.htaccess redirect working on localhost but not on server
- by Thread7
I want users who hit my web site's root directory to be sent to a subdirectory. So anyone going to:
http://MyDomain.com or /index.php would be sent to http://MyDomain.com/subdir
I used the .htaccess file to successfully do this on my local machine (with Apache 2). But it doesn't work on the server? Users still see the default index.php in the root directory.
Here is my simple .htaccess file. Any ideas?
RewriteEngine On
Redirect /index.php http://MyDomain.com/subdir/
Now my httpd.conf file
AccessFileName .htaccess
