Redirect Loop

Redirection limit for this URL exceeded. Unable to load the requested page. This may be caused by cookies that are blocked.

This is the error that I get when I try to load a perfectly normal website which has created a redirect in their cPanel to redirect to a directory on their website.

In the .htaccess:

Code:

RewriteEngine on

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName domain.com
AuthUserFile /home/username/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/username/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com$
RewriteRule ^.*$ "http\:\/\/domain\.com\/cubecart\/index\.php" [R=301,L]

I have contacted cPanel and they say that this is a litespeed error rather than anything they can support/fix. Is this "RewriteRule" buggy in litespeed... and what can I do to fix this and get the redirect working?

Thank you very much!

[/CODE]

This will cause infinite redirect:

Code:

http://domain.com-->http://domain.com/domain.com-->http://domain.com/domain.com/domain.com/...

try: change last RewriteRule to

Code:

RewriteRule ^.*$  /cubecart/index.php [L]

Hi,

Thanks for the response! That kind of works but it shows the content of /cubecart whilst staying on the main domain which breaks some of the images etc.

How can I make it fully redirect the URL to /cubecart?

Thanks again.

can't get out a good Rewrite Rule at the moment

there is one workaround may work in your case.
create a index.html in your document root:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=cubecart/index.php">
</head>
</html>

I know that is an option but I am looking for a way to do it by .htaccess which should work fine in Litespeed... are you saying I cannot do this?

Thanks.

how about this one? just one line:

Code:

RewriteRule ^/$  http://domain.com/cubecart/index.php [L]
