Re: Removing trailing slashes with query strings

[Dave Wreski <dwreski@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

[Tue Jan 16 08:55:13.289205 2024] [rewrite:trace1] [pid 904886:tid 904938] mod_rewrite.c(493): [client 68.111.193.42:0] 68.195.193.42 - - [webstage.example.com/sid#560ba7f01a68][rid#7f2b1c0bc210/initial] redirect to https://webstage.example.com/administrator/sqlantern-joomla/php?cms_settings [REDIRECT/301]

Based on those log entries, the rewrite worked fine.

Perhaps you're dealing with DirectorySlash here.

Notice the last line redirected to itself, causing an infinite loop of redirects.

I also wanted to add that, given the RewriteCond rule may be working correctly, how can I change it to accommodate query strings, or this particular query string?

Thanks,
Dave

If your rules are in .htaccess, the latter file will be parsed over and over until it stops matching, so use the appropriate RewriteCond to break that loop, or better yet, edit your vhost instead.

Yes, that's what I'm asking for help to do :-) This rewritecond is included in my vhost config using an Include statement.

Thanks,
Dave

What context is the include directive placed in?

It's in the VirtualHost directly, not in a Directory.
