I have a site (the-tack-shop.co.uk
) in which I'm testing my e-commerce framework on. I was trying to test payment using a shared SSL: https://web43.secure-secure.co.uk/the-tack-shop.co.uk/.
I had to change my htaccess
file to work with the SSL:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} secure-secure\. [NC]
RewriteBase /the-tack-shop.co.uk/
RewriteRule ^[a-z0-9\-_/\.]*$ index.php [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} the-tack-shop\. [NC]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^[a-z0-9\-_/\.]*$ index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^.* http://www.google.com [L]
This will work with the SSL domain, but not with the normal domain. Comment out the second rewritebase and it will work on the normal domain but not on the SSL domain.
Can anybody please tell me where I am going wrong?

Apache is perfectly capable of doing what you are asking, however, the RewriteBase directive is not the prescribed way of achieving your desired results.
You have two options:
Instead of using RewriteBase, just specify the base path in your
RewriteRule
declarationsCreate separate NameVirtualhost declarations instead of relying upon a catch-all
