[Resolved] Rewrite and index.html

Hi,

My website used rewrite mode and all is ok. Except index page : if I reach to my website www.buromatique.fr, home page is displayed. If I reach using www.buromatique.fr/index.php, no soucy. But if I reach using www.buromatique.fr/index.html, IE return an error string (aproximatively, "The site require is not availabled or can not be found.") and Firefox propose me to download the page.

Below my .htaccess :


Thanks for your help.

Do you by any chance have an index.html file in your root directory?

This may also be the result of server configuration. Index.html is usually the name for the default page. It might be safer to rename that to home, or even accueil.

Did you try downloading the file to see what it was? I got this:



which is a live page. I don’t speak French so I’m not sure what it’s about.

I have renamed it 2 days ago, when I tried to put online my website. There is non index.html at the root of my website, only index.php
In my .htaccess, I specified this
So my default index page is with php extension.
After downloaded the file, I can say you that I have same things. I don’t know why memo/index.html appears. This page (memo/index.html) is page put by my hoster to help me to retrieve easly links for admisnitration (phpmyadmin, quota...). You can read this page in english with google if not you can make down the page : second part is in english

I just try to rename memo directory to memo.old for test. Index.html (after download) has already the same content...)

Thanks for your reply.

Well, somewhere you’ve got something generating that redirection page for every request for index.html. Perhaps it’s something your hosting company is doing through their server configuration.

I don’t know why but now it is ok.
I think there are like a cache on the server that return always this page ...
I emptied cache of my browser and this is the most bizzard, you have had the same problem on my website whereas you have not visit my site, no ?

Thanks for all.
