htaccess in subfolders

[nfn]

Hi

Just to clarify these points:

1. OLS can read .htaccess only when in the root folder ./ and any changes to this file need to be reload by the server by clicking in the reload button on the admin cp.
2. If .htaccess file is inside a subfoler "./subfolder/.htaccess" OLS just ignores it and theses rules must be placed in a context "/subfolder".
3. We can have rules inside ./.htaccess in the root mixed with a context "/".
4. Last, a rule like "RewriteRule ^/a/b/c/d\.php - [F,L,NC]" in the root folder "./.htaccess" doesn't work.

Thanks

Hi

Can someone confirm that OLS can read .htaccess files in subfolders?
It only works in the root.
I'm using 1.4.49

Thanks

It can be done via context, Each directory which has a .htaccess needs a context like this to work -

Add this to your vHost.

context /dir1/dir2 {
allowBrowse 1
}
