My Oxwall installation has gone perfectly and I haven't had any problems until now. I installed Piwik (a web analytics program) on my server now, but when I try to access it, I get a Page Not Found error, even though it's installed correctly. I emailed my host support desk, I got this response:

It seems you have an oxwall install in public_html that has a wildcard redirect for any request coming in and makes the requests redirect to the oxwall install. When piwik folder isn't found, it throws a custom error.

To confirm this, please rename .htaccess in public_html temporarily and try loading the piwik URL in a new browser window. It will open fine. I would request you to check with your developer to modify .htaccess rules to whitelist/bypass the requests coming for piwik.

I followed their directions to rename the .htaccess file and then Piwik started working fine, however my Oxwall install started giving me issues. I renamed the .htaccess back and now Oxwall works fine, but I can't access the Piwik folder again (Page Not Found).
Long story short: What do I need to add to the .htaccess file to allow access to that Piwik folder?
