.htaccess bug -> RewriteBase | Forum

Andreas

I think, there is a Bug in the htaccess File. Ther should be added a RewriteBase by default.

Like this:
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule (.*) index.php

On my Server it only work with this RewriteBase. So you could have more Installation on one Domain or on the Developer Workstation.

RewriteBase /oxwall-1.4.0/
RewriteRule (.*) index.php

And I can access the site by using:
http://localhost/oxwall-1.4.0/

Please fix this isue. It should also be Part of your Installation Manual.

Our .htaccess file works fine for almost all installations. Don't you think it's more a server configuration than coding issue?

Yes on most. But with this it could run on the rest ;). Its a simple line, wich makes it easier to handle more installation on one domain or on a server wich I have ;).

This line is common in big cms wich uses modrewrite. Why not implement it here and provide better support for other Server?

Okay, I am not that .htaccess pro so I will discuss your suggestion with our developers and let you know about the outcome.
