We are redoing our website and we have removed / renamed a few old pages. I was wondering if I can do 301 redirect for removed / renamed pages without having to actually create them? To explain with an example:
On old website : www.domain.com/mypage.php
On new website: www.domain.com/mynewpage.php
I created a 301 redirect in .htaccess redirecting mypage.php to www.domain.com/mynewpage.php without physically creating "mypage.php" file. When I access "www.domain.com/mypage.php", I get a 404 page not found error. When I create a blank "mypage.php", the redirection works fine.
Is it possible to do a 301-redirect without having to create old files ?
I hired a full time web designer to help me create the site but I'm wondering what else I'm missing.
I'm guessing I'm going to need a high end dedicated server with an 100mb unmetered port? How much space should I be looking for? The file size is going to be limited to 150mb per download and if the files have not been downloaded in 2 weeks they will be deleted. What type of HDD space should I be looking for?
I have a number of WordPress, Drupal, Wiki sites running under RHEL6.

We are subject to internal scans by Appscan and Tenable. It is a security requirement so I cannot just block them.
The scanners, of course, attempt to recurse the directory structure and find vulnerable files such as boot.ini, winnt.com and such.
This drives the php content management systems nuts. Request comes in and is handled by php. PHP checks the cache for that name and does not find it. PHP generates a MySQL query and sends it. MySQL tries and fails to satisfy the query. MySQL returns result to php. PHP Writes a cached of the result and presents it to the web.
In other words, a whole lot of processor/memory.
The security scans typically look like......
[Thu Aug 29 00:35:15 2013] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] Invalid URI in request GET /../../../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd HTTP/1.1 [Thu Aug 29 00:35:15 2013] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] Invalid URI in request GET ../../../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd HTTP/1.1 [Thu Aug 29 00:35:15 2013] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] Invalid URI in request GET //../../../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd HTTP/1.1 [Thu Aug 29 00:32:26 2013] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] Invalid URI in request GET ....................windowswin.ini HTTP/1.1 [Thu Aug 29 00:32:26 2013] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] Invalid URI in request GET ....................winntwin.ini HTTP/1.1
I have been able to improve performance, speed and security by mod_rewrite
RewriteRule .*.(dll|ini|exe|com)$ - [R=404,NC]
Now (Finally) the question.
I have not been able to create a rule for the directory recursion.
I want to R=404 any that has a "../.." or "...." or ...." but I can not get it to recognize the string correctly.
I believe that this would improve speed and security.
i manage linux apache webserver with a few wordpress blogs and from time to time i see someone inject a malicious .php file into wp-content/uploads/2014/10/ directory.
i think its some bad plugin or theme, but these is more blogs, i ugrade, update, WP, but
how can i setup some monitor to tell me which php file (or even line in php file) injected that malicious .php ? I have linux root access so i can setup anything
I'm using PHP cURL with the Plesk API to dynamically create Subscriptions. The problem I'm having is that the Apache server tends to reset before the response is returned, ultimately interrupting the connection.
I found a Plesk setting to define the Apache restart interval. I set it to 120 seconds, which I thought solved the issue, but I'm still having unreliable connection issues.
The request to create/remove a subscription always completes, but it's the response that I'm struggling to have returned.
I have just upgraded my website, and set 301 redirects for all old pages.
But on the old website I used a search engine, and in Google Webmaster there are loads of 404 pages with search queries. They look like this: [URL] ....
Simply redirecting search.php doesn't work, so I guess I need to use a wildcard?
I'm using a .htaccess file to redirect only example.com/script-dir/index.php (with www and without) to example.com/index.php, but it also redirects example.com/script-dir/index.php?page=faq and other pages.
What should I do to redirect only that single page?
I'm having trouble getting a Redirect to work. I'm doing a remake of an old site that I did over 10 years ago and I'm going to need to do a lot of redirects once I change over, but I wanted to test it out to make sure I know what I'm doing before I get rid of the old site. My current old site is www.antstuff.net. I will be keeping the same domain when I change, but it's current url naming system is different from the program I use now (Joomla). It's current url syntax goes like: www.antstuff.net/html/ant_farm.html Whereas the remade Joomla site will simply be www.antstuff.net/ant-farms . I don't want to lose all of my inbound links so I'll need to redirect every old page to the new pages right?I wanted to test it first to see if I could get a redirect to work so I added a line to my .htaccess just to try and redirect from one page to another.
Nothing happens. It does not redirect to a different page at all.Also, there is a bunch of other crap in my .htaccess file that has built up over the years. Could that mess anything up?
Update: Interesting thing happened. When I went to submit this post, I got an error that said that there is a redirect in the url that I entered, please use the destination url instead. So I removed the line of code from my .htaccess before submitting. Nevertheless, nothing happens when visit that particular page. It's supposed to transfer me to the other page right?
I have joomla installed on root folder and another joomla installed on subfolder. I want to redirect www to non in subfolder by this code in blog htaccess:
Issue: Upgraded to Apache 2.4.4 and Tomcat 7.0.33. Accessing the website via HTTPS produces "Object not found" error. The error logs (server,tomcat,apache) show no errors. It was working with Apache 2.2
Server OS: Windows 2008 Apache: version 2.4.4 Tomcat: version 7.033 JRE: version 1.6.0_43 Httpd.conf
... and nothing works. My webserver gets hosed, and my otherwise working system gives me an error when I try to get a page from it. I am, by the way, using Mac 10.6.8, with Apache 2.2 on both server and client.
I have lan computer running apache2. It doesn't have access to the internet. Is there a way to redirect all website requests to the website located /var/www/ ? So if a user is on the network and trys to goto www.google.com it will redirect them to /var/www/index.html.
I have a simple app where i am currently downloading some images from the internet. I want to use a local web server to host some of these images when i am not connected to the internet. I installed the apache web server and added the images folder under htdocs - my document root.
Now, i want something like when i continue to query images from www.examplesite.com/xyzimage.png within my app, it should be redirected to localhost/images. Is this possible? I tried doing this
In C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetchosts i added this line URL:...
to: /some-product-name (e.g. /ichiban-fairly-offensive-sweat-in-grey)
We have 1,090 products and 60+ categories so some form of .htaccess trick would be amazing to know. What I could put in the .htaccess to accomplish this.
What I want to do is this: The URL is like somedomain.sub.com/somepage/s1/s2The index.php is accessible from somedomain.sub.com/somepage/I want to send s1/s2 as $_GET['page']
Also, I don't want the URL in the address bar to change, only the url sent to the server should change. This worked well in my localhost, but on webserver (0fees.net), it doesn't work ...
I've just joined the group and new to Apache/php. I have just assembled a website in Joomla/vertumart and called petslovezone.com.au. I want to redirect all the request such as
1. http://xyz.com to https://xyz.com 2. http://www.xyz.com to https://xyz.com 3. xyz.com. to https://xyz.com 4. www.xyz.com to https://xyz.com
now know I have to change .htaccess "RewriteEngine On" section. What would be the best code to do all the above.
One site just linked to my website with incorrect URL as URL.. want to correct this by redirecting the URL to URL.... Therefore, I add the following line in my .htaccess, as follows: Redirect 301 /aor/%e2%80%9d URL...
However, this does not work. When I input URL... in Firefox or IE, the browser still said the page not found(404) error.
