If a .htaccess is in /forums, and has the following entries, things are going to break.

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /forum
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mydomain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.mydomain.com/forum/$1 [L,R=301]

In his rewrite cond URL is mydomain.com so I think the really htaccess rewrite cond is mydomain.com so I'm comment them because I think they are the problem

removed

The line with the red does not matter unless you remove the # infront. The # stands for a comment, so your server does not parse that.

Could someone check my ticket please? It's been longer than a day.. 5772-RZBM-5604

edit. wrong thread
