htaccess: Redirect / to specific file and keep all symfony redirects

I have an index.html, that is the directory root of the vhost. Parallel there is an symfony application.

I want to have the index.html as the root when example.com or example.com/ ist called.

This index file includes the symfony app via an iframe:

<iframe src="app.php" allowfullscreen></iframe>

But even when I have index.html set as the doc root, it will still call the app.php. I tried and tried to get it to work, I have no idea what I am missing.

This is what my .htaccess looks like:

DirectoryIndex index.html

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On

    # Rewrite path "/" to index.html
    RewriteRule ^[/]?$ /index.html [L]

    RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
    RewriteRule ^app\.php(/(.*)|$) %{ENV:BASE}/$2 [R=301,L]

    # If the requested filename exists, simply serve it.
    # We only want to let Apache serve files and not directories.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
    RewriteRule .? - [L]

    # Rewrite all other queries to the front controller.
    RewriteRule .? %{ENV:BASE}/app.php [L]
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_alias.c>
        # When mod_rewrite is not available, we instruct a temporary redirect of
        # the start page to the front controller explicitly so that the website
        # and the generated links can still be used.
        RedirectMatch 302 ^/$ /app.php/
        # RedirectTemp cannot be used instead
    </IfModule>
</IfModule>

The first RewriteRule is my own, but it doesn't work. It calls the index.html, but also redirects app.php to index.html creating an infinite recursion.

You will need to place the following lines directly behind the first RewriteEngine On:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ index.html [L]

With these lines, only when example.com is requested and nothing is specified, it will redirect the main page to index.html

[EDIT]

Your code looks ok. Could you try to change the line RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$ into RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} 200 ?

(reference Apache mod_rewrite REDIRECT_STATUS condition causing directory listing)
