I have always added those 2 lines to my Joomla 1.0.x templates and they have worked fine adding in the http://www....and they still do. (Switching domain.com out of course)
But now that I am starting to tinker with the Joomla 1.5.x sites I have yet to get that rewrite to work...using the same linux server. Other than turning on Search Engine Friendly URLs and Use Apache mod_rewrite. What else am I missing?
Tried:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com$ [NC] RewriteRule (.*) http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
And:
rewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc] rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
Any suggestions why those two lines only work in my Joomla 1.0.x sites?

I've used this post's answer for my 1.5 sites and it's worked fine. Take not of the "Rewrite Engine On" lines and also read the basic Joomla 1.5 htaccess file and you'll find in the header a line that says to uncomment it or comment it out if it's not working.This is stuff that depends on your server configuration.
## Can be commented out if causes errors, see notes above. Options +FollowSymLinks
Here's the link to the original post where you'll find a little more info, but I'm quoting it here as the title of the thread makes it fitting and hopefully people will search and find what they need.

To make it redirect, I'd suggest to try adding at top of .htaccess in the root directory (if already exists) or create it as new and add one of the two following options, based on your need:
1. Redirect from domain to www.domain :RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
2. Redirect from www.domain to domain:RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^domain.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
Thanks to Djamil for this solution! - Last Edit: 16 years 5 days ago by Ben Lee.
