Currently I am redirecting all URLs to my index.html files:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.html$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js)$
RewriteRule .* /index.html [L,R=302]
I want to exclude two URLs, for example:
www.mydomain.com/i-am-a-domain
www.mydomain.com/super-cool
I found several snippets to exclude URLs, but I was not able to include them, because they use a different setup (at least I think so).
As RewriteCond sets conditions, i guess I have to add a line here. I have tried adding:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/(i-am-a-domain|super-cool)\ [NC]
Which does not work. How can I achieve that?
Change your existing condition as this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(index\.html|i-am-a-domain|super-cool)/?$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js)$
RewriteRule ^ /index.html [L,R=302]
However if you have other rules also in this .htaccess then I suggest using THE_REQUEST variable which doesn't get overwritten after execution of some internal rewrite rules.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\s/+(index\.html|i-am-a-domain|super-cool)[?\s/] [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js)\sHTTP
RewriteRule ^ /index.html [L,R=302]

I don't have much experience with .htaccess rewrite rules so I'm hoping that someone can help.
I've created a subdomain for a website that I want to use for development work however I think that the current .htaccess file is causing a redirect to the main domain. This is the current .htaccess file:
<Files 403.shtml>
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Files>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} libwww-perl.*
RewriteRule .* ? [F,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.co.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^160\.153\.16\.12
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.co\.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.co\.uk$
The sub domain is dev.website.co.uk
Any advice will be very gratefully received.
Your .htaccess has rules which tell it to redirect to the main domain. Just remove them from your subdomain's .htaccess.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.co.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^160\.153\.16\.12
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
# I don't know what these are for
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.co\.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.co\.uk$
I see many problems in your .htaccess, may be you have posted only part of it.
Main problem I see, the following lines catch any case where HTTP_HOST is different from www.domain.co.uk and redirect to www.domain.co.uk
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.co.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [L,R=301]
The following catch any case HTTP_HOST is different from ^160\.153\.16\.12 and redirect to www.domain.co.uk
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^160\.153\.16\.12
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
As far as I know, the remaining RewriteCond are useless without a corresponding rewrite rule.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.co\.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.co\.uk$
The RewriteCond directive defines a rule condition. One or more
RewriteCond can precede a RewriteRule directive. The following rule is
then only used if both the current state of the URI matches its
pattern, and if these conditions are met.
And at end, as #Marc B stated, you need to explain where the .htaccess is placed and if both the sites share the same root.
Please read the question carefully before marking as duplicate.
We all know, that using in .htaccess:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
we can redirect all traffic to index.php so we can create friendly urls and have one front controller.
Although the question is connected to mod_rewrite the problem is described for Laravel.
The following .htaccess comes by default with Laravel 4 and it works fine:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes...
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
If we run url mydomain.com/something and have set that route for something properly, some controller will be launched. It works fine so far.
However in Laravel 4 we will be able to reach the same route using mydomain.com/index.php/something. Probably using Laravel url creating we will have no urls with index.php in url but there is some other problem.
For example if our competition would like to make us some harm, they can simple put in Internet single links for urls to mydomain.com/index.php/something, mydomain.com/index.php/something2 and so on and search engines will see duplicate urls.
Of course if we have our custom PHP application, we can do it in PHP without a problem checking simply $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] and make 301 redirection. We can of course do the same in Laravel but we have to write this code in PHP each time and probably some developers could say it is bad practice to do it in PHP.
Question is simple: how can I redirect in .htaccess all urls that contain index.php to to the same url without index.php?
Example urls that should be redirected:
mydomain.com/index.php/something should be redirected to mydomain.com/something (something could be anything - can contain any characters)
mydomain.com/index.php should be redirected to mydomain.com
mydomain.com/index.php?anything should be redirected to mydomain.com (anything can contain any characters)
mydomain.com/index.phpanything should be redirected to mydomain.com anything can contain any characters)
Insert these rules just below RewriteEngine On line:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*?)index\.php[^/] /$1? [L,R=302,NC,NE]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*?)index\.php(?:/(.*))?$ /$1$2? [L,R=302,NC,NE]
After spending hours I write below code for me and its 100% working
Redirect index.php to non index.php
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index\.php
RewriteRule ^index.php/(.*)$ /$1 [R=301,L]
how can I redirect in .htaccess all urls that contain index.php to to
the same url without index.php?
Add this to your .htaccess
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s(.*)/index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]
For Nginx, here is the rules :
location / {
rewrite ^/(.*?)index\.php[^/] /$1? redirect;
rewrite ^/(.*?)index\.php(?:/(.*))?$ /$1$2? redirect;
}
This solved my problem to force https & remove index.php from the url in Kohan 2.3

I write a lot of RewriteRule in my .htaccess file , but problem occurs when I switch from https to http pages; it does not follow these rules
NOTE : everything working fine on localhost , issues are on server <---- UPDATE
Here is my website , currently all links display as per RewriteRule*
for e.g. about us page link display as
http://www.mywebsite.com/about
BUT
if I am at login page ( which is on https ) and click on about us page then it turns into below.
http://www.mywebsite.com/about?slug=about_us
or if I click on any category on left panel then it comes as
http://www.mywebsite.com/auction/category/1?cid=1
Note : even mouse hovering on pages display rewrite link

If i change the case of rewrite URL ( Login or lOgin or logiN ) then it gives error?
Is it good practice to write [NC,L] with all RewriteRule?
Exactly when I should write [QSA] ?

HTTPS suggestion
For your HTTPS issue I would match on port or HTTPS as there are known apache problems relating to the HTTPS tag.
To cover this match on both (as shown in your edited answer)
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} != on
##REWRITE RULE
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^443$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} = on
##REWRITE RULE
A valid point is also that %{REQUEST_URI} isn't affected by any substitutions.
The way you are using it at the moment, if any rule matches you will send them to the original url (before any substitution started).
If you want to take the url after and substition and matching use $1
Answers to your further questions:
If I change the case of rewrite URL then it gives error?
This is because your [NC] isn't on the rewrite cond for the HTTPS section of your .htaccess
You match RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /login [OR] this is only looking for lower case login, if you want to accept uppercase login append NC.
Is it good practice to write [NC,L] with all RewriteRule?
No, it depends what you want to do [NC] says don't match case on this rule, if you don't want to match case on that rule (or condition) then add it.
Not matching the case with [NC] means site.com/login.php = sYte.cOm/LoGin.PHP
[L] means if this is true, stop processing everything
Exactly when I should write [QSA] ?
QSA applies when you have a ? in your substitution and you want to append toe old string to the new URL
Consider the following rule:
RewriteRule /pages/(.+) /page.php?page=$1 [QSA]
With the [QSA] flag, a request for /pages/123?one=two will be mapped to /page.php?page=123&one=two. Without the [QSA] flag, that same request will be mapped to /page.php?page=123 - that is, the existing query string will be discarded.
Do use QSA if you want to keep any additional get arguments.
Another further question
/login URL always changed into /login.php
The only way for this to happen is if you have a redirect [R=301] somewhere in your code, the only place I can see that is this section:
# Rewrite to https
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} != on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/login|/do_login)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
Where this will only match the following URL's
.php, /login.php, /do_login.php
I believe the culprit is as I outlined in the first response with %{REQUEST_URI}
Your code essentially says, if these conditions are met, send them to https://theurltheywentto, which is not what you want to do, you want to send them to /login.
Have you tried using (as mentioned in my https section)
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/login [R=301,L]
Or perhaps (if you have /do_login) and other options
RewriteRule ^(.*).php https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
Where test.com/do_login.php will become https://test.com/do_login
How about you try:
# Rewrite to https
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/login|/do_login)\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} != on
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.php https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
I think this might be of your help
.htaccess redirect https to http not working
and for last question this might be of your help
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/rewrite/flags.html and
http://www.addedbytes.com/download/mod_rewrite-cheat-sheet-v2/png/
EDIT:
You can try using
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^443$
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
instead of
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [NC]
For detail
Please see this link, someone had similar problem. Please see second reply of the post
http://www.webmasterworld.com/apache/3228459.htm
you can solve this by creating the domain alias
You can't do it within .htaccess, but within a http.conf <VirtualHost> section you can use the ServerName and ServerAlias directives to accomplish this.
Your confusion over /about is due to redirecting to %{REQUEST_URI}, which isn't changed as you make substitutions. Capture the URI and use $1 if you don't really want the URI as it started uring this round of rewrite processing.
I'm trying to change my .htaccess file so that if I go to:
http://www.example.com/index.php?login=true, it goes to http://www.example.com/login.
I currently have this code which removes index.php (which makes the above looks like http://www.example.com/?login=true).
RewriteEngine On
#remove index.php
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/system/.*
RewriteRule (.*?)index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET
I would setup your rewrite rule the other way around:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^login$ /index.php?login=true
This way if a user browses to http://yourserver.com/login the actual page used is http://yourserver.com/index.php?login=true, but the first URL is shown in the browser. I assume this is what you are trying to achieve.
If you really need to do it in the direction you asked for, you can try something like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^login=true$
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ /login [L,R=301]
This will fail of there are additional query parameters.
If you want to redirect http://yourserver.com/index.php to http://yourserver.com you can simply add the following rewrite rule:
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ / [L,R=301]
The following should work although there might something wrong with the line to exclude /system/*. Try testing with that commented out.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ([^=]*)=true [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^/system/.*
RewriteRule index.php /%1? [R=301,L]
The following page helped: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/RewriteQueryString
This tester is cool but does have a few bugs in it: http://martinmelin.se/rewrite-rule-tester/
try the following in the .htaccess in root directory of example.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
#rewrite http://www.example.com/anything to http://www.example.com/index.php?anything=true
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/([-a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %1 !system [NC]
RewriteRule . index.php?%1=true [L]
#301 redirect requests for example.com/index.php?anything=true to example.com/anything
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^([^=]+)=true$ [NC]
RewriteRule . /%1? [L,R=301]
You need to check for the QUERY_STRING in a RewriteCond. I think this should do:
RewriteEngine On
#remove index.php
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ([^=]*)=true [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/system/.*
RewriteRule ^index\.php /%1? [R=301,L]
This should redirect anything which has index.php?=true to /action
I have a search form that sends a GET request to a page called search.php. I have rewrite rules set up in my htaccess file that rewrite certain things, like /search, to their respective pages. I simply want to take the search.php?q=query and rewrite it to /search/query.
Here is what I have.
RewriteRule search.php?q=(.*) /search/$1
RewriteRule search/(.*) search.php?q=$1 [nc]
What am I doing wrong?!
Here is the complete file

RewriteRule feed/(.*) feed.phptype=$1 [nc]
RewriteRule search\.php?q=(.*)$ /search/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule search/(.*)$ search.php?q=$1 [NC]
Make the first line perform a Redirect and the second perform a Rewrite
RewriteRule search\.php?q=(.*)$ /search/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule search/(.*)$ search.php?q=$1 [NC]
and move
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^images/.*\.jpg$ /images/default.jpg [L]
to the end of the set of rules.
Otherwise, the RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f rule is enacted before anything else, meaning that only requests for non-existant files will be handled by any rules below that line. As there is a search.php file, this prevents that rule from ever being reached.
I was having the same problem and here is a solution i found that worked for me, on my site the queries are being sent to index.php, I discovered if I had "^index.php$ /search/%1? [R=301]" as the first rewrite rule it will just error out because of the second rewrite rule making it just go in a loop so i replaced "^index.php$" with "^$" allowing it to still request the same file. It might not be the best solution, but a work around that works. Here is my working code:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^q=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^$ /search/%1? [R=301]
RewriteBase /search
RewriteRule ^search/(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 [NC]
