.htaccess mod_rewrite error

Question

Here is the htaccess in the public_html:

# Use PHP5.4 as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54 .php
Options -Multiviews
Options -Indexes
# For security reasons, Option followsymlinks cannot be overridden.
#Options +FollowSymLinks
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

RewriteEngine on 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !api\\dispatch\.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^api/.* api/dispatch.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php

Here is the code for the htaccess in public_html/sites/

# For security reasons, Option followsymlinks cannot be overridden.
#Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^/.]+)\.webznap\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %1 !^(www|ftp|mail)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sites [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://webznap.com/sites/%1/ [L]

Here is the htaccess for public_html/sites/luis/

RewriteEngine On

ErrorDocument 400 /page/error
ErrorDocument 401 /page/error
ErrorDocument 403 /page/error
ErrorDocument 404 /page/error
ErrorDocument 500 /page/error

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php

Answer 1

Give this a try:

# Use PHP5.4 as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54 .php

# For security reasons, Option followsymlinks cannot be overridden.
#Options +FollowSymLinks
Options -Multiviews -Indexes +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

RewriteEngine on

ErrorDocument 400 /page/error
ErrorDocument 401 /page/error
ErrorDocument 403 /page/error
ErrorDocument 404 /page/error
ErrorDocument 500 /page/error

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^/.]+)\.webznap\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %1 !^(www|ftp|mail)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sites [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /sites/%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !api\\dispatch\.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^api/.* api/dispatch.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php

SIDE NOTE: public_html/sites/.htaccess and public_html/sites/dynamic_subdoamin/.htaccess should be removed!

And make sure that:

anything_you_try.domain.com

Exists on:

anything_your_try.domain.com/sites/anything_your_try

Or it will fail.

What it does?

The first line catch the sub-domain name if any:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^/.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]

This line makes sure the sub-domain is not www, ftp or mail:

RewriteCond %1 !^(www|ftp|mail)$ [NC]

This line verify is the URL path does not start with /sites:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sites [NC]

This line will internally redirect whatever the URL is:

RewriteRule ^ /sites/%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L]

So if the URL was for example:

http://luis.domain.com/hello

It will show the content of:

http://luis.domain.com/sites/luis/hello

Without changing the URL.
