([^/]+/)*The password protection on your test site is very important. You don't want Google indexing and ranking those pages (duplicates, test pages, experiments), so keep all search engines out.
and it gives me 404 on the main url and all subdirectories
if i use http://www.example.com/index.php i do get the correct page, but any http://www.example.com or with a subdirectory/ i get the 404
where am i going wrong?

[edit reason] RewriteCond pattern corrected as noted below. [/edit]
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
If .php then change the references in the both redirect and the DirectoryIndex directive.
other sites are still looking for the index.html thats why i need the .htaccess
If i try to call a index.html it gives me a 404 but if i call a inex.php its fine and just a subdirectory/ is fine
i need to redirect any .html called paged to the folder/ so the new index.php pages can be found
does that make any sense (im so confused)(help)
DirectoryIndexTo redirect both index.html and index.php to / for both root and for folders, change the \.html or the \.php to this:
\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)That will redirect all of the index URLs to strip off the filename leaving the URL to end the folder name with a trailing slash.
.
If you need to also redirect other .html URLs back to the folder level, you'll need a separate rule for that too. This one will need to allow a wildcard for the filename and have just .html for the allowed extension in the pattern.
this it what i up loaded
Directoryindex index.php
#
# redirect all <subdirectory>/index.html requests to <subdirectory>/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^/]+/)*index\.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*)index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
and if i try to get folder/index.html i still get a 404 instead of being redirected back to the folder/
im so lost

The change of code in place of \.html needs to go in both lines - both the condition and the rule.
Directoryindex index.php
#
# redirect all <subdirectory>/index.html requests to <subdirectory>/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^/]+/)*index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*)index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)$ http://www.example.com.com/$1 [R=301,L]
im still getting 404 s with this when i try http://www.example.com/index.html or http://www.example.com/folder/index.html
if i use index.php i get the page

Paul
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
#
RewriteRule ^foo\.html$ [google.com...] [R=301,L]
that one is working
this one Im not sure about
Directoryindex index.php
#
# redirect all <subdirectory>/index.html requests to <subdirectory>/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^/]+/)*index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*)index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)$ http://www.example.com.com/$1 [R=301,L]
that one being i really don't know what the script should do Im not sure its working
if i type http://www.example.com or http://www.example.com/ or even http://www.example.com/index.php i get the correct page how ever if i type http://www.example.com/index.html i get a 404 i want it to go back to the root or the folders root
will that code do it?

Are there any intermediate codes sent back before the 404, or is the 404 in the very first response?
You'll also likely need to remove the / highlighted here:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^/]+/)*[b]/[/b]index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)\ HTTP/[edited by: jdMorgan at 1:21 pm (utc) on Mar. 10, 2009]
[edit reason] This is the correction to code posted above. [/edit]
404 is the first
do you mean foxfires error console? i dont see anything labeled Live http headers
You will *definitely* need to remove that slash!
Jim
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^/]+/)[b]*/i[/b]ndex\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)\ HTTP/ RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^/]+/)*index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)\ HTTP/

[edit] Clarification of correction noted above. [/edit]

I am confused as to why one code would work but this one seams to do nothing at all.
Am I Missing something on the .htaccess page?
Directoryindex index.php
#
# redirect all <subdirectory>/index.html requests to <subdirectory>/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^/]+/)*index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*)index\.(html?如hp[45]?吆aj]spx?)$ [my-url.com.com...] [R=301,L]
thats everything on the whole .htaccess
Make sure you change the ¦ pipe ¦ symbols back to be solid pipes (not the broken ones shown in the forum).
Flush your browser cache before testing. The cache will still contain the old error page.
What can I do?
Please help!
Paul

I note that the "RewriteEngine on" directive is missing, and "Options +FollowSymLinks" may also be required.
