Friendly URLs have query string

I’m on Linux/Apache/MySQL running MODx 0.9.6.1p2.

I turned on Friendly URL’s with suffix set to .html and "Use friendly aliases" set to Yes (all other options set to No).

Changed ht.access file to .htaccess, contents are:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
ewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

It seems to be working in that my URLs do use <alias.html> for the filename (e.g., mysite.com/alias.html) but then it appends a query string. For example:

http://mysite.com/contact.html?phpMyAdmin=8cd485c54bc5d67ec86128b21d3e3ef9

http://mysite.com/approach.html?phpMyAdmin=8cd485c54bc5d67ec86128b21d3e3ef9

Also, index file still shows as index.php (with query string) instead of showing as index.html.

Happens in both Safari and Firefox on the Mac.

Any help would be appreciated...Thanks!

Are you by any chance running Plesk on that server?

Yes, Plesk is running...

Unfortunately, in places where this has occurred, the only common thread is Plesk. See http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,21033.msg163388.html#msg163388, which appears unresolved.

many thanks...I’ll follow-up with my hosting provider to see if they have any ideas...

Hey tsoulen,

I used to have this problem when migrating my sites from Plesk as well.  I never fixed the problem by myself, but I had a few other people fix it.  I just spoke with the person who fixed the problem and he said "I exported the database again, from the command line, instead of through phpmyadmin" ... hope that helps!
