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 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.

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?

Is there a wildcard redirect so any internal page is redirected to include the /bv ?

I've moved to the greener pastures of Nginx, and therefore I'm a but rusty in Apache config (which is messy), but I presume that what you "really" want is an alias and not a redirect. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html You don't want to reflect in the URI the file system mapping of the document root. Is it? --- appa
