I tried this on my lighttpd.conf as stated in the tutorial but I can still access the mydomain.com (no www) URL

Code:

$HTTP["host"] == "^mydomain\.com$" {
server.document-root = "/home/mydomain/www"
server.errorlog = "/var/log/lighttpd/mydomain.com/error.log"
accesslog.filename = "/var/log/lighttpd/mydomain.com/access.log"
url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://www.mydomain.com/$1" )
}

and both www and no-www redirects me now to the server.document-root of the whole server ("/var/www/html/") and not "/home/mydomain/www"

I've also activated the mod_redirect module

any ideas?

Replace

Code:

url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://www.mydomain.com/$1" )

With

Code:

 $HTTP["host"] =~ "^www\.(.*)" {   url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://%1/$1" ) }

SO if use types url www.cricketnow.in she will go to http://cricketnow.in/

thanks for the reply

but I want the other way around

I want users who type http://cricketnow.in/ will be redirected to http://www.cricketnow.in/

In that case replace

Code:

url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://www.mydomain.com/$1" )

With

Code:

$HTTP["host"] =~ "^domain\.com$" { url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://www.domain.com/$1" ) }

Hi,

The redirect doesn't work in my wordpress.

when I type domain.com/date/day/post, it redirects me to www.domain.com/index.php/date/day/post, thus it gives me a 404 error. I think this is due to my rewrite rule that I Have.. but I have no idea how to fix it. I am currently running my wordpress on lighttpd.

Here is my rewrite rule:

url.rewrite = (
"^/(wp-.+).*/?" => "$0",
"^/(sitemap.xml)" => "$0",
"^/(xmlrpc.php)" => "$0",
"^/(news-sitemap.php)" => "$0",
"^/(google_adsense_script.htm)" => "$0",
"^(/(images|img|jcap|photo

/.*)$" => "$1",
"^/(.+)/?$" => "/index.php/$1"
)

Does anyone know how to fix it? I need to get this done asap, because google is reading doubt post (www.domain.com and domain.com)

Thanks in advance,
Calvin

Hi,

For domain.com/index.php/slug/.. you don't need url.rewrite

it is done by WP itself. If you need domain.com/slug/ (w/o index.php) you need mod_rewrite. Here is what I use for my own blog:
For wp seo clean urls:

Code:

server.error-handler-404 = "/index.php?error=404"

To redirect cyberciti.biz/urls/... to www.cyberciti.biz/url use as follows (replace it with your own domain name)

Code:

$HTTP["host"] =~ "^cyberciti\.biz$" { url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://www.cyberciti.biz/$1" ) }

Let me know if you need any help

hmm.. doesn't seem like it is working..

the redirect works if it was just simply domain.com.

But when I try to go to domain.com/slug/post. it redirects me to www.domain.com/index.php/slug/post, which doesn't exist, but www.domain.com/slug/post works. soo same problem still..

U need only 2 lines as pointed out by vivek, remove your rest of the junk (your mod_rewrite seo code) , here is code from one my own domain:

Code:

server.document-root = "/home/lighttpd/domain.com/http"
accesslog.filename         = "/var/log/lighttpd/domain.com/access.log"

  # WP seo urls
  server.error-handler-404 = "/index.php?error=404"
 
  # feedburner redirect
  $HTTP["useragent"] !~ "FeedBurner" {
   url.redirect = (
         "^/feed*" => "http://feeds.feedburner.com/myUrl",
         "^/\?feed=*" => "http://feeds.feedburner.com/myUrl"
   )
  }
 # redirect all  domain.com/2005/01/url/ to www.domain.com/2005/01/url/ 
 # send 301
 $HTTP["host"] =~ "^domain\.com$" { url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "http://www.domain.com/$1" ) }

So remove your junk code add as above also make change to wp by visiting yourblog.com/wp-admin/ > Options > permalink > Type new slug in "Custom structure" (e.g. /%category%/%postname%/ ) > Save changes and restart lighttpd. It should work now.

On a related note you can use google site ( http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ ) to force to use www.domain.com or domain.com only while indexing your blog. You can set your preferred domain in google sitemaps. Chk this out: Webmaster Help Center - What's a preferred domain?

Can you show us your blog url (if you don't have any problem) ?
