Solving a URL redirection/rewriting problem

This guide explains how to enable the MultiViews option via an .htaccess file on websites hosted by Infomaniak.

Introduction

• In some cases, the MultiViews option must be enabled to handle redirection and URL rewriting issues. Example:
  • If the configuration folder and the configuration.php file are located at the root of your site and you try to access the URL my-site.com/configuration to reach the configuration.php file, the MultiViews option needs to be enabled.

Enabling the MultiViews option

To do this:

1. Open or create the .htaccess file located at the root of the relevant site.

2. Add the following directive:

   Options +MultiViews

3. Save the changes.
