I have a folder within a site that is a seperate web app than the parent. Both are working fine, but when I go to the domain.com/folder/ path, I would like it to forward me to domain.com/folder/index.htm for consistency. This is the htaccess rule I was trying, but it wasn’t working for me and I am not sure what I did wrong.
RewriteRule ^folder/$ folder/index.htm
RewriteRule ^folder$ folder/index.htm
I tried these rules at the start and end of the rule list to see if anything was overriding and nothing appears to be.
You don’t need Mod Rewrite for this. Instead, use DirectoryIndex:
Place this file in the root of the folder you want this to apply to (e.g. domain.com/folder/)
