Hi, I have a web page that works when you include the trailing slash: http://www.foo.com/blah/ But, if you leave the trailing slash off, it does not work and you get a 403 error: http://www.foo/com/blah So, I tried to fix this using some mod_rewrite rules, as follows: RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/$ RewriteRule (.*) $1/ [R,L] But it seems that the "-d" test is always failing. If I comment that part out, then *everything* gets a "/" appended to the end, which of course doesn't work. I tried using "!-f" instead, and got similarly bad results. I've Googled this and read lots of solutions that all look more or less like what I've posted above, but none of them seem to actually work. Is there something I'm missing here
It's a bad idea to rewrite in this case, since it can cause all kinds of problems with relative URLs.
Better to redirect: Redirect permanent /blah http://www.foo.com/blah/ cheers, Eric -- Eric Bowman Boboco Ltd ebowman@xxxxxxxxx http://www.boboco.ie/ebowman/pubkey.pgp +35318394189/+353872801532 --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
