ok, so I've tried many things I've found on SO and elsewhere, but I just can't get it to work, always receiving a 404 error code.
I'd like to enter this url:
memorizeit.com/pics/220.0.8251.20120905002352.7982368227/Jameson+tested+the+MemorizeIt%21+Android+app%3A+With+Facebook+%26+Twitter.+Getting+grass+stains.
and have it invisibly convert to:
memorizeit.com/pics/index.php?pic=220.0.8251.20120905002352.7982368227&title=Jameson+tested+the+MemorizeIt%21+Android+app%3A+With+Facebook+%26+Twitter
The index.php page is looking for:
$pic = ($_GET["pic"]);
$title = ($_GET["title"]);
In my .htaccess file in the /pics directory I've got the following:
RewriteEngine on
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=2592000"
RewriteRule ^pics/([^\/]*)/([^\/]*)/([^\/]*)$ /pics/index.php?pic=$1&title=$2&extra=$3 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^pics/(.+)/(.+)$ /pics/index.php?pic=$1&title=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^pics/([^\/]*)$ /pics/index.php?pic=$1 [L,QSA]
I've tried it without the QSA, I've tried it with either .+ (anything) and [^/]* (anything except /) I left both in so you can see how I've put them there (I think!). I do plan on making the $1 allowed to only include numbers and periods, but I'd just like to get it to work being wide open first.
I can't figure out why it isn't working. In my base url .htaccess file I have:
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} ^80$
RewriteRule .* https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
And it always redirects to https so I know the .htaccess files are being read. I don't know what else to try. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Turns out that because pics/ is a real directory the rewrite was trying harder to get there than to just go ahead and rewrite it. So I changed the pics/ to p/ in the matching statement and moved the rules to the base .htaccess file and it works as expected.
Wow that took a long painful time... Hope it saves someone else some time.

I have tried for many days to solve my need. Try to find in google and read at the stackoverflow, but I stil unable to get my answer.
I need to get the subdomain value including the value behind it.
for example:
subdomain_name.domain.com -> will execute domain.com/user.php?subdomain_value=subdomain_name
subdomain_name.domain.com/product_1.html --> will open page domain.com/user.php?page=1&subdomain_value=subdomain_name
I have tried to use code below:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^((?!www\.)[^.]+)\.domain\.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/user\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /user.php?subdomain_value=%1
RewriteRule ^product_([0-9]+).html$ /user.php?process=list_produk&page=$1&subdomain=%1
But it failed. When try to open subdomain_name.domain.com/product_1.html, it will keep opening the content of subdomain_name.domain.com
If I removed the code:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /user.php?subdomain_value=%1
Then, subdomain_name.domain.com/product_1.html will open the correct page, but the address subdomain_name.domain.com fail to open the correct page.
so, How can I make all of the .htaccess code work fine? I have think very hard and try all possibilities, including added [L], [NC,L], [L,QSA], but all of them failed.
Please help.
Thanks.
I was just looking for a solution to transform any =,?,& found in a query string into a simple slash /.
To be more specific, my link is something like:
http://www.mydomain.com/product.php?c=1&sc=12&products_id=15
and I would it like this:
http://www.mydomain.com/product.php/c/1/sc/12/products_id/15
whatever the master page could be (in this case is product.php, but it could be foo.php, bar.php...or else).
I have googled a lot but didn't find any good solution to achieve what i'm looking for.
I have found complex rewrite rules, but they all include the "page name" into them:
i.e.
RewriteRule ^/?index/([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ /index.php?foo=$1&bar=$2 [L,QSA]
That rule is only applicable to index.php and to known variables like foo, bar.
I need a more general one, whatever the master page is, whatever the variables are.
Can this be done?
Any suggestion?
Thanks
I assume you're using apache >= 2.2. Add this to your apache conf:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# you absolutely need to use RewriteBase if this snippet is in .htaccess
# if the .htaccess file is located in a subdirectory, use
# RewriteBase /path/to/subdir
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(=|&)*([^=&]+)(=|&)?(.*?)=*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/%2?%4= [N,NE]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^=$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1? [R,L]
</IfModule>
The first RewriteCond/RewriteRule pair repeatedly matches a token delimited by & or = and adds it to the path. The important flag is the [N] that causes the whole ruleset to start over again, as often as the rule matches. Additionally, a = is appended to the end of the query string. This is to create a mark in the URL that at least one rewrite has happened.
The second ruleset checks for the = mark that remains after the URL has been rewritten completely and issues a redirect.
Have a look at http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/RewriteQueryString for some useful hints.
I am trying to redirect a pattern of urls
http://style.com/style-blog/entry/what-im-looking-for-in-my-next-15-inch-laptop
to
http://style.com/blog/entry/what-im-looking-for-in-my-next-15-inch-laptop
I have tried to match the "style-blog" here
^style-blog/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ or ^style-blog/$
I needed to the first version to get ANY remaining part of the url to append to the new url here
RewriteRule ^style-blog/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ http://style.com/you-blog/$1 [NC,L]
Thanks for pointers on what I am doing wrong.
I think you may just be missing a /:
RewriteRule ^/style-(blog/[A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ http://style-review.com/$2
Using wildcard:
RewriteRule ^/style-(blog/.*)$ http://style-review.com/$2
Do you even need the full URL?
RewriteRule ^/style-(blog/.*)$ /$2
Are the ^ and $ required? Wouldn't just this work?
RewriteRule style-blog/ blog/
RewriteRule ^style-blog/(.*)/(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/you-blog/$1/$2 [R=301,L]
This appears to be working but thanks to you guys you got me on the right track and probably you didn't have enough information to solve it. Its not fully tested yet and might not cope with any extra 'folders' (bits between slashes)
Here are my current rules:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^to=(one|seventeen|thirty\+four)
RewriteRule ^/folder/page.php$ http://www.site.com/folder/category/%1? [L]
RewriteRule ^folder/category/(.+)\+(.+)$ http://www.site.com/folder/category/$1-$2 [L]
The first rule works fine, it redirects perfectly if the word is in the query string, but I can't get thirty+four to become thirty-four when redirected.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
For starters, RewriteRule ^/folder/page.php$ will never match anything. The URI's get the prefix (the leading slash) removed if the rules are in an .htaccess file instead of server config.
Secondly, since you've included http://www.site.com/ in your targets, that means the browser will get redirected instead of internally rewritten. You need to remove http://www.site.com/ from your first rule so that the second one can be applied.
Here's what should work:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^to=(one|seventeen|thirty\+four)
RewriteRule ^folder/page.php$ folder/category/%1 [NC,QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^folder/category/(.+)\+(.+)$ folder/category/$1-$2 [NC,QSA,L]
And now three hints:
1)
Please make sure you've read everything here before asking:
Here's the wiki of serverfault.com
The howto's htaccess official guide
The official mod_rewrite guide
2)
Please try to use the RewriteLog directive: it helps you to track down problems:
# Trace:
# (!) file gets big quickly, remove in prod environments:
RewriteLog "/web/logs/mywebsite.rewrite.log"
RewriteLogLevel 9
RewriteEngine On
3)
My favorite tool to check for regexp:
http://www.quanetic.com/Regex (don't forget to choose ereg(POSIX) instead of preg(PCRE)!)
You use this tool when you want to check the URL and see if they're valid or not.
I'm trying to reformat my url to be a bit shorter. Right now the links end up as this: website.com/image?id=name.jpg
What I want to have the link come out as is m.website.com/name, without the file exension or image.php file in the url. I figure mod_rewrite is the way to do it, so any help will be greatly appreciated.
In order to make it so someone accessing the URL http://m.website.com/name gets served the content for http://website.com/image?id=name.jpg, you first need to check the hostname for m.website.com, then match the name part of the URI. Using that match, you can proxy the request (using a [P]) or, if both website.com and m.website.com are hosted on the same server, just simply internally rewrite. Try putting this in your .htaccess file in your document root:
RewriteEngine on
# check the host (NC = no case)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^m\.website\.com$ [NC]
# don't rewrite /image
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/image
# Match the first non-slash word and rewrite
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)$ /image?id=$1 [L]
This will rewrite http://m.website.com/name to /image?id=name.jpg, but it will not rewrite http://m.website.com/path/name. If you want paths (and everything else) to be included in the id parameter, change the ([^/]+) to (.*) in the RewriteRule.
