Not really complaining, since this is a free host and most free hosts don't offer .htaccess, but mod_rewrite would be nice.

Well, I'm trying to get my site to be able to do this...http://www.tkdami.net/~dgames/download/css/maps/...but I don't how to left a specific directory be accessible publicly...or that indexing isn't enabled..

This is disabled so people aren't using the hosting purely for file hosting.

[b]" 530 login authentication failed "[/b] -- what does this mean?

...means your login info is incorrect.
Recheck your FTP username and password.
The host should be: username.server.com (i.e fun.zxq.net or fun.vndv.com; depends on your site's URL)
Username is your URL without .server.com (i.e if your host is fun.vndv.com, then your username is fun)
Password is your password.

hi..

im getting 500 Internal Server Error

can i use php_value register_globals 1 for vndv.com's server? because it works fine in zxq.net's server

thnks in advance..

i cannot verify my site with google cause 404 returns 200 for non existent files also. can somebody help?

Some one tell me why this is not allowed:



Would be nice to make my site search engine friendly. I really don't see why this would compromise any? Was wondering why is this not permitted.

Is the PATH_INFO server variable available?

And can I use the .htaccess file to force a mimetype for a file without an extension?

>And can I use the .htaccess file to force a mimetype for a file without an extension?

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#defaulttype

It worked for me.

please enable mod_rewrite

I can't use .htaccess and .htpasswd, please help!!

What are you trying to do, and what error are you getting? The contents might also be helpful.

swordz

Well, it's 500 Internal Server Error!!
I can set the password before but not now....

500 error probably means you've made a mistake in your htaccess. Is it possible to have a look at your code?

Hi, I am new and wanted to set up .htaccess and .htpasswd.

1) I created .htaccess and placed in the directory I wanted to protect : http://myweb.vndv.com/member/

2) I then created .htpasswd and placed in the same directory(Or should I put it in the root directory?)

My .htaccess file:
AuthType Basic
AuthName http://myweb.vndv.com/member/
AuthUserFile http://myweb.vndv.com/.htpasswd

require valid-user

When I tried to access the member directory, the authentication did pop up, but after I typed in the username and password, the box will not go away.
I cannot access member subdirectory.

Can somebody help me? My .htpasswd is in the form "user:password". Should password be encrypted?

Thanks All who will help me!

NB: http://myweb.vndv.com is just made up only. Please do not access it. But my problem is REAL. Pls help. 8-(

Yes, your password should be encrypted, this should help : http://home.flash.net/cgi-bin/pw.pl

If the username / password is incorrect it won't go away until you click cancel.

Hi there, I am new to Zymic, and I find it's features very attractive. I just want to ask: can I have my own custom 404 and 403 error pages using .htaccess? Thanks!

Yes, this is allowed.

hi,

i uploaded my site. it's uuuq.com server. the site requires mod_rewrite.
here is my .htaccess



the index.php is loaded correctly but when i type "daemon.uuuq.com/index" => this is same as index.php
The server returns http 404 error.

what's wrong with my .htaccess?

I want to add this:

to my .htaccess but there is no htaccess file on my server, even when I search for it using hidden files.

Do I just make a new one or what?

If there's no .htaccess, yes. If it fails to make the file, there probably is a .htaccess, whether you can see it or not.

swordz

I uploaded .htaccess file to uuuq.com server. But rewrite just doesn't work. Could you please say what is wrong. It is working fine on local web server.
p.s. it seems that .htaccess is not enabled for my account. Because than i tried to put some garbage in it. it doesn't end with 500 error

Hi!
I have the same problem that TKF.
I've recently uploaded a site in uuuq.com and htaccess doesn't work for me either.
Does anyone know if htaccess is enabled in uuuq or not?

I don't think it is.

hello,

I just recently launch my site here..

the url is http://smalltym.uuuq.com the PROBLEM is

when I try entering www.smalltym.uuuq.com the page was not found..

any help here...

Seriously, guys. Enable .htaccess on UUUQ.

is .htaccess not enabled on uuuq then?

anyway, im using uuuq and when i upload my .htaccess file, it says, upload successful, but when i look for the file within the server, its not there, is this normal?

And what will be with .htaccess?

if u check previous posts you'll find your answer.. (tip: files starting with a dot(.) are hidden files)

and seems that .htaccess it is not working in uuuq servers

Hi there, I have a site at uuuq.com and i have uploaded .htaccess file for my own custom 404 error pages in the root itself. but its not working. Is this because of any mistake in my code(given below)

ErrorDocument 404 http://www.nigil.uuuq.com/404.html

Site address: http://www.nigil.uuuq.com

Is .htaccess is enabled in uuuq. If this is not allowed in uuuq please let me know i will remove it.

Any help will be apreciated,

Thanks in advance,

Nigil.

Does Zymic / uuuq let you have a 404 page?
And, Is the re-write engine [ON] or [OFF]?

Try going to the site without the www. (http://smalltym.uuuq.com). Unless the @ entry in the DNS is set up with www as an alias, the www subdomain will not work.

If you assign a domain name to your account, then you can set it up to work with or without the www.

In command promt of FTP-client type "DELE .htaccess"

You can't see it. But it exists.

This is the first time I've used an .htaccess/.htpasswd file.
I have mostly used IIS so I just set the permissions in windows.

Anyway I made a folder in the root of my site called secure and one underneath it pass (/secure/pass)

I went online and generated an .htaccess and .htpasswd file.
I uploaded them to the server

Here are the contents:

.htaccess - in secure folder


.htpasswd - in pass folder



Now I'm prompted for a username/password but it won't accept it.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Kenny

Guys,

password protection for directories works on this hosting just as expected. There are exactly 2 reasons for 500 error when you're trying to use it:

1) bad .htaccess file
2) bad .htpasswd file

that's ALL.

.htaccess file that WORKS:



You should update the last line to show YOUR path to htdocs and protected dir whitin it.

Now, the .htpasswd (must be EXACTLY where you instruct the server to look for it in .htaccess file):



The tricky part is the garbage looking string. It's the ENCRYPTED password as it is returned by UNIX crypt() function. Plaintext passwords WON'T WORK. There are number of ways you can get your password encrypted. I usually log into my local linux server and use htpasswd utility that comes with apache. I believe there are online password encrypting tools that use the same algorythm that htpasswd does (in fact, it can handle several encryptions; this is the default).

When you have these two files properly done and at their place, it just works, that's all.

Is DefaultType enabled in .htaccess?
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/security.hiding.php shows some examples of this.

Help is .htaccess

Could you explain me please what should i do to clean index.php? from my urls or if the htaccess - fix dont work.
Thank you for your support.

austrismailitis

I need the rewrite function. Is this working??

took a look at the previous posts and I don't see the prblem with my .htaccess please let me know what I need to get mod_rewite to work
thanks in advance.

Why can not we use this rewrite mod !.. or How can we use ? do you know ?

Because I constantly receive a 500 error :X ...Somehow I could not do

I have launch my site recently http://mass-specc.zymichost.com/ and I always get a 500 Internal Service Error.

Can someone help me fix this error? I think this has something to do with .htaccess file that I uploaded.

Here is my .htaccess code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]


Any help would be very much appreciated.

Try setting a RewriteBase:

Thank you very much Sir! It works fine now.
More power to Zymic!
