removing subdir from url
Permalink
Hello all,
I've been using concrete5 now for some time and although the experience is mixed (i had some problems getting a decent performance), but now i'm pretty happy with it (using bootstrap-cache-library i get pageloads of 1.5s and reloads of 0.5s according a benchmark site).
I've installed cc5 into a subdirectory called in cc5site and things work fine in the default configuration. The problem is that i don't like the cc5part in the url. I've tried some different things using htaccess redirects and read some (not so recent) topics on this but i could not get it to work correctly completely after a day experimenting. Today i tried it again but this time i didn't try to remove the cc5site and index.php (pretty url's) in one step, and do it a bit more structured.
I almost got it to work removing the cc5site part, but a single page gives errors. (and i also believe some minor functionality of the administration panel becomes funky, giving html errors as plain text in a dialog box, but that is an other issue )
mysite.com/index.php/somepage redirects correctly using the htaccess to mysite.com/cc5site/index.php/somepage and this works for all pages on the site. The single problem i got is that the root page (mysite.com/index.php and mysite.com/index.php/) throws exceptions which i can't fix. I figured out it has something to do with the tracking of pages.
The exception i got was:
the full stacktrace i retrieved from the log
Seeing more people have had problems with this (likehttp://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/installation/hide-the-sub... )
i was wondering if what i'm trying to do is possible or not. Obviously i thought about physically moving the files to the root, but since the number of directories is pretty large and i want to keep my directory clean, this is not really a possibility.
Can anybody give some feedback about how to proceed? Im a pretty decent developper and got a lot of experience using java/php/js etc but i try to resolve this as efficiently as possible.
regards,
jan
PS i installed it a year ago but i'have updated 5 times or something using installatron and now i'm running the newest (version 5.6.0.2)
