    • Rewrite Base Directive Error Message

    Posted by John Morris posts: 758 United States

    Installing tiki on it's own domain with sefurl enabled, this issue does not appear, but if I install a tiki in a sub directory, acme.com/tiki with sefurl enabled,
    Then I get this error message:

    Warning
    The RewriteBase directive seems not to be set up correctly. This is required for sefurl to function correctly.
    The current value in .htaccess is / but the base url for this site is /main/

    I have followed instructions for enabling sefurl by renaming _htaccess to .htaccess without success, and I have modified per the error message and .htaccess to:

    Copy to clipboard
    # If Tiki is installed in a subdirectory of the web root, then customize and enable it below.
    RewriteRule ^(.+[^/])/$  /main/HomePage [R=301,L]


    /main/ is the subdirectory in the root where tiki is installed.

    this occurres with tiki 17 and 18

    Hi John,
    what you are looking for in .htaccess is RewriteBase, not RewriteRule directive. Modify the RewriteBase only to /main/.

    HTH, luci
