Question

I uploaded a project to a directory. I have a subdomain which points to this directory.

root/foo   =>   foo.mydomain.com

When I go to foo.mydomain.com, I get the error “Internal Server Error”, I’m sure this has to do with .htaccess, but I haven’t got a clue where to go. Do I put the .htaccess in the root? or the folder which points to my subdomain.

So to Summarize:
I have a subdomain foo.mydomain.com, this points to a directory in my root (root/foo/index.php).
I need a .htaccess file which can resolve this error. My Current .htaccess file is here:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]

I know this .htaccess file is wrong, because it was what I used on my localhost, Where this project was in the root. Now I’ve taken it out the root, I need a working .htaccess to fix this. What do I need to edit in the above code to make my project work.
Project: root/foo/index.php <– This is where my project is(directory called “foo”)
I also have a subdomain pointing to ^^ The said directory.

Hey I too was having the same issue. Just now I fixed after trying a lot 😀 . Add RewriteBase 🙂 .

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]

Hope it will work for you too.
