Godaddy Friendly URLS Problem

[cromata]

I have a problem activating my friendly urls on my store using godaddy as my host.

I have activated friendly urls option in my preferences on my admin page.

I have renamed my htaccess.tx file to htaccess

I have tried it with the original code prestashop generates and currently i'm testing this:

# URL rewriting module activation
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !^(TRACE|TRACK|GET|POST|HEAD)$
RewriteRule .* - [F]
RewriteBase /
Options +FollowSymLinks

# URL rewriting rules
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)/([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)\.html(.*)$ product.php?id_product=$2$4 [L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)\.html(.*)$ product.php?id_product=$1$3 [L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ category.php?id_category=$1 [QSA,L,E]
RewriteRule ^content/([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ cms.php?id_cms=$1 [QSA,L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)__([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ supplier.php?id_supplier=$1$3 [QSA,L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)_([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ manufacturer.php?id_manufacturer=$1$3 [QSA,L,E]

# Catch 404 errors
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

but i have had no good luck =(

I would appreciate any help.

Hi Mario,

Not sure if you sorted your problem, but I had the same issue - Friendly URLs were not working on Godaddy host.

After spending few hours, I have it working now. It turn out to be that the "RewriteEngine on" should be with capital "On" (RewriteEngine On).

Here is my full .htaccess:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# URL rewriting module activation
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# URL rewriting rules
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)/([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)\.html(.*)$ product.php?id_product=$2$4 [L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)\.html(.*)$ product.php?id_product=$1$3 [L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ category.php?id_category=$1 [QSA,L,E]
RewriteRule ^content/([0-9]+)\-([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ cms.php?id_cms=$1 [QSA,L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)__([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ supplier.php?id_supplier=$1$3 [QSA,L,E]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)_([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)(.*)$ manufacturer.php?id_manufacturer=$1$3 [QSA,L,E]

# RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)\-([0-9]+)(\-[a-zA-Z0-9-]*)/([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)\.jpg$ img/p/$1-$2$3.jpg [L,E]
# RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)(\-[a-zA-Z0-9-]*)/([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)\.jpg$ img/c/$1$2.jpg [L,E]



# Catch 404 errors
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

JPG rules I saw from another post that are generated by v1.2, so I included them, but marked them off for now - need testing under v.1.1.05


That's all, hope this will help you.

Best regards,
Chris
