Apache redirects everything to index.php except existing files and folders

I have index.php that reads the full path of the variable $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] . My task is when the user enters: www.domain/resource/777 redirect to index.php using the path /resource/777 and parse $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] to execute some logic. But I also have real files and folders, for example:

  • CSS / theme.css
  • assets /assets.js
  • Resource /locale.js

When I try this configuration:

 RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php [L]

The client could not get all the css and etc. files How to write the correct rule in Apache to achieve this?

If you are using Apache 2.2.16 or later, you can completely replace the rewrite rules with one directive:

 FallbackResource /index.php

See https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dir.html#fallbackresource

Basically, if the request was to cause a 404 error, instead, the backup resource uri will be used instead, correctly populating the variable $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] .

According to the REQUEST_FILENAME documentation, it evaluates only the full path to the local file system to the file if the path is already defined by the server.

In a nutshell, this means that the condition will work if it is inside the .htaccess file or in the <Directory> section of your httpd.conf, but not that it is inside the <VirtualHost> . In this latter case, you can simply wrap it with a <Directory> tag to make it work.

 <VirtualHost *:80> # ... some other config ... <Directory /path/to/your/site> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php [L] </Directory> </VirtualHost>

Your rule is fine. The problem with css / js / image is that you are using a relative path to include them.

You can add this just below the <head> in the HTML page:

 <base href="/" />

so that each relative URL is removed from this base URL, and not from the current page URL.

Also keep only this rule in your .htaccess:

 DirectoryIndex index.php RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^[^.]+$ index.php [L]

You can install the document with an error in your htaccess file to use index.php, then a non-existing file is requested:

 ErrorDocument 404 /index.php

So far, only this has helped me:

 RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/src/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/assets/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/resource/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/data.json RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php [L]
