[SOLVED] Helicon Ape does not work on our site without www

[maliwik Profile]

We have Helicon Ape and our site does not work without the www prefix. I've tried the numerous rewrite conditions to make it auto point to www but none of them work. I've also made sure the non-www version in IIS is added to the list.

Does Helicon Ape just not support this?

Hello,

Here's the proven example from ISAPI_Rewrite 3 FAQ:

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} (on)?
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} ^(?!www\.)(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)
RewriteRule .? http(?%1s)://www.%2%3 [R=301,L]

Make sure mod_rewrite module is un-commented in httpd.conf

In case this wouldn't work, please, provide rewrite.log for the testing request. To enable logging, un-comment 2 corresponding lines in httpd.conf.

Regards
Andrew

It still doesn't seem to be working. Here's my .htaccess file for our site (I'm not too proficient in regular expressions so it might be inefficient):

# Helicon Ape version 3.0.0.76

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/google.+\.html [NC]
RewriteRule .? - [L]

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} (on)?
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} ^(?!www\.)(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)
RewriteRule .? http(?%1s)://www.%2%3 [R=301,L]

It's weird because rewriting works perfectly when you have the www. If you omit the www, the site doesn't work at all (just shows a Cannot display webpage error).

Hello,

Strange that you've specified the rule to be on top of your .htaccess file, but in the log it's the last one.
However, here're the lines that specify what happened with the request:

Code: Select all

applying pattern .? to uri
RewriteCond: input='Off' pattern='(on)?' => matched
RewriteCond: input='www.northwoodstoday.com' pattern='^(?!www\.)(.+)$' => not-matched

So initial request was already with "www" and it didn't match the pattern, so the log didn't help at all. I wonder if it's Ape that can help, because if it's IIS settings... there's not much we can do.

p.s. one day I used http://wwwizer.com/ to set up smth like this using DNS forwarding

Could it be some other rule in my .htaccess conflicting with it?

I don't think it's our server - we have the address specified both with the www and without.

I just posted the partial log. The log is over 6mb from start to finish. I actually switched the www rewrite rule down to the bottom which is why the log shows that one at the bottom.

[HeliconAndrew]

To avoid conflicts, simply put it on top... it will be processed and applied first.

I've tried removing all of the rules except the following:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} (on)?
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} ^(?!www\.)(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)
RewriteRule .? http(?%1s)://www.%2%3 [R=301,L]


And it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

I've disabled and re-enabled Helicon Ape for the site in question. Now it seems to be working.
