up 500 Internal Server Error when using .htaccess with RewriteEngine up vote 21 down vote favorite 5 I am on the shared host Bounceweb and I am trying to add some rewrite rules to make my links look prettier. One of these rules is to make the url: http://mysite.com/upload point to: http://mysite.com/upload.php. I have this in my .htaccess file: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^upload$
Htaccess Rewrite Rule
upload.php but all it's giving me is a 500 Internal Server Error. I looked at my logs and this comes up a lot: [alert] [client 81.179.29.185] /home/minecraf/public_html/.htaccess: Invalid command '\xef\xbb\xbfRewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration Does this mean my host doesn't support .htaccess? Pretty lame if they don't. I've already tried changing the permissions of .htaccess to 777 and it doesn't help. Thanks! .htaccess mod-rewrite share|improve this question asked Mar 21 '11 at 2:46 Josh 46641232 add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 28 down vote accepted \xef\xbb\xbf are three invisible junk characters (at least from Apache's perspective) called the Unicode BOM, or byte order mark. Apache thinks that those characters are part of the command that follows right after. This is what you see in the log, though the characters are escaped so they're visible to the naked eye. \xef\xbb\xbfRewriteEngine In your editor, especially if your editor is Notepad, make sure you're saving your file without a BOM. This should be selectable in the save as dialog or elsewhere. share|improve this answer answer

Read them. –Quentin Jun 14 '13 at 11:58 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 9 down vote accepted Your code is guaranteed to generate 500 internal server error because it is causing infinite looping. Reason is that your matching URI pattern is: ^directory/(.*)$ Which matches your URLs before and after rewrites. And once it reaches max allowed internal rewrite limit Apache throws 500 internal server error and bails out. Change your code to this: Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews # Turn mod_rewrite on RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^directory/(.*)$ /directory/index.php?id=$1 [L,QSA,NC] Above code has an extra RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f that will make sure to disallow subsequent execution of RewriteRule after first time since /directory/index.php will be a valid file. share|improve this answer answered Jun 14 '13 at 12:39 anubhava 384k32160232 1 That is brilliant!

Here is an example that would stop since the file get.php exists. Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /get.php?action=$1 [L] To further explain, what happens in your example is that it redirects to get.php over and over and over, because your rule tells anything not a / to internally redirect but not to stop if a file exits, and since get.php also falls under your regex expression, it would redirect again. What the 2 conditions I have added does is, it tells it to stop if a file or folder exists. If you're using HTTPD version 2.4+ you could have simple used the flag [END], like this: RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /get.php?action=$1 [END] Which tells the server to stop any further redirects. share|improve this answer edited Aug 29 '14 at 12:32 rahilwazir 6,575112442 answered Aug 29 '14 at 12:25 Prix 14.1k939100 WOW, IT fixed :D Tnx alot. –Pafo Aug 29 '14 at 12:29 2 +1 for the [END] –rahilwazir Aug 29 '14 at 12:31 ofcorse , It has a time limit to be approved ;) –Pafo Aug 29 '14 at 12:32 1 @RahilWazir thanks for linking it ;) –Prix Aug 29
