Hi,
So I’m having some issues with a subdomain which I can’t fix after reading a lot through the internet.
I’m trying to set up an api subdomain which purpose is to respond http requests, so my index file is just a php that redirects to the web (which is working fine).
I have an .htaccess with redirects things like api.domain.tld/createuser to api.domain.tld/api/user/create.php, but it is not working (I’m getting 404 error code). If I do the http request with the long url it works fine.
Also, just in the case it is useful, I’ve added an info.php to check phpinfo() and I’m getting a 500 error code.
Can anyone help me out? Thanks
NOTE: I’ve already checked:
- In /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, in directory /var/www AllowOverride All is set.
- Mod_rewrite is enabled, checked via phpinfo()

Well, I’ve finally found the problem. The file /var/run/mysqld/mysql.sock file was missing, I really don’t know how or why but I returned to a old snapshot and did things over it and now everything seems to work.
Thanks @MDS for the help, some things were useful for me.
Make sure that you have AllowOverride set to All in your apache virtual host file.
<Directory /var/www>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
And change .htaccess to
Redirect 301 /createuser/ /api/user/create.php
Hi,
My apache2.conf file contains exactly this:
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all denied
</Directory>
<Directory /usr/share>
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
I’ve got several Virtual Host files: 000-default.conf, domain.tld.conf, sub1.domain.tld.conf, sub2.domain.tld.conf and in all of them I’ve got:
<Directory /var/www/url/public_html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
Where url can be html, domain.tld, sub1.domain.tld or sub2.domain.tld.
Also I’ve changed the .htaccess as you told me, and stills the same >.<
Thanks for the help
