I have a default rule for my PHP framework in .htaccess file that routes all requests except specific files to index.php.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule !\.(pdf|js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css|rar|zip|tar\.gz)$ index.php [L]
For example, if I have site-specific images in /images folder, request foo.com/images/name.jpg will be processed directly to filesystem.
But I need a special behavior for URLs with specific path, f.e. /image. So requests like foo.com/image/name.jpg should also be routed to index.php...
RewriteRule .*\.(pdf|js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css|rar|zip|tar|gz)$ /index.php [L]

I am using 2 Domains like http://doma.in and http://domain.com
The shortning URL calls only generated URL's from my Script. All other calls from the shortning URL should be forwarded to the Main Domain. Thats why I have this small mod_rewrite Rule.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^doma.in [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
The Question
I want to disallow calling subfolders from the shortning URL. Because the shortning URL can also generate Custom URLs like
http://www.nokia.com -> http://doma.in/nokia
If I would have a subfolder called "nokia" than it will not be forwarded to the target. Instead of to forward it is calling the subfolder.
To forward URLs over mod_rewrite is this Rule used.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-x
RewriteRule ^(.*) /redirect.php?id=$1 [L]
Your question is a little unclear.
If you want the redirect to execute for /nokia even if you have a directory called /nokia, you need to remove the line:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
What that condition says is "If the file path of the request is an existing directory, do not continue."
am using codeigniter to build a website with a lot of image galleries , i store the images in folders ,but i want to restrict access to the folders via url .i.e i don't want people to have access to my image folder using a url like this::
http://website/all_images/
all images is the folder that contains the image folder .. i tried using a htaccess file
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^CI_system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /website/index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|all_images)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /website/index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>
the rewrite condition for the index.php works well but i still get access to all my folders via the url
If you want to disable folders to be viewed, just add empty index.html file, but if you try to protect images from being viewed then your website wont be able to find them too
Why don't you create an index file under that folder. In this way no will will be able to view images under that folder.
You can make this file call a function that says "access denied" or whatever you need.
Options -Indexes in your htaccess file will stop directory viewing no extra files needed. and if you want to stop direct image viewing i.e. myweb.com/all_images/coolpic.jpg then all you have to do is (since your base is / you can use the whole one below):
Options -Indexes
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
DirectoryIndex index.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?myweb.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpg)$ - [F]
</IfModule>
All you would have to change is the line with your web address in it and add all of your file types to the last rewrite rule (seperating each with a pipe |) and then this will cover all of the angles you have discussed 100%.
I am facing a different problem in codeigniter.
When I try to access the videos page in my site, it will redirect to 404.shtml page. But cvideos.php file exists in my controllers folder.
If I access like this http://domain-name/videos , then it will be redirected like this
//domain-name/500.shtml
And If I access the same page like this //domain-name/videos/myvideos, then then it will be redirected like this
//domain-name/404.shtml
Also, If I change the controller name from videos to some other name like videoss it works fine. Can anyone tell wats the issue.
I used this line in my .htaccess also just for testing. But no use.
RewriteRule ^videos/$ index.php/videoss/ [L]
Your controller needs to be the same name as the class it contains.
hence -
<?php
controller Videos extends Controller {
/* bla */
}
?>
should be saved as:
videos.php in the "controllers" directory.
Nothing else will work.
also your rewrite rule has two "s"'s, but that might be intentional.
and it looks like what you are trying to do with .htaccess can be achieved with CI's routing
Edit: .htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
#Removes access to the system folder by users.
#Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>

please note I did not create this - it was found by scouring the CI forums. It's a rather thorough htaccess however.
Don't forget to set the value of "index.php" to "" in your config.
base_url is case sensitive
localhost/site/controller = c:...\site
localhost/SITE/controller = c:...\SITE
make sure you are not missing .htaccess file in your root directory. Or check for its accuracy. Make sure uri_protocol and base_url are set correctly in config.php.
for sample, i am copying my .htaccess file here
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /your_dir
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
I used this to get rid of index.php in url.
I had a similar problem when transferring a CI site from WAMPP to a LAMPP that someone else had made. It would seem that WAMPP was configured to be case-insensitive, as when I converted all my controller/model/view file names and all php strings containing controller/model/view names to lowercase it worked perfectly.
I use the below mod rewrite code for urls like: www.site.com/play/543
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^play/([^/]*)$ /index.php?play=$1 [L]
How can I expand on this so I can have a couple urls like www.site.com/contact and www.site.com/about
RewriteRule ^(play|contact|about)/([^/]*)$ /index.php?$1=$2 [L]
Might do the trick. Now requests to /play/foo points to /index.php?play=foo and /contact/bar points to /index.php?contact=bar and so on.
Edit, from comment "about and contact will never be set though."
Just use two rewrites then;
RewriteRule ^play/([^/]*)$ /index.php?play=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(contact|about)/?$ /index.php?a_variable_for_your_page=$1 [L]
The common way used by most of the PHP frameworks is just passing whatever the user requests except existing files (generally assets *.png, *.js *.css) and/or public directories to a PHP script and then interpreting the route on the PHP side.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d #if not an existing directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f #if not an existing file
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L] #pass query string to index.php as $_GET['url']
</IfModule>
On the PHP side it is very important to avoid things like this
$page = getPageFromUrl($_GET['url']);
include($page);
So be very careful when taking the user input and sanitize/filter to avoid the remote user to access non-public files on your web host.
I have problems with static files url rewriting in current .htaccess setup on apache2.
My app structure is:
/siteroot
/siteroot/app
/siteroot/lib
/siteroot/...
/siteroot/public <- all the static files (images, js, etc.) stored here
/siteroot/index.php
/siteroot/.htaccess
So, i need to rewrite url like /css/style.css to /public/css/style.css. I did that in really simple way, but when the file is not found it causing 10 internal redirects, which is bad. I need somehow to return 404 code if file not found, or just pass it to the next rule. And i dont have any access to site configuration file. Only .htaccess.
The reason why i`m asking this question is that the site was running on nginx and i need to rebuild the same configuration on apache.
Here is my .htaccess file.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|js|swf)$ /public/$0 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
Test if a redirect is reasonable:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/public/$0 -f
RewriteRule ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|js|swf)$ /public/$0 [L]
If the number of prefixes is limited, you could add another group to your regex:
RewriteRule ^(css|js|images|etc)/.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|js|swf)$ /public/$0 [L]
