Hi all,
I have a website with an associated domain name hosted by a third party
provider.
They let me place .htacess files in folders and mod_rewrite is enabled.
I would like that any request for "mydomain.com" be redirected to
"www.mydomain.com" while letting through any request for other third
level domains (such as test.mydomain.com or static.mydomain.com)
For the CMS that is handling the web content, I already have a
RewriteRule that redirects any non existent folder or file to index.php,
declared like this :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [L,NC]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I looked around and saw the example about canonical hostnames indicated
inside the mod_rewrite guide here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html#url
So I tried to adapt the given example and modified my .htacess file to this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [L,NC]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, this does not seem to work, requests made to
http://domain.com/ are not redirected to http://www.mydomain.com/ but
served directly by index.php, it's as if the first rule is not used at all.
I must be missing something obvious here, but I can't figure it right now.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Regards
Olivier
