: Domain.com to www.domain.com .htaccess redirect working except one subdir I've setup a redirect in .htaccess to consolidate domain.com to www.domain.com traffic on our Apache server. Looks like this:

Found the issue. The root file had a .htaccess file. Everything in there was fine.

The /blog/ subdirectory though also had an .htaccess file with some duplicate rules. As soon as I renamed that .htaccess file (for all intents and purposes deleted it), centerline.net/blog redirected to www.centerline.net/blog without issue.

Here's the relevant snippet from my .htaccess that works for me. I'm going in the opposite direction from you (from www.vyznev.net to vyznev.net), but the principle should be the same:

#
# URL rewrite engine setup
#
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

#
# Append directory slash (because Apache seems to prepend "www.")
#
RewriteCond /www/asiakkaat/vyznev/public_html/ -d
RewriteRule ^(.*[^/])$ vyznev.net// [NS,L,R=permanent]

#
# Canonicalize host name
#
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^vyznev.net$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?vyznev.net$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) vyznev.net/ [NS,L,R=permanent]


The first RewriteRule is there just to avoid double redirects for directory URLs without a trailing slash; you probably won't need it, but I included it just in case.

To be honest, I have no idea why the code in your question shouldn't work just as well as mine does. But, in the absence of a better answer, I figured having a known working example might be of at least some help.
