Simple subdomain redirect

Postby Cadish » Tue Mar 03, 2009 5:22 am

Hi,

I want to redirect a subdomain and am using this code now:

Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
# Rewrite sub domains.
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?([^\.]+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /script.php?username=%2&request_uri=$1 [QSA,L]


Now, only www.user.domain.com redirects. I also want user.domain.com to redirect. How can I achieve this?

Thanks a lot in advance!! I'm searching for this for a couple of days now...

What happens when you go to user.example.com?

It should match that rule. Do you have any other rules?

If you put the following in your .htaccess file
Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule Google http://www.google.com/? [NC,R,L]

and go to user.example.com/Google do you get redirected. Are you sure those sub domains are going to that directory?

Also try
Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.([^\.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^\.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /script.php?username=%1&request_uri=$1 [QSA,L]

Thanks for the great effort!!

Your first script with google works. If I go to user.example.com/Google , it redirects.

The second script doesn't work... :(

Try
Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^\.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /script.php?username=%1&request_uri=$1 [QSA,L]

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.([^\.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /script.php?username=%1&request_uri=$1 [QSA,L]

And
Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/script\.php$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.([^\.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^\.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /script.php?username=%1&request_uri=$1 [QSA,L]

Still the same :/

Maybe it has something to do with my host or the settings? :-?

Have you asked your host about it?

Try the following in your .htaccess file
Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule test http://www.example.com/?%{HTTP_HOST} [NC,R,L]

and going to /test. What URL go you get redirected to (what is %{HTTP_HOST} replaced with)?

For example.com/test or user.example.com/test? user.example.com/test is the important one (i should have specified that).
