weird .htaccess rule RedirectMatch
28 January 2013 at 11:31pm
can somebody tell me what's the purpose of the .htaccess rule is:
RedirectMatch 403 /silverstripe-cache(/|$)
even the apache doc cannot clearify this.
This rule is inserted into .htaccess by install.php -

It denies access to anyone trying to access the silverstripe-cache folder (if one exists)

With 2 parameters this statement is completely nonsense and does nothing.
The 304 status is interpreted as a matching condition this way!
See apache docs for setting up this correctly. -

The status argument is a 403, thus the URL to redirect to must be omitted (as detailed in the docs for Redirect, which RedirectMatch is equivalent to beyond regex support). The statement is perfectly correct.

Sorry - your are right - i did miss to read the Redirect docs.
But i'm still confused. Why should an URL of /silverstripe-cache gain access to Path /tmp/silverstripe-cache-home-... ? -

It doesn't, but you can have a silverstripe-cache folder in your site root instead of the one in /tmp (which is a fairly common practice on shared hosts). This rule is to stop access to that folder.
