I have deployed a React app with React Router to my Bluehost server, and need to configure the htaccess file to redirect all of my routed URLs (/portfolio, /about, etc) to index.html instead of trying to fetch a new file from the server and throwing a 404.
I have read about countless similar problems in which the solution seems to be to add this into your htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>
I tried this, but I am still getting 404's when I try to visit any page of my site directly that isn't the homepage. I'm wondering if there is anything else in my existing htaccess file that is preventing the above code from working?
There was some code already in there from Bluehost, and I see another IfModule statement, so I'm wondering if that one is overwriting the first one. However I am afraid to edit it and break something, as it clearly says "do not edit." Here is my full htaccess code:
Header always set Content-Security-Policy: upgrade-insecure-requests
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>
# php -- BEGIN cPanel-generated handler, do not edit
# Set the “ea-php74” package as the default “PHP” programming language.
<IfModule mime_module>
AddHandler application/x-httpd-ea-php74 .php .php7 .phtml
</IfModule>
# php -- END cPanel-generated handler, do not edit
# BEGIN WordPress
# The directives (lines) between "BEGIN WordPress" and "END WordPress" are
# dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters.
# Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten.
# END WordPress
Any ideas? I've double-checked that my BrowserRouter is set up correctly and also tried a few other htaccess configurations. I want to avoid using HashRouter or Node if possible but am getting frustrated. I can provide my React code as well if needed, but I'm pretty sure the error is not with the React setup.
You can create a virtual host file in the /etc/apache/sites-available folder and add this:
<VirtualHost *:8080>
ServerName example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/httpd/example.com
<Directory "/var/www/httpd/example.com">
...
RewriteEngine on
# Don't rewrite files or directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
# Rewrite everything else to index.html to allow html5 state links
RewriteRule ^ index.html [L]
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
This worked for me

I have a Wordpress site with a headless React frontend. With the default .htaccess file that Wordpress puts up on install, the site was not correctly handling requests to any page other than the root. Those requests ignored React altogether. I modified the .htaccess to point all requests to the index.html file like the following...
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>
This loads the React site just fine on all requests, but it's also failing on any api request to either wp-json or more importantly graphql. This means the page loads, but the content is essentially absent. How can I set up the .htaccess file to allow requests to those api endpoints on top of allowing the initial requests going to the index.html?
This seems to be working so far...
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^graphql(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>

How to redirect all API requests using .htaccess, while keeping asset requests intact?
I'm not sure I need that url=$1 part since I'm not using it elsewhere, but I'm not that good at regex and at least the request are getting handled correctly.
I'm currently running php on an apache server locally, with a React frontend.
This is how my current .htaccess is laid out:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^api/(.*)$ api/$1\.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/api.*?
RewriteRule ^ index.html [QSA,L]
The bottom condition is so that routing works in my React app. I'm then taking the production build and copying it into my htdocs.
The routing works, however, I want to be able to call the .php files inside my /api directory without using the file extension. So I want anything that comes after /api/ to be redirected to whatever is entered, followed by .php.
E.g. /api/authentication would go to /api/authentication.php, and /api/register would go to /api/register.php, and so on.
With this current setup, I'm getting a 500 internal server error when making requests to /api/authentication etc.
Is there something wrong with my .htaccess file?
Your first rule is looping as you're matching .*. You may use:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^api/(.+)$ api/$1.php [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule !^api index.html [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php$ [NC] will skip rewriting when a URI ends with .php.
I have deployed two react builds on cpanel, basically one is admin panel and second website like this:
admin folder consist of build of admin panel working on /admin route.
client folder consist of build of website working on / route.
My .htaccess Code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
# first check if request is in /client/
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/client%{REQUEST_URI} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/client%{REQUEST_URI} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /client/$1 [L]
# then check if request is in /admin/
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/admin%{REQUEST_URI} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/admin%{REQUEST_URI} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /admin/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
After long searching I found this code as solution for my app as two react apps are deployed in cpanel. The problem is that whenever I refresh on any route page gives 404 error although routes work perfect. Please Help.
I'm using these rules for my react applications, in my cases I have one react application not two
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>
I have an angular 2 app served on Angular 2. On the host, it is located at the document root and everything is working fine. I have an .htaccess file with:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>
Problem:
On my laptop, i have an Apache server (xampp) with document root as "
c:\users...\WebProjects
When i develop the site, i put the files in c:\users...\Projects\Projects1\dist
In this directory, i cannot get the website to work due to files/folders called not being in the root. ie Server is trying to load \css\app.css when it should be loading Projects1\dist\css\app.css
Can i write a specific .htaccess to be able to serve the app from that directory? (or something else without having to change the httpd.conf document root?)
thanks
you need to add the path in your .htaccess file and your index.html file like so:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /your/path/here/
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>
In index.html, you need to update the base href aswell to reflect the path like so:
<base href="/your/path/here/">
And that should do the trick :)
I'm trying to use AngularJs with html5mode enabled, and to be able to use it i need to enable a rewrite i need an .htaccess to point to the folder.
When going to the root index, there is no problem, everything works fine. But when i try to redirect to a subfolder where there is another section, i keep getting errors. For example, i have an admin section to publish news, etc.. So to access this portion of the app i need to go to a subfolder called /adm like this www.site.com/adm and this is where the errors starts.
This is my .htaccess file
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>
And this is the errors I'm getting:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token <
When looking further, i see this is point to the index on the root. I know it has something to do with the .htaccess file, but i don't how to create a rule to identify if it's a root folder or sub folder and create the proper rewrite rule.
Try this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(adm/)?index.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(adm/)?. /$1index.html [L]
</IfModule>
What this does is rewrite everything inside /adm/ to /adm/index.html and everything else to /index.html
