Sample PunBB 1.3 Board (Page 1 of 2)

blank page for me.

blank for me too

I have a latest revision public install of Pun1.3, but the rewriting-url part doesn't work for most of the things yet, so it's not usable. If you really want to, you can check it out: http://pun13.dorem.info

Well, check it for yourself on the URL above . The most obvious is the login, but other too (most of the 2nd level admin, so that without editing the database I can't turn clean url off; the /post/ one, etc.).

I don't know if it's the rewrite rule per se, how the rewrite rule are interpreted on my server, if it's on the php frontend, backend, etc. Without a bugtrack, I won't test too deep.

Nope, some things don't work on the PHP side. Maybe it's this, maybe something else. But the rules are here.

You don't have the same setup as TextDrive do you, they require an addition to the rewrite rules.

Nope it's an shared OVH host, not a TXD one. If needed I will test a TXD one, but I'm not using it anymore.

There's maybe a small specific OVH setting for rewrite (adding a slash before the target of the rule, as in /login.php and not login.php) but I've tested with it too. And yup, any other software rewrite rules I tried worked on these area (Textpattern, Mediawiki, etc.).

It's probably either something missing on the PHP end, or a greedy parameter misunderstood by my Apache (1.3.x) as it was before.

I'm pretty sure the second parameter (resource being re-written to) needs to be rooted. 

RewriteRule ^index.html$ / [L]

works on my server where as

RewriteRule ^index.html$ index.php [L]

does not

assuming this is because / is present at the end of the request, and since the file is relative, the server's assuming we're in /login/ instead of /.

Already tested Smartys, no effect. Same for MadH, I tested RewriteRule ^login/?$ /login.php [L,NC] and it's the same error.

/login.html works too by the way, it's just this final / Apache thinks it's a subdirectory and search for a file there.

setting rewrite base works on my server (not testing 1.3 but just in general)...

and

It may not be an Apache, mod_ort or host bug. I just checked and Wordpress Mu for example has extensive use of domain.tld/string/ URI (rewritten of course), and it works perfectly on my host. Meaning, the issue is not per se the final slash.

So there's probably something about the Pun1.3 rewrite rule, or the PHP handler behind.

Here's the Mu rewrite rules:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule . - [L]
RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
