Hey all,
A while back I asked about forms that take credit card info
and https. I have always put such forms behind SSL, but a site
I have been asked to do maintenance work on did not, and after
responses from the list and at my recommendation they
installed an SSL and I modified the code to call https when it
hits that form, so that part is okay.
But now I have a problem implementing this on their
development site, which is just a duplicate code base inside a
directory public_html/_dev and a domain name dev.sitename.com,
instead of sitename.com.
The problem is, and I believe it may be the .htaccess file,
redirecting the https pages to the live site. In other words,
I'm trying to test something on the dev site in the shopping
cart, but when I click a button that takes it to the CC form,
hence https, although the URL says,
https://dev.sitename.com/... I can tell it is actually on the
live site because the code that executes is the old code on
the live site, not the new code on the development server.
I suspect the .htaccess file, which looks thusly...
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
Options +FollowSymLinks
IndexIgnore */*
# Turn on the RewriteEngine
RewriteEngine On
# Rules
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . index.php
Now I'm no expert at these rewrite rules, and sometimes have
to take several Valium, a shot of vodka, and weep for hours
after working with them (okay, that was a bit of hyperbole),
but it looks like any URL it cannot identify gets routed to
index.php, and that is because index.php evaluates and
processes URLs like
sitename.com/shirts/mens/
... and so forth.
Question is, am I on the right track suspecting the rewrite
rule for redirecting the https pages to the live site, and if
so, anyone see a fix for this? Again, hyperbole aside, I'm no
expert at rewrite rules.
Much thanks. Any help, as always, is greatly appreciated.
