Question

My htaccess doesn’t quite work:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.php$ /blah/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /blah/index.php/$1 [L]

Basically /blah/about.php should redirect to /blah/about

I’m using codeigniter so the last line is required to process URL’s.

The redirect works fine but I get an internal server error in /blah/about

** Edit – error log:

Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use ‘LimitInternalRecursion’ to increase the limit if necessary. Use ‘LogLevel debug’ to get a backtrace.

Answer 1

Thanks @Cryo for his help, this is the fix:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^(.*)\.php$ /blah/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /blah/index.php/$1 [L]
