Real URL (realurl)

Tipps Alte Simulatic Links von außen erhalten... RewriteRule ([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+)\.html$ http:///index.php?id=$1&type=$2 [R=301,L]

Quickinfo

• Configure Apache
• Deactivate SimulateStaticDocs
• TypoScript
• Edit localconf.php (or use another tool like aeurltools or etarget realurlconfiguration

eventually use aeurltool or realurlsettings for easy configuration (without editing localconf.php)

Configure Apache

RealURLs work by providing 'virtual paths' to 'virtual files'. These don't actually exist on the file-system, so you must tell Apache to let a PHP-script handle the request if it can't find the file. This way, all URLs to pages (like www.server.com/products/product1/left.html) will be 'redirected' to /index.php, which will handle the translation of the URL into GET parameters. Real files (like images, the TYPO3 backend, static html-files, etc.) will still be handled by Apache itself though.

You should put the supplied sample .htaccess file (called _.htaccess) in the root of your TYPO3-installation.

Alternatively, you could include the following lines in your httpd.conf, probably in the VirtualHost-section. Here is an example:

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
DocumentRoot /var/www/typo3/dev/testsite-3/
ServerName www.test1.intra
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/typo3$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^/typo3/.*$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule .* /index.php
</VirtualHost>

NOTICE: USING httpd.conf is currently known not to work since t3lib_div::getIndpEnv('TYPO3_SITE_URL') is not correct. Solution remains to be found.

If you put it into a .htaccess file it has to look slightly different, basically stripping the leading slashes (“/”):

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^typo3$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^typo3/.*$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule .* index.php

This will tell Apache that it should rewrite every URL that's not a filename, directory or symlink. It leaves everything starting with /typo3/ alone too.

Notice: For this work you need the Apache module “mod_rewrite”!

Also refer to the Appendix for extended information on mod_rewrite issues.
