With some help from the hosting company (NetFirm), I have set up the htaccess file in the subdirectory (mysite.com/znew) as below:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /znew/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/|.htm|.php|.html|/[^.]*)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index.php
RewriteRule ^(content/|component/)(.*) index.php/$1$2

This works fine with Mambo built-in SEF on, but with ARTIO JoomSEF 1.4 installed, it returns 404 error on all pages.

ARTIO JoomSEF 1.4 has been working fine with all of my other Mambo installations with other hosting companies, so I'm not sure if this is the server specific conflict with JoomSEF.

Below is the System Info from my Mambo installation:

PHP built On: FreeBSD cgi4 4.10-RELEASE-p21
Database Version: 5.0.24a-log
PHP Version: 4.3.10
Web Server: Apache/1.3.34 (Unix) mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_perl/1.26


Any input would be greatly appreciated.<br><br>Post edited by: zen, at: 2007/04/07 18:14

Hello,

please check that the 3rd party RewriteRules are uncommented in the .htaccess file. What you have posted here seem to be the standard Joomla/Mambo RewriteRules only.

Here's an update.



Now, with this version, it works with JoomSEF, but as described in this thread, I have to have the index.php (and not index.html) prefix in JoomSEF configuration in order for this to work.

How can I make htaccess to work with NO prefix entered?

Hello,

on our own site, the JoomSEF is configured with empty &quot;File suffix&quot; setting. Then, there are no .php or .html endings. As in this site - feel free to check.

Hopefully that is what you want?
I am a bit confused as .php is usually reffered to as &quot;file extension&quot; or &quot;suffix&quot;, but I think we understand each other.

Best regards,
