Request for Assistance with .htaccess File and Persistent Access Errors (403, 500, 505)

As I told you over email, you cannot restore it, and it’s not a problem, because the file doesn’t do anything important.

And no, I’m not going to ask a server admin to restore a missing file that doesn’t do anything.

If you want, you can just put the rules in your own htdocs directory.

Whatever issues you’re having, they are not caused by the default .htaccess file being missing.


Regarding 403 errors:

Regarding 404 errors:

HTTP 505 errors are not something typically returned by our server. Either there is something very wrong with your browser if it sends invalid HTTP requests, or the error is generated by your website code.
