Hi: I'm trying to figure out a solution to a rewrite (using mod_rewrite) issue and can't quite seem to get it right. I'm hoping someone here will be generous with advice.
Situation: - I've moved my site to a hosting provider who does not allow me access to the httpd.conf and other configuration files, only to .htaccess - I have a site (http://example.tld) which also has one subdomain (specified as an A record, but tried this as a CNAME also) - http://blog.example.tld - http://blog.example.tld points to {example.tld docroot}/blog - I want to rewrite all requests to http://blog.example.com/* as http://example.com/blog/* (that I know how to do and it's working). In order to do this, I need to have a directive in the .htaccess file in {example.tld docroot}/blog of "ReWriteBase /" Problem: - It's a wordpress blog and wordpress wants its own ReWrite rules in the .htaccess file. - Wordpress "knows" it's base URL is http://example.com/blog/ - Wordpress needs the ReWriteBase directive to be "ReWriteBase /blog/" Question: Can I have both ReWriteBase directives in one .htaccess file? (I've received a 500 error every time I've tried, but I may be doing something very wrong) and if so, how? If not, is there a better way to handle this? I'm open to suggestion... Thank you for any help you can offer! Details: Apache 1.3.33 on Linux (flavor unclear...hosting provided)
