Question

I’m trying to set up a web site based on symfony2. Everything is ok, but on a specific server, the way of apache vhosts are set up & the .htaccess on the symfony webroot causes infinite loop.

If someone have a clue to make it work without changing anything in symfony code (because it has to work on other servers). The only things I can modify are vhosts settings & .htaccess.

Here are the confs :

Vhosts (sub domain) :

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   ^name.domain.fr [NC]
RewriteRule   ^/(.*)$ /name/web/$1  [L]

Symfony2 .htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ app.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

Thanks for help 🙂

Answer 1

Add a condition to check to see if it’s not in the /name directory already.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}   ^name.domain.fr [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/name/
RewriteRule   ^/(.*)$ /name/$1  [L]
