"RewriteEngine On" and static pages

Hi,
I seem to miss something.
Due to a hint, I set "RewriteEngine On" in my Apache config and changed the blog configuration about URL forming rewriting to "Use Apache mod_rewrite".
Now static pages are not working anymore:
http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/index. ... print.html
Serendipity Version is 1.7.2
Any ideas?
Cheers
Dirk

That seems vaguely familiar ....
Administration / Configuration → Paths → which settings do you have there?
If, for example, you access (staticpage) contacts, you will indeed be returned, but in the address url with a wrong path, which - in pagination - leads to something like this
http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/pages/ ... /P216.html

Good to know that I am not allone.
Path for contact form: /dirk/blog/index.php?/pages/contactform.html
Configuration paths (I can not remember that I ever touched them):
Code: Select all
Voller Pfad - /srv/www/deimeke.net/dirk/blog/
Upload-Pfad - uploads/
Relativer HTTP-Pfad - /dirk/blog/
Relativer Template-Pfad - templates/
Relativer Upload-Pfad - uploads/
URL zum Blog - http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/
Cheers

Not happend to me, but it sounded familiar to the blogUrl issue and some other thread I remembered...
But this looks good! Does not need to change, IMO.
Was you htaccess file changed, after switching to mod_rewrite in Serendipity?
Since
http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/pages/about_me.html (already as nice url) does not do also...
You might also need to test, if your apache config setting regarding mod_rewrite really happens... is the extension modul available and did your reload your webserver? (Test with some small script...)
I assume this issue (and sql error) also happens while in combination with that reverse ORDER BY thing in the config...

In the static pages settings, change the path of the page from /index.php?/page/... to /page; remove the index.php-part.

Yes, it was changed.

mod_rewrite works so far and it is loaded by the webserver.

Hmpf, that means I have to find all blog articles that link to static pages?
That's bad.

You must have changed something essential, since staticpage nav link
http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/index. ... print.html etc do work now as expected... without the need to change to a nice url in that staticpage config.
...and still nice Urls do not work
http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/pages/imprint.html ending with an error
Not Found
The requested URL /index.php was not found on this server.
But your index.php is at /dirk/blog/
Having this, I would request to have a look into your htaccess file, to see what these rules
Code: Select all
ErrorDocument 404 /dirk/blog/index.php
DirectoryIndex /dirk/blog/index.php
look like...

No, the old links seem to remain working. I had the same situation in my own blog. Just try it out with one of the pages.

Yes, I removed the "Use Apache mod_rewrite" option without disabling mod_rewrite.
Where did you get the URL from?
http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/index. ... print.html is working.

I tried and it did not work.
With the option "Use Apache mod_rewrite" static pages do not work anymore. With the option turned off they are working.

Mod_rewrite was on and working and you changed the link in the staticpage-configuration itself?

ok thats why...
Lux wrote:Where did you get the URL from?
Nowhere. I created it manually to test.... since this is the nice url way which will happen with mod_rewrite ON.

Yeah, and that is the fault, since this root .htaccess overwrites or overrules your /dirk/blog/.htaccess file, which is the Serendipity blog .htaccess file. Have a look into this.
This will certainly be the main issue... and might be as well this, from your front-root-index page:
http://dirk.deimeke.net/ linking internally to
http://www.deimeke.net/dirk/blog/

Yes, exactly. This option does not seem to affect existing pages.
Correction: There is no global setting for static pages. In all blogs I have around 60 (or 80) static pages, I don't have the energy to correct each and every one and all pages and articles that refer to those.

Hm. Don't like ...
dirk.deimeke.net is a separate subdomain, which is redirected via apache config to the blog. This is out-of-scope, since this generates a new http-request on the client side with the correct domain.
But, if the root .htaccess overwrites the local config in the directory this is senseless, isn't it?
This is from the blog.
Code: Select all
# BEGIN s9y
DirectoryIndex /dirk/blog/index.php
php_value session.use_trans_sid 0
php_value register_globals off
<Files *.tpl.php>
deny from all
</Files>
<Files *.tpl>
deny from all
</Files>
<Files *.sql>
deny from all
</Files>
<Files *.inc.php>

</Files>
<Files *.db>

# END s9y

What do you mean by "Hm. Don't like ..." ??
Your blogs htaccess will need this too. I presume.
Code: Select all

and

This all is missing. This is the reason why you never have a successfull rewrite.
