htaccess redirect to alias folder not working



I have a website lets say www.myweb.com
I have a folder for my forum question named ascommunity. I have created an alias to the folder to load index.php. Which means www.myweb.com/community will index.php which will load all questions.


www.myweb.com


index.php


www.myweb.com/community


index.php



I have another php page question.php which will load the detail of the question. So If I will load www.myweb.com/community/question.php?ques=my new question, it will gve me the detail of the question. But I want url to be like www.myweb.com/community/question/mynewquestion.


www.myweb.com/community/question.php?ques=my


www.myweb.com/community/question/mynewquestion



I have written htaccess to achieve that but it's not working for alias folder. Here is what I am using in my htaccess which is in community folder.


Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %REQUEST_FILENAME !-d
RewriteCond %REQUEST_FILENAME !-f

RewriteRule ^question/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ question.php?ques=$1



When I load www.myweb.com/community/question/mynewquestion it says 404 not found error.


www.myweb.com/community/question/mynewquestion



But If I will load www.myweb.com/community/question.php?ques=mynewquestion It works fine as there is no htacces rule applied.


www.myweb.com/community/question.php?ques=mynewquestion



I got stucked here.





Your RewriteBase is wrong. It should be RewriteBase /comunity/, otherwise you will request /question-php which does not exist. Alternatively you can add the community folder to the rule target.

RewriteBase


RewriteBase /comunity/


/question-php





I tried with that also but didn't work. I am doing like this

And "didn't work" means what exactly? What does it rewrite to? What does your log file say?

I am doing like this <a href = "question/mynewquestion"> from index.php. The htaccess works fine if its like community.myweb.com/question/mynewquestion. But I want www.myweb.com/community/question/mynewquestion

That is not an answer to the question I asked. What is the request getting rewritten to? What does your log file say?
