.duodyade\.nl$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nl$1 [P]
</IfModule>
#php_value register_globals 0

… but it gives a 404 page … :(

Similar to the answer you got at SO, try:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.duodyade\.nl$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nl$1 [R=301,L]

BTW, if I go here:

www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nl

or here:

www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nl/

I got a 404.

Is there a /www.duodyde.nl/ subfolder in the root of the website?

Hi @maniqui … thanks for helping me. We are almost there, I think, but your set of rules gives: http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nlindex.php … and so an error-default page!

BTW … the homepage is an index.html file!

[edit]
And yes … www.duodyade.nl is a folder and a subdirectory of marijevijselaar.nl

I see now it’s redirecting from

http://www.duodyde.nl

to

http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nlindex.php

Put the new rule after the #RewriteBase /relative/web/path/ and before the TXP rules.

Sorry, it doesn’t work! I still get this url: http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nlindex.php

Mmmmm.
Before going on, check that your rules and mines said “duodyde” instead of “duodyade”.

maniqui · 2012-01-12 12:36:38

I see this is the correct location we are trying to redirect to:

www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyade.nl/

maniqui · 2012-01-12 12:37:33

I’m getting a 404 at www.duodyade.nl/

It does now … but it stil gives an error-default!

http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyade.nl/ is working fine here!

I see it’s working fine now.
www.duodyade.nl redirects to www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyade.nl/

So, what was the issue? (it may help others!)

RedFox · 2012-01-12 13:02:49

?? … because it’s not working (here) … www.duodyade.nl redirects to http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyde.nlindex.php … and gives an error page!

Encore the .htaccess:

#DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
#Options +FollowSymLinks
#Options -Indexes
#ErrorDocument 403 default
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
	RewriteEngine On
	#RewriteBase /relative/web/path/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.duodyade\.nl$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.marijevijselaar.nl/www.duodyade.nl$1 [R=301,L]
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
	RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L]
	RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
	RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
	RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization}  !^$
	RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>
#php_value register_globals 0
