GetSimple Support Forum

hi there i figure out a problem in htaccess file of getsimple i.e.,
i want my domain to always go to www.domain.com instead of domain.com

so i added a line of code in htaccess file which is

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

but after adding this code the site goes down... any input on this please

There is no hosting panel where you can define which domain (with or without www) points to which directory on the server?

For .htaccess, read here;

http://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/85/U...w-or-https

they show this way:

Code:
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

you see the difference?

your line ends with "domain\.com$" but the working example which I tested, ends with "example.com [NC] [NC]"

test it out!

I'd normally expect something to have been logged by the web server in its error log that gives more detail about what it's objecting to.
