htaccess gurus...check this out!!!

12-29-2008, 03:07 PM

Lets say you have an image at

domain.com/images/hello.jpg

Now you put a htaccess redirect in the domain.com/images folder pointing to :

domain.com/deleted/sorry.jpg

To me this means that when a surfer tries to load hello.jpg they end up
getting "sorry.jpg".

No problem right?

Well what do you think of this quote from a server tech :

The code you are using is likely not going to work right, since you are redirecting them to another image on the same domain, that's going to create an endless loop as it tries to redirect.

So the poll question is :

What would you do upon reading that information.

17 Voters

Never redirect any file to a differrent file that domain

1 vote

Shoot yourself in the head because you didn't think of that

Why is "test it and see for myself" not an answer? Would take all of what 2 minutes?

Looks like it would redirect and if the file sorry.jpg isn't in the deleted directory then you'd get a 404. I don't see a loop problem. Of course the 1 one way to take down your site is to mess up the .htaccess.

I already know the answer, it's a poll to see what you know and what you would have
done upon hearing that quote above.

thanks for playng.

It's possible that the tech is actually right, can't tell for sure without seeing exactly what code you are using... but why are you asking your host for opinion on this anyway?

I didn't ask them that, the email just came from another question.

Dude, don't think too hard on this. You need to redirect on the same domain just
to have a 404 page. That's not a loop. Everybody would be in a fucking loop if
that were true.

If it were a loop then my server would be in a billion loops by now since that code
is running this very second for the last 5 years on the server!

It's only a loop if you redirect to the same exact file;
or redirect to the same directory while redirecting every request to that directory.

I can't even believe I'm explaining this.

You redirect on your own domain all the time!!!

Yeah, you'd never tell a client that crap I'm sure.

BTW: The person who said that is the same one who said my tube script was a problem.

I'm getting a refund though.

A powerful idiot though.

He convinced me to give up on selling my tube script.
I mean, people wanted to host with them because of the low price.
That was the only reason I got an account there to begin with.
I decided that trying to undo the bullshit he'd tell clients was costing me
more support hours than the money was worth.

It was like Bush and Colin Powell and Powell just gave the fuck up!

Thanks.

I still have my original host though.

I pay 3 times more for less than 1/3 the bandwidth and only 1/12 the storage and
it's worth every damn cent to pay it.

Super cheap hosting is like begging to fail.

But hey man, so many "bros" were bragging about it so I had to try it.

Ya never know when someone might rise to actually deliver the service for these rediculously low prices.
So far, I have yet to see that happen though.

If it's too good to be true......

I presume by "htaccess guru" you mean "mod_rewrite guru", but I can't tell becuase you have neither posted anything that would go in an .htaccess file, nor have you posted anything related to mod_rewrite.

And what exactly do you mean by "htaccess redirect"? I can think of a number of ways to redirect something, but we can't make the same interpretation the tech did without SEEING what he saw and it is pretty trivial to create an endless loop with mod_rewrite. So let's see the code, and we'll judge for ourselves.

I do realize this thread is a hosting troll, but if you are going to do a hosting troll at least do it right. Show us the code and let all the "htaccess gurus" meditate on it. All this thread has done so far is make you look ignorant.

In the domain.com/image folder in htaccess :

AddHandler imagestuff .jpg
Action imagestuff /cgi-bin/morph.cgi

It's a redirect to a script that reads a file from another direcotry and prints that file as an image. The script does not redirect, it prints then exit();

But that is somewhat irrelevent to what the tech said.

Evaluating what the tech said alone is enough to throw your hands up without
ever seeing any code.

Take a look at the poll.

There was no need to include my actual response in the poll.

Gee, I must really want some laughs to have posted that.

So why am I typing this? Just to say that if it was you, sorry for rejecting the ICQ, cause Im not an ignorant cunt... But what I was going to ask yah 'off board' has already been answered 'on board'

Happy new year !

I didn't hit you up because I didn't know your ICQ.

No problem.

Sorry about the way I answered your question.
