Symfony2 - redirect /web directory to root

.htaccess, redirect, symfony, url-rewriting

Solution

In the htaccess file in your web directory (the `/web/.htaccess` file), add these rules right beneath the `RewriteEngine On`:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(GET|HEAD)\ /web/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301]

This redirects all direct access to the web directory to the root.

Problem

I've got a duplicate content problem with my Symfony2 projet. The following urls gives the same content : `www.mywebsite.com/web/page` and `www.mywebsite.com/page` Here is the content of my `/.htaccess` file : ``` <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ web/$1 [QSA,L] </IfModule> ``` And the content of my `/web/.htaccess` file : ``` <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ app.php [QSA,L] </IfModule> ``` I would like to redirect any url starting with `/web` to `/` but I can't manage to do it. Do you have any suggestion ?
