RewriteOptions MaxRedirects=10

Posted in: #403Forbidden #Apache #Htaccess #HttpCode500 #ModRewrite

I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong with this .htaccess rewrite:

Options -Indexes

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /test/site/
RewriteOptions MaxRedirects=10

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /test/site/public/page.php?rel= [NC,L,B]

I have an Front end script that handles all of the requests. In my case I don't need or have index.php/index.html file in my root project (/test/site/). That causes Apache to throw 403 error because of the first line of the code.

The code will work only if you access the links as follows:
localhost/test/site/public/index http://localhost/test/site/public/something/else/index.html

But if you enter
localhost/test/site/public/

It'll throw 403 error.

I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong but I can't figure it out.

: The easiest thing to do would be to tell your server (I'm assuming Apache, but this is true for Lighttpd and Nginx as well) to use the same folder as the document root for both domains.

: Show a single DIV from remote site to new site. Only http access to remote host we have cisco CWS working which has a web administration site. On that site it has DIV with 'overall summary'.

Well, your RewriteRule does not apply because that path you are trying is a directory. As set up, your .htaccess redirects things that are neither.

You will need an additional rule or a custom 403 page to handle directories. You may also change your condition to files only. In other words, remove the second RewriteCond line. Which you do depends on what you want to happen for a directory path.
