So my website is perfectly accessible from pamberg.synology.me/joomla or also from my domain spielatus.ch/joomla
However, i want it to be accessible from spielatus.ch directly, without the /joomla extension, which currently does not work. What i tried already:
1) Setting up a virtual host:
(see settings in attachment Virtual_Host.jpg)
I am not sure if this is currently even doing something.
2) Setting up a htaccess file in the /web folder
Based on some code i found online, the htaccess file includes the following code:
Code: Select all
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} joomla/
RewriteRule ^joomla/(.*) http://spielatus.ch/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !joomla/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /joomla/$1 [L]If I do not touch it (leave the index.php file in the /web directory as pre-installed) i get the following error:
Warning session_start(): Failed to read session data: user (path: /var/services/tmp) in /volume1/web/joomla/session....
The index.php file has just one line: require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/joomla/index.php'
So my quesions:
- It seems there is some kind of redirection if the index.php file is there...however, the result is not the same as with spielatus/joomla. Why is that?
- Do i need that index.php file there if i have the htaccess-file?
- Is the htaccess-file set up correctly?
- Anything wrong with the virtuel host?
- Do you have a solution? What can i try?
- Are the virtual host, the htaccess file and the index.php file contradicting each other in some way?
- If there is no obvious solution from my info, would anyone like to help, so i can contact you directly?
Thank you very much
Pascal
