I had finished my first web application using Zend Framework 2 and I'm about to put it online.
But may web host doesn't allow me to change my vhost configuration!
The .htaccess file is allowed.
So my question is: How to set up my ZF2 app with only .htaccess files?
Assuming you have a standard ZF2 application based of the skeleton, then try creating a .htaccess
file in the root with this in it:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^\.htaccess$ - [F]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} =""
RewriteRule ^.*$ /public/index.php [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/public/.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /public/$1
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^public/.*$ /public/index.php [NC,L]
I haven't tested this, but in theory, this should effectively move the document root to the public directory while keeping it out of the url.
