htaccess cakephp

To configure the .htaccess file in CakePHP, you can follow these steps:

  1. Begin by creating a new file named ".htaccess" in the root directory of your CakePHP project.

  2. Open the .htaccess file and add the following code:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /path/to/your/cakephp/app
    RewriteRule    ^$    webroot/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) webroot/$1    [L]
</IfModule>
  1. Replace "/path/to/your/cakephp/app" with the actual path to your CakePHP application. For example, if your application is located in the "htdocs" folder of your local server, the line should be:
RewriteBase /htdocs/your-cakephp-app
  1. Save the .htaccess file and upload it to the root directory of your CakePHP project.

This configuration will redirect all requests to the "webroot" folder, where the CakePHP application's index.php file is located. The .htaccess file helps to remove the "webroot" part from the URL.

Note: Make sure that the Apache mod_rewrite module is enabled on your server for the .htaccess file to work properly.
