adding a subdomain

[per_for.closer]

adding a subdomain to a subdirectory


how do i do it?
==============
nm i got it down

.htaccess file

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} store.impact-torah.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !store/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ store/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} store.impact-torah.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !store/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ store/$1 [L]
==============
nm, its not working! Some one help

This should be all you need:

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} store.impact-torah.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !store/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ store/$1 [L]

Well, that and the CNAME (set up properly) :)

[per_for.closer]

Argh! How do i set up the cname? ( i feel like the short bus kid )

==========================================

I editted the CNAME added:
Alias: store Hostname: impact-torah.com.

still no luck

[per_for.closer]

Also how do i turn on wildcards? And if i do can i still have store.impact-torah.com./?

wait upto 12 hours for the DNS update?

[per_for.closer]

i figured it out... after 2 hours or so

its:
RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} store.impact-torah.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !store/index.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ store/index.php$1 [L]

And once the cname is set...your good to go!

[MannInc]

The wildcard * in the alias field of a CNAME would allow for anything.yoursite.com to work :)

[per_for.closer]

i tried, but i'm told name is already in use...
and * doesn't show up the only two aliases i see are

www and store

[MannInc]

You might need to fire off an email to support@powweb.com about that. If it's not there I don't know how it could already be in use.

Did you do this:

*
yoursite.com.

???

[per_for.closer]

Hrm... it's working now, i did try * as alias and host impact-torah.com, tryed it again, and now poof it's working....

:)
Another question: How do i add another subdomain?

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} store.impact-torah.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !store/index.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ store/index.php$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} forum.impact-torah.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !cgi-bin/ikonboard/ikonboard.cgi
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ cgi-bin/ikonboard/ikonboard.cgi$1 [L]

?

[MannInc]

That's correct :)
