Hi,
I have to do some changes in a web that is not written for me.
For this reason I've downloaded it and I want to test it in my computer.
I have to changes something to redirect some webs to localhost instead of server. But I can't do it.
I'll be very grateful if somebody can help me.

This is the code, I've commented the line thats works on the server, and below I've changed it, but it doesn't work. Thanks

RewriteEngine On

#rewritecond %{http_host} ^example.com [nc] 
rewritecond %{http_host} ^localhost$ [nc]

#rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [r=301,nc] 
rewriterule ^(.*)$ /$1 [r=301,nc] 

RewriteRule ^(pisos-casas|locales-oficinas|solares-parcelas|naves-industriales|parkings|inmuebles-singulares)/(.[a-zA-Z0-9_\-]{1,50})-(.*)_(.*)\.html$ /sabadell/index.php?cat=$1&lng=es&op=$2&od=$3&pg=$4 [L] #OPERACIONES
RewriteRule ^(pisos-cases|locals-oficines|solars-parceles|naus-industrials|parquings|immobles-singulars)/(.[a-zA-Z0-9_\-]{1,50})-(.*)_(.*)\.html$ /sabadell/index.php?cat=$1&lng=ca&op=$2&od=$3&pg=$4 [L] #OPERACIONES

The fault report "doesn't work" is completely useless to describe what you expected, what actually happened, and how that differed from what you wanted.

Delete line 3 and line 5.

When on live site activate line 2 and line 4.
When on localhost comment out line 2 and line 4.

The (.*)_(.*) part of the patterns should be ([^_]+)_([^.]+) or similar.

Sorry, you are right, the url it seems to be correct:

http://localhost:8887/camps/pisos-casas

In the server the url is:

http://www.example.com/pisos-casas

And the error is 404 that appears when I execute in localhost.

Thanks for your answer

welcome to WebmasterWorld, kambiz marta!

check your server access and error logs for clues about what caused that 404.

Sorry, but I can't understand what do you mean with The (.*)_(.*) part of the patterns should be ([^_]+)_([^.]+) or similar.

the .* pattern is "promiscuous, ambiguous and greedy" so g1smd is suggesting a more specific/efficient regular expression.

Hi,
I've restarted the service, and the Apache error.log says:

I have to changes something to redirect some webs to localhost instead of server.

Does "localhost" mean simply your own computer, or does it mean a pseudo-server such as WAMP? If WAMP (or MAMP or similar), do you have the basic version that only does one domain at a time, or the fancy version that comes with a fake DNS?

If a link includes the complete domain name, there is no way to intercept that. You can only intercept incoming links. UNLESS your setup includes the pseudo-DNS aspect.

Lines like this

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:26 +0100] "GET /fincamps/pisos-casas HTTP/1.1" 404 1279

together with your first post make it sound as if the real site does some rewriting. You need to have the identical rewrites in place on your offline test site.

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:26 +0100] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 404 1129

Well, that one's easy ;) Your browser is asking for the favicon-- as browsers always do-- and you probably didn't bother to put a copy on your offline site. May as well include one, just so the browser can stop asking for it. Otherwise it will make a fresh request on every single page load.

This

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /fincamps HTTP/1.1" 301 239
127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /fincamps/ HTTP/1.1" 302 664
127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /fincamps/es HTTP/1.1" 301 242
127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /fincamps/es/ HTTP/1.1" 200 18737

is an absolutely horrendous pattern. Is this the kind of thing you were called in to fix?

/fincamps 301 to /fincamps/ is legitimate IF the original request was a type-in AND "fincamps" is a real, physical directory. If both of those things are true, it is simply mod_dir doing its job. BUT if either of those things is not true, there is a problem.

/fincamps/ 302 to /fincamps/es followed by 301 to /fincamps/es/ cannot possibly be right. The first redirect is presumably triggered by something in the code that either detects system language or reads a cookie. But it should go straight to /es/ whether or not that is a real, physical directory.

I've got it identical
fincamps/pisos-casas is the page sabadell/index.php with parameters, which is redirected in htaccess. It works in the server, but not in localhost

/fincamps 301 to /fincamps/ is legitimate IF the original request was a type-in AND "fincamps" is a real, physical directory. If both of those things are true, it is simply mod_dir doing its job. BUT if either of those things is not true, there is a problem. fincamps is physical directory

Otherwise it will make a fresh request on every single page load. favicon.ico is in the root directory, I don't know why is asking for it. I've got exactly same files, same folders like in the server

Oops. When I said "can't be right" I didn't mean that your logs are in error. I meant that the redirect pattern can't be intentional. This may be the easiest issue to fix, so why not look into it first.

It works in the server, but not in localhost

Same version of apache on both? Same config file settings? Do other redirects and rewrites work as intended?

Sorry, you are right, the url it seems to be correct:
http://localhost:8887/camps/pisos-casas

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:26 +0100] "GET /fincamps/pisos-casas HTTP/1.1" 404 1279

how did the request for /camps/pisos-casas become a request to /fincamps/pisos-casas?

rewritecond %{http_host} ^localhost$ [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ /$1 [r=301,nc]

what are you trying to accomplish here?

rewritecond %{http_host} ^example.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

not related to your current problem but the directives above should be changed to something more like this:

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

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /fincamps/ HTTP/1.1" 302 664
127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /fincamps/es HTTP/1.1" 301 242
127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /fincamps/es/ HTTP/1.1" 200 18737

as suggested by lucy24, your language detection should do that 302 redirect to the language subdirectory /fincamps/es/ and not to a url that is missing the trailing slash.

I've got it identical fincamps/pisos-casas is the page sabadell/index.php with parameters, which is redirected in htaccess.

these rewrites won't match the pattern unless they are in the /fincamps/.htaccess file:

RewriteRule ^(pisos-casas|locales-oficinas|solares-parcelas|naves-industriales|parkings|inmuebles-singulares)/(.[a-zA-Z0-9_\-]{1,50})-(.*)_(.*)\.html$ /sabadell/index.php?cat=$1&lng=es&op=$2&od=$3&pg=$4 [L] #OPERACIONES RewriteRule ^(pisos-cases|locals-oficines|solars-parceles|naus-industrials|parquings|immobles-singulars)/(.[a-zA-Z0-9_\-]{1,50})-(.*)_(.*)\.html$ /sabadell/index.php?cat=$1&lng=ca&op=$2&od=$3&pg=$4 [L] #OPERACIONES

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:26 +0100] "GET /fincamps/pisos-casas HTTP/1.1" 404 1279
127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:26 +0100] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 404 1129

where is the error log entry showing the missing file?

there's still some missing information.
does your example.com server have .htaccess files in any subdirectories?

perhaps you should temporarily enable rewrite logging on your localhost server so you can see what's happening.
mod_rewrite logging:

Hi, thanks very much for your long answer. Now I have to understand it, for this I'll need little time because I know very little english.

For the moment I say this:

how did the request for /camps/pisos-casas become a request to /fincamps/pisos-casas? It's a mistake, fincamps is nothing, all should be camps

what are you trying to accomplish here?
rewritecond %{http_host} ^localhost$ [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ /$1 [r=301,nc]
Well, my idea is to execute this web in my computer. So I thought if I change this lines, instead of redirect to the server, redirect them to my localhost, for this reason I replaced
#rewritecond %{http_host} ^camps.es [nc] for this
rewritecond %{http_host} ^localhost:8887$ [nc]

and
#rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [r=301,nc] for this
rewriterule ^(.*)$ localhost:8887?/$1 [r=301,nc]

as suggested by lucy24, your language detection should do that 302 redirect to the language subdirectory /camps/es/ and not to a url that is missing the trailing slash.
127.0.0.1 - - [13/Mar/2013:15:02:22 +0100] "GET /camps/ HTTP/1.1" 302 664 The reason of this is because I was testing and changing the rules occurred this error

these rewrites won't match the pattern unless they are in the /fincamps/.htaccess file:
RewriteRule ^(pisos-casas|locales-oficinas|solares-parcelas|naves-industriales|parkings|inmuebles-singulares)/(.[a-zA-Z0-9_\-]{1,50})-(.*)_(.*)\.html$ /sabadell/index.php?cat=$1&lng=es&op=$2&od=$3&pg=$4 [L] #OPERACIONES RewriteRule ^(pisos-cases|locals-oficines|solars-parceles|naus-industrials|parquings|immobles-singulars)/(.[a-zA-Z0-9_\-]{1,50})-(.*)_(.*)\.html$ /sabadell/index.php?cat=$1&lng=ca&op=$2&od=$3&pg=$4 [L] #OPERACIONES These rewrites are in camps/.htaccess. Like in the server

does your example.com server have .htaccess files in any subdirectories?
Ops! I thought only htaccess file would be. I've searched remotes .htaccess and yes, I've found 5 more, saved in the language folders. The content of them is:
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /es/

RewriteRule ^(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)\.html$ /es/operacion.php?idn=$1&pag=$2&s=$3&f=$4 [L] #familia menu nivel 2

RewriteRule ^(.*)_(.*)_(.*)-(.*)\.html$ /es/operacion.php?idn=$1&pag=$2&s=$3&t=$4 [L] #tipo familia menu nivel 3

RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /es/detalle.php?id=$1 [L] # pagina detalle

Until night I can't do anything more. I must go to work.
Thanks very much for your help.

Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine On

Aaaaaaack!

:: runs around screaming in horror ::

Isn't there a Universal Rule that says if you meet something new in one place, you will promptly meet the same something new in three other places?

UNLESS those supplementary htaccess files also contain the line

RewriteOptions inherit

(can go either before or after "RewriteEngine on")
they will make it as if the top htaccess file doesn't exist for the affected directories. This applies only to mod_rewrite. Other things like access control or indexing are not affected.

Good morning and thanks again. I'm sad thinking I'll never be able to install this web in my computer. Why things are so difficult?

Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine On
:: runs around screaming in horror ::
I understand you don't like this, but you suggest to add RewriteOptions inherit to solve if the directories doesn't exist, isn't it?
I've added this line, before, after, and nothing, same error 404

Thanks for your patience.

what trace level are you using for rewrite logging?

(.*)_(.*)_(.*)-(.*)

Now, you know g1smd is not going to let you get away with that.

Remember that mod_rewrite and htaccess and Apache and all computers everywhere are very stupid. They can only think in one dimension. They can't say "I must leave room for a lowline and other stuff and another lowline and more stuff and a hyphen and..." It is all "Oh, oops, I gobbled up the whole thing and now I must spit it out and find a lowline." Unless you tell it not to be so greedy in the first place.

So what you need is probably something like

([^_]+)_([^_]+)_([^-]+)-(.+)

Never .* except maybe at the very end. Otherwise you could have an URL like

([^_]*)_([^_]*)_([^-]*)-(.+)
=
()_()_()-()
=
www.example.com/__-

I am sure you do not have anything like that. So you do not need to write code for it.

All those extra htaccess files may or may not have anything to do with your problem. It depends on where they are located, and what files are in those directories.

Oh and Psst! If you don't want to use the formatting buttons,* you can also type it out like

[quote]blahblah[/quote]

blahblah

* Or if you clicked Quick Reply so you don't see the buttons yet.

Thanks everybody for your help. I think I'm going to abandone update this web.
It's more than 15 days I try to execute this web downloaded from the server and I can't understand why is so difficult to do it.
I supose I'm not prepared for it.
Again, thanks very much for all

mod_rewrite logging:

Or:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewritelog

As I suspected, this cannot be set in htaccess. (Same goes for error logs and presumably all other logs.)

Thanks again, but your knowledge about this topic is very hight for me and some times I don't understand you.
I'm going to read some tutorials about htaccess if I'm able to really understand it. If I can and I solve my problem I'll will inform you

Ah, the proverbial fine print. I would never have seen that. PHP 5.4 too. I'm envious.

In 2.4 you can set log levels separately by directory, but it still can't be set in htaccess. And somewhere in this thread there was mention of five assorted htaccess files, which is five more than you'd have if it was your server in real life :(

Now, if you really do control the whole server, then you should absolutely get rid of all those additional htaccess files. It all goes in <Directory> sections inside the config file.

Hmmm Maybe I'm misreading your original question...

Did you copy someone else's website code to your local machine and now you're wanting their site to run locally?

If so then why not simply change your local HOSTS file so that ALL local page requests from your machine containing hostnames example.com and www.example.com automatically go to localhost (your local web server). Something like:

127.0.0.1 www.example.com
127.0.0.1 example.com

Oh, and by the way...

%{http_host} ^localhost$ [nc]

Setting aside the [NC] --which doesn't belong in this rule-- is that really your full hostname? On my setup there's a port number, so the full hostname is

localhost:8888

I think that's standard for MAMP/WAMP. Did you ever say what you're using for your local hosting?
