I'm wondering why sometimes my htaccess files don't seem to work, especially when contained within subdirectories. I've got two problematic situations:
(1) I've got a mod rewrite that supposedly works. I put it in a subdirectory like /dbase/stuff/ but the script ignores it like it just isn't there. Permissions don't change anything and they are currently set to 644. It's very simple and only contains the following code: ....

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to rewrite the urls across a site I'm developing, which pass get variables like the following:
localhost/link/link1/page.php?id=12
would look like:

The first link in the htaccess file works fine, but the following ones don't (whatever the order, the first one works). I'm attaching a snippet of the file here:

There is a .htaccess~ file in the root directory of my server. .htaccess is also in that place. But what is the purpose of that .htaccess~ file?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI manage a high traffic website on one of my dedicated servers. It currently serves around 2 million uniques/mo.
In time, due to page changes, around 200 important URIs got a redirect [L,R=301] in the main .htaccess file that's sitting on the root directory.
Redirects are in the form of : person/J/James_Blake_2000/ --> /user/James_Blake/
Thus, the .htaccess file has reached well above 200 lines.
I would like to kindly ask for advice: should I limit the dimension of this htaccess file ?
How do you guys treat these permanent redirects?
I'm on a shared FreeBSD server, running Apache with Drupal, and vBulletin.
I had to create a local php.ini file in my public_html folder for Drupal, and another in my forum folder for vBulletin. Now my question is, what should I set the permissions of these files to? Also, what should I set .htaccess permissions to as well?
I'd like to keep them invisible to the public. But, I don't want any problems with Drupal, or vBulletin ether.
I'm used to using Linux and I know how permissions work on a desktop. I just don't know what they do when used on a server. I'm guessing 640, but I'd like to make sure before I change anything.
what is .htaccess file? use of this file?

View 5 Replies View RelatedSo, I would like my htaccess file to check if a file exists and if it doesn't then redirect to another file. How would I go about doing this?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have learned some bits of regular expressions for simple scripting, writing a .htaccess file is, uh, syntaxically daunting.
THE CASE :
The URLs of my site used to be of the form [URL] ... . They are now of the form [URL]......
I am trying to perma-redirect (301) the old format (affiche_fiche.php) to the new format (fiche.php) using a .htaccess.
So far all I have achieved is a hatred of punctuation signs. What's the correct syntax to have a .htaccess that does the redirect ?
THE CONTEXT : The format change took place more than six months ago, but the Google Webmaster Tools still spits 450 problems a day with 404s on URLs using the old format. I had assumed that these would just fade away, but they don't. So I guess that 301'ing them is cleaner. Or would be, if I understood the syntax.
I am using a flash media player on one of my domains that streams music. The flash player would be like domain.com/music
The mp3 files are located in domain.com/music/mp3
The flash player just reads the title of the song and displays it in the media player.
I have used htaccess already to disable indexing, but the file name that shows on the media player is the exact name of the mp3, so I'm pretty sure people will be able to easily figure this out and start downloading our music.
What else can I add to htaccess to allow localhost access to the music, to stream with the flash player, but wont allow downloading of the mp3s.
I have download manager script that I use for my customers to download products right after the purchase.
Script generates download link that looks like this:
http://www.yourwebsite.com/download/...582921B&p=1840 (where 2YY6582921B is receipt number that is different with each purchase).
All products are placed in one folder. This folder can not be seen in above download url, but can be accessed thru browser and files can be downloaded that way without paying for them.
Can I use .htaccess and if yes how, to protect all product files the way that they can not be accessed directly by visiting url thru browser (in case somebody will find the correct url), they should be allowed for access only for my download manager script.
I just want to use wget command to transfer data from a shared host to dedicated server.Anybody knows how to set wget to download the .htaccess file and keep the file/directory's permission the same as they used to be on the old server?
I only knows these:wget -b -c -r -l0 -np -nH -t0
In my personal website at URL.... I have the top like 'index.php?pg=profile', 'index.php?pg=home' or 'index.php' (without any querystring), 'index.php?pg=diary' etc. I am looking to see if I can have .htaccess file which can make me create links like
index.php/
index.php
index.php/home
index.php/profile
index.php/diary
write an .htaccess for the same?

I was trying to set up archive-my-tweets [URL] .... and I seem to have gotten stuck with a 403 error. When I remove the .htaccess file the 403 goes away but so do the rewrite rules so that's a problem.
You'll see the contained .htaccess file that's included in the project.
Basically for now I'm just trying to run this on my mac. I have set up the files in a subdirectory of my personal web server. The personal web server is working fine--but when I go to the /tweets directory I get the 403.
I added the following to my cpanel .htaccess file on my hosting account:
<FilesMatch ".pdf$">header set x-robots-tag: noindex
</FilesMatch>
This was to stop Google from crawling and indexing my PDFs, will this work accross all my addon domains and subdomains (which are wordpress) on my hosting account or do I need to take extra measure?
This post is a repeat of a 13-month old thread [url] that had no resolution. I am hoping that someone can comment on it as I am having the same exact issue.
Environment: IIS web server running windows server 2003 (runs both production and development.
Issue: When updating the CSS and then viewing the pagein a browser, changes are NOT being reflected.
Troubleshooting: Replaced file = No changes
Emptied Cache (IE, Firefox and Netscape) with Ctrl 5, closed browser window, opened new browser widow = No changes
Emptied Cache (IE) with Tools> Internet Options >, closed browser window, opened new browser widow = No changes
Checked 2 other machines (PC and Mac) = No changes
Checked multible browsers (IE6, IE7, Safari, Firefox)
Deleted file = No changes (still renders old styles even with no stylesheet on server)
Re-starting the IIS website is obviously not suitable for development (but does work).
Our IT guy said that I had to wait two minutes between loading a file and checking the website- and that no one else could hit that page in the meanwhile. Again, obviously not suitable for development.
I have edited /var/spool/cron/root file

How can we stop Plesk resetting the file permissions on a dll file that is found in
C:Program Files (x86)
??
Specifically,
we have a file, jmail.dll,
here
C:Program Files (x86)Dimacw3JMail
By default Plesk permissions are set to DENY for PSACLN.
But the JMail plugin cannot work with these permissions !
We change this to be ALLOW for READ & EXECUTE and DENY for WRITE.
And everything works fine.
But every time Plesk does an update it reverts it back !
This means that a number of our customers contact forms stop working !
