Apache Redirect in htaccess to subdirectory

Question

I\'ve built an in house app that needs to start in public folder, directory structure is as follows

myapp/conf
myapp/tmp
myapp/doc
myapp/public
myapp/public/css
         


        

Answer 1

Try

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /myapp/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/public/
RewriteRule (.*) public/index.php/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^$ public [L]

The main thing is you need to change the base to your app name. Then the rules can remain the same. The condition is needed to prevent redirect looping. But you probably won't need it if you have an .htaccess file handling requests inside /public/.
