DickvV Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 I would like to open my website: https://www.dickvanvels.nl/genealogie with https://www.dickvanvels.nl. I now get an error: 403 Forbidden I don't know how and where to arrange that. Who can help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katryne Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 You have to go to your hosting account, in the section where you manage your domain. And redirect the domain to the sub folder /genealogie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you say a little more precisely how I can redirect to /genealogie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katryne Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Difficult to explain : my hosting management is in French and the management is different according to the various hosting providers. There must be a section in your domain management where you can specify the sub-folder where you want the domain to connect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Severijns Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Dick, I'm pretty sure that if you ask your hosting provider they can fix that for you. You could also do a redirect via your .htacces file. Should be something like this: RedirectMatch 301 /https://www.dickvanvels.nl/genealogie/ /https://www.dickvanvels.nl/ You can find a lot of info on this topic if you do an internet search. .htacces redirect 301 First option is the safest of course.

DickvV Posted August 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Thanks Rob! In my htacces file I read: RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS}!=on RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] I'm wondering if I should completely replace this with the text you indicate or should I insert it into the text above? You see, I'm a layman in this area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Severijns Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Dick, As far as I know it should be underneath the existing text. Is the your website actually at https://www.dickvanvels.nl/ ? If you do a redirect your website should be at the designated location. I'm not sure that's the case here. Since I'm not an expert too I think it would be wise to ask your ISP to fix this for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DickvV Posted August 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Yes Rob, I have placed your text under the mentioned text, but there is no result; I still get error 403 Forbidden Dank voor je hulp, ik ga de info bestuderen!

DickvV Posted September 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 The comments on my post helped me to find the solution. It went like this: Log in to the provider. There use the present Direct Admin Web control Panel 2012-2018 (JBMC Software): In Dutch: DirectAdmin -> Geavanceerd (Advanced) -> Site doorsturingen (Site Forwarding). Thanks for the help!
