Strange redirect problem

[lamnk]

Hi,

I have a blog at address http://www.lamnk.com/blog. A simple 301 redirect per index.php is placed at the domain root, i.e if visitors go to lamnk.com they will be redirected to my blog.

Everything works perfect until recently ( i don't know exactly when ) i found out that now every other files in every other folders on the domain redirect to my blog, what i don't want to happen, of course. For example if you go to http://www.lamnk.com/test.html then my blog is opened instead of the html file

Anyone has an idea ? Could it be because of .htaccess ?

Regards.

How did you set up the redirect? If you post the appropriate line from your .htaccess file we might be able to decipher what's going on.

Thanks, i did some investigation in the htaccess file. There is a rule like this:

RewriteRule .* index.php

Stupid me ! After delete that line all comes back to normal. Don't know why it's there though

Try using something more like WordPress's:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

Yours currently redirects everything to index.php. WordPress's allows the server to first check to see if there really is something there before redirecting.

Yes i did have that setup in the blog directory. Just don't know why there is a strange redirect in root directory.

I have a blog at address http://www.lamnk.com/blog... redirected to my blog.

(I)f you go to http://www.lamnk.com/test.html then my blog is opened instead of the html file...

Um...

First link goes to your blog.

Second link goes to "test test iosjdaoij".

Did you fix this already
