If you have control of the apache configuration, please consider just changing where the sitename points to. That's a much more obvious way to accomplish this. Point it into the subdirectory. Doing redirects in the htaccess is not really the place to do it. On debian/ubuntu, this would usually be done in the /etc/apache2/sites-available. There are similar ways of doing it anywhere Apache is installed. -Randy On Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 9:36 AM, Ryan LeTulle <bayousoft@gmail.com> wrote:
Why do you need a redirect if your document root points into that folder (bv) already?

Thanks, but using document root gives me a 505 Internal server error.
Let me explain better: I've just inherited this site, so I'm not sure why it was set up this way, but the full Drupal site is in the folder: /bv (DocumentRoot /home/mysite/public_html/bv). I currently have the following rewrite in the .htaccess file within the /bv folder RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www. mysite.com/bv/$1 [L,R=301] so when I browse to the home page, www.mysite.com, I'm redirected to www.mysite.com/bv OR mysite.com I'm redirected to www.mysite.com/bv
BUT, when I browse to any internal pages without the /bv, I get a page not found. For example: www.mysite.com/contact will not redirect to www.mysite.com/bv/contact
Is there a wildcard redirect so any internal page is redirected to include the /bv ?

I may not totally understand your question but why don't you set your DocumentRoot to point into that folder?
*DocumentRoot "/path/to/bv"*

I have a Drupal site installed at /bv, so home page is www.mysite.com/bv I want to be sure when anyone tries www.mysite.com/anypage, they get redirected to www.mysite.com/bv/anypage Is this possible via htaccess?
I currently have this rewrite to be sure the www is included (needed for SSL): RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www. mysite.com/bv/$1 [L,R=301]
Thanks for any help.
