Can't get .htaccess to work
- by orokusaki
I'm using Apache2 on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. I have config set to use .htaccess like normal. This is my default site:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride All
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
# alert, emerg.
LogLevel warn
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
Alias /doc/ "/usr/share/doc/"
<Directory "/usr/share/doc/">
Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I've tried lower case "all" (AllowOverride all) as well.
My .htaccess file looks like this:
//Rewrite all requests to www
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain.com [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
//301 Redirect "old_junk.html" File to "new_junk.html"
Redirect 301 /old_junk.html /new_junk.html
//301 Redirect Entire Directory "old_junk/" to "new_junk/"
RedirectMatch 301 /old_junk/(.*) /new_junk//$1
// Copy and paste redirect examples from above:
(with mydomain replaced with my actual domain... and my computer is plugged in)
