Redirecting Forum From Subdomain To Subdirectory
Apr 25, 2009
We are wanting to move our forum from a subdomain where it lies currently to a subdirectory of the main site.
I know that this could be done via htacess, but I am wanting to make sure that we don.t lose any of the backlinks that we have coming in, or any page rankings that we have accumulated.
I have a htaccess rule, but I guess I need to know if
a) it is Correct
b) where to put it
Now please bear with me as I cant post urls, so this bit is quite difficult to get out... I have replaced the link elements with CAPPS, such as www becomes 3WS
Options +FollowSymLinks -Indexes
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}!^3WS. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*).DOMAINHERE.TLD [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) HTTPCOLONSLASHSLASHDOMAINGOESHEREWITHTLD/%1/$1 [R=301,L]
Do i still need to point the subdomain at a folder with just this in, and then have a separate folder where the actual forum goes....
or do I put this in the htaccess, then also point at the directory to be the location for the /forum/

On most servers using a vhost you can make a subdomain point to a subdirectory.
so www.host.com/stuff would be stuff.host.com
That works fine for me. I now want to avoid people being to access the www.host.com/stuff and always have to go via the subdomain.
If I create a rewrite rule I'll get an infinite loop as the subdomain and subdirectory will keep on going to each other.
What is the proper way of disabling access via the subdirectory?

Is it possible to use .htaccss to remove the subdirectory from a url? The reason I ask it that the script I want to use requires members to be in a /users/ directory, and I would like to remove that part of the url. For instance...
can I use .htaccess to change www.thewebsite.com/users/username
to www.thewebsite.com/username
I have absolutely no need to access the /users/ directory without the username, it's just that all accounts are created in that directory.
Is it possible?

I'm currently trying to set up a an old Project Management System we developed in house to be able to be run from a subdirectory (currently it is designed to run from the DocumentRoot). I figured I would be able to just throw together some mod_rewrite rules to be able to rewrite all requests to the subdirectory, but still haven't had any luck.
I'm pretty good with regular expressions, just not alot of experience with mod_rewrite.
Here's the idea I'm going for
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sub
RewriteRule (.*) /sub/$1
The PMS is littered with header redirects and stuff, so it'd be nice to be able to do it all from an .htaccess file or httpd.conf (if necassary).

Wordpress installation (WPML with 3rd level domain es. site. com, fr. site. com).
I need to redirect page from subdomain to a new subdomain
Example:
esp.site.com/oldpage -> es.site.com/newpage (different subdomain)
esp.site.com/oldpage1 -> es.site.com/newpage
esp.site.com/oldpage2 -> es.site.com/newpage
Source site is very chaotic and there are no clear rule for redirection (no regex )
So I need to redirect every page but syntax:
Redirect 301 esp.site.com/oldpage http:// es.site.com/newpage
doesn't work!
which is the correct syntax ?
Can I manage all from one .htaccess file in main root (www) or should I create "esp" directory (and point old subdomain to it - one for every language) and put .htaccess in every directory with redirection ?Â

This url:
live.sitening.com
Goes to:
s3.amazonaws.com
What i am wondering is how they do it. I want to do the same thing. I know about redirecting in .htaccess. But this doesn't look like a simple redirect.

Anyone know of a service that will allow an IP listed in "A record" to be redirected.
I have a client who has office based mail servers and some remote applications running and because of this their IT company has the nameservers. The NS entries cannot be changed
When I need to change A records, I then have to call the IT company, what I am hoping to achieve is have IT company set A record to xxx.xx.xx.xx and I can direct that to zz.zzz.zz.zz and change as needed.

I'm trying to redirect all people who go to [url]to [url]
I've got this but it doesn't do anything: (and I did verify that the .htaccess works, as
I added garbage text and tested and got an error).
Code:
Options +Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mydomain.com/directory/$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url]

I have been trying for more than an hour to figure that out , but nothing....
I want to perform 2 types of redirects on my webpage/forum
I want all non-www to move to www.mysite.com/forums
and I also want the www.mysite.com to redirect to the /forums one...
All of those with WWW
I can make each work alone, but not these 2 together....

I'm currently using this in my .htaccess:
Code:
RewriteEngine On
rewritecond %[url]
rewriteRule ^(.*) [url]
I have this in my root (public_html) folder. However when you go to [url]
it redirects you to [url]
I'm already in the root. Why would it try to go to public_html/public_html?
What's the correct implementation of this .htaccess?

I've got a two domains (.com and .co.uk) at 123-reg and I've just got some new hosting. At the moment the .com points to the new hosting. How do I get the .co.uk to point there are well? The options I can find are changing nameservers (still don't understand this...) or to use web-forwarding.

I have this as my .htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule !(index.php) [url][L]
</IfModule>
It works in every way as desired.
Any url, [url]whatever will show up [url]
From index.php then I can create php generated websites that take pics, whatever from database.
However, I got an idea. What about if several domain names use the same index.php and the same database. So, it's like mirrors.
If I put the same .htaccess in other domain name, I got something unexpected though.
The url location actually change to [url]
Also the content of
PHP Code:
echo 'Server:' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . "
";
echo 'Host:' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . "
";
echo 'Request:' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
also change to domain.com, and /index.php?languageIndicator=lang_ar
I want an implicit redirect. Not an explicit redirect. To the outside world, people must think that they're indeed accessing http://otherdomainame.com/somepages and has no way to know that the page they're looking is http://domain.com/index.php?languageIndicator=lang_ar
How can I do that?
Of course, I can always copy index.php to all my domain names. But that's slow.

I have set up Apache as a SSL front end for our web applications deployed in GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Open Source Edition, how can I keep the original URL displayed in the web browser address bar unchanged after redirecting via Rewrite / ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse
Reference 1:
RewriteEngine On
# If the request URL does not start with a slash (/), prepend it.
RewriteRule ^([^/].*)$ /$1 [E=redirect:y,N]
# If the request URL starts with more than one slash (/), keep only the first one.
RewriteRule ^//+(.*)$ /$1 [E=redirect:y,N]

I came across a problematic situation today. Our client pmb.com.my has complained that their domain, when accessed from search engines will go to another site, not theirs. So, perhaps you guys can try this out.
1. Type the URL on the browser directly: [url]
You'll get the real site.
2. Try searching for "pmb malaysia" on Google:
[url]
3. You should see a normal listing for the site as the 1st result. Try clicking that link.
4. In our checks, it will go to a landing page (black bankground), and will redirect to an adult site.
5. You get this landing page too when you click the link to the site in step 1.
Appreciate if more people can try this out and post your findings here. I've contacted the RZ (site hosted there), and they said it is an issue with Google's cache. Not sure I buy that.

I keep hearing that redirecting from http to https is not very secure [non-SSL to SSL]. Among other reasons, one reason is that the browser may continue to think it is communicating with non secure server and may not encrypt the data. Is it true? I hope not, I am using the following -
<VirtualHost 12.34.567.89:80>
ServerName www.mysite1234.com:80
Redirect / https://www.mysite1234.com/
</VirtualHost>

Say I have two domains: example.com and example.net.
Upon a http request to example.com, I wish to redirect to https://example.com.
Upon either a http or https request to example.net, I wish to redirect to https://example.com.
Note that for both cases, subdomains should also be redirected, and the change should be considered permanent.
I've seem multiple ways to do so. What is the best way? How do I deal with subdomains when there is a new domain such as example.net to example.com?
I've taken a stab. How to fill in the gaps?

I have a question regarding status pages. Whilst setting up a new website, upgrading forum scripts etc what is the best way to redirect users?
I would like myself and one other person to have access to run the tasks, however I would like to redirect visitors to the website to a standby page whilst we are doing this.
What is the best method? .htaccess? IP based?

I must say that I tried a lot of possibilities but my knowledgment in Apache WS is not too much advanced.
Apache Web Server version: 2.2.22
OS: Centos 6 64 bits
Tomcat version: 7.0.57
What I need to achieve is the following:
I have some plain websites defined this way:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin example1@example1.com
DocumentRoot "/opt/sites/example1/"
ServerName example1.com
ErrorLog logs/example1-error_log
CustomLog logs/example1-access_log common
RedirectMatch permanent ^/(.*) http://www.example1.com/$1

A few months ago we had upgraded our server from Win 2k3 with Plesk 8.6 to Win 2k8 with Plesk 11.5.30 migrating all the domains. After migrating, all the domains are working fine, but when trying to access the control panel using a specific user we get always the error "the page isn't redirecting properly" in different browsers, login in with Admin user it works perfect, or even with a different domain user.
Tried already to change the subscription to a different owner and get it back, it didn't work neither on the different owner or the original one.
Tried also:
"%plesk_bin%"websrvmng.exe --configure-anonymous-access
"%plesk_bin%"websrvmng.exe --remove-sites-cache
"%plesk_bin%"websrvmng.exe --configure-plesk-website
When I get this error, the address bar always changes to https://server-ip.com:8443/smb/
I may guess that when migrating this domain, user roles where not upgraded correctly
