Infinite amount of rediretcs with .htaccess in subdirectory

I'm trying to get a webpage running which might not get any support anymore, so I have to fix this on my own. So in the root directory, I have this .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*) resources/$1 [L]

So all the content gets redirected to the resources/ folder. Now this kinda works, as the frontpage shows all the static content (CSS, JS, Images). But when I try to open mydomain.com/admin, I'll get an HTTP 500. The logfile says

AH00124: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.

The .htaccess file in the sub-dir has this content:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
Options -Indexes

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?param=$1 [QSA,L]

For my basic Apache knowledge this does seems quite right; but is it, or do I have change Apache settings? (The VPS is a kind of PaaS-thing, so I can access/change some things)

Thank you.

Have your root htaccess rule file in following way(you need to put a condition for a check before rewriting).

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/resources [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ resources/$1 [L]

Then for your sub directory level htaccess file try following:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
Options -Indexes

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?param=$1 [QSA,L]

Also in case you want to apply same rules which you have in your root directory to sub-directories then add RewriteOptions InheritBefore before RewriteEngine ON in your sub directory level htaccess file.
