My story:
I have an Economy account with GoDaddy where in my root folder I've made 2 folders for 2 different webistes: first folder is
joomla and the second one
joomla166, in both of them I have installed Joomla1.6.
In order to put the websites online I had to do a 301 redirect in GoDaddy:
from
http://www.website1.com to
http://www.website1.com/joomlaand
http://www.website2.com to
http://www.website.com/joomla166If I'm enabling SEF and mode_rewrite in the backend I have just to rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess without deleting # in front of RewriteBase /
If I'm deleting # it gives me an error when i access the links.
This is my final .htaccess that I'm using and SEF is working.
Code:
##
# @version $Id: htaccess.txt 20196 2011-01-09 02:40:25Z ian $
# @package Joomla

# The line just below this section: 'Options +FollowSymLinks' may cause problems
# with some server configurations. It is required for use of mod_rewrite, but may already
# be set by your server administrator in a way that dissallows changing it in
# your .htaccess file. If using it causes your server to error out, comment it out (add # to
# beginning of line), reload your site in your browser and test your sef url's. If they work,
# it has been set by your server administrator and you do not need it set here.

I would like to get rid of the
joomla or [b]joomla166 [/b ]tail (
http://www.website1.com/joomla or ww.website2.com/joomla166) but I can not.
Anybody can help me and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Is it because the Economy account can not host more then one webiste or there is something else.
Thank you.
