Hello.
I remade my site this time in two languages, and I want the user can access the site in french just by clicking on a button which brings him to http://mydomain.rf.gd/fr, bu that does not work.
It’s written “403 forbidden”

My website URL is: http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd

I just made a new folder like this :

Please help me ! (and sorry for my bad english)

What are the contents of your .htaccess file in the htdocs folder?

Anthony-E-B · August 31, 2019, 1:22pm

ErrorDocument 400 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/400.html
ErrorDocument 401 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/401.html
ErrorDocument 403 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/403.html
ErrorDocument 404 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/404.html
ErrorDocument 503 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/503.html
Header set Cache-Control “max-age=0, no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate”
Header set Pragma “no-cache”
Header set Expires “Wed, 11 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT”
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]

I suggest also to add this line of code before RewriteRule on your .htaccess file:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

Unfortunately, that changed nothing.

Anthony-E-B · August 31, 2019, 1:26pm

Forget that, It worked ! Thanks you a lot ! But when I type http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/fr it doesn’t go to index.html file… So I guess i have to redirect to http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/fr/index ?

I don’t know, but you can try.

Anthony-E-B · August 31, 2019, 1:32pm

It works, but that’s not really convenient…
Do I have to create a new .htaccess in /fr folder to make that work ?

Ergastolator1 · August 31, 2019, 1:36pm

What are the contents of the .htaccess file in the /fr folder (if that file exists)?

Anthony-E-B · August 31, 2019, 1:51pm

That file do not exist, but I tried to put that :

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm index2.html

into it and it changed nothing.

Ergastolator1 · August 31, 2019, 1:52pm

For me it did redirect to index.html/index.html/index.html/index.html/index.html/index.html/index.html/ and again repeats, stopping the redirect after a point now. Did you try to use the “Redirects” tool to do this? If yes remove that redirect immediately, because it’s buggy.

Anthony-E-B · August 31, 2019, 1:57pm

I removed it from the htaccess of my htdocs main folder.
have you an idea of how could I do that ?

Ergastolator1 · August 31, 2019, 2:07pm

I tried to correct your .htaccess previous code with the following one:

ErrorDocument 400 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/400.html
ErrorDocument 401 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/401.html
ErrorDocument 403 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/403.html
ErrorDocument 404 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/404.html
ErrorDocument 503 http://anthony-e-b.rf.gd/503.html
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=0, no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"
Header set Pragma "no-cache"
Header set Expires "Wed, 11 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT"
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html [NC,L]

Anthony-E-B · August 31, 2019, 2:15pm

That don’t work.

The only thing that don’t work is the redirection of anthony-e-b.rf.gd/fr to anthony-e-b.rf.gd/fr/index.html, the directory index.

It work for the root htdocs folder but not for this subfolder…

Ergastolator1 · August 31, 2019, 2:16pm

For me it works now with that htaccess code. If you have problems, clear your browser cache.

Anthony-E-B · August 31, 2019, 2:19pm

Yeah !
Thank you a lot !! It work !
You’re saving me

Have a nice day
