PHP redirects_from gets downloaded instead of redirected #145

Closed p4m closed 7 years ago

p4m commented 7 years ago

I use redirect_from to redirect old .php extensions

redirect_from:
  - /aanmelden.php
  - /repetities.php
  - /links.php

Instead of redirecting to the correct page, the generated php-page (with the redirect code inside) get's downloaded on the client.

Is this something due to a wrong configuration on my side? I'm hosting the website on github pages.

Hope to here from you...

It sounds like your server is not configured to serve .php files as text/html

There isn't anything this plugin can do to solve this, the server configuration must be changed.

@benbalter,

according to @pathawks, .php should be served as text/html to make jekyll-redirect-from work with Jekyll.

@p4m and myself report that GitHub Pages serves .php files as downloads instead of redirections.

Would it be possible that GitHub Pages could serve .php files as text/html, so that redirections from them worked fine?

Many thanks for your help.

@benbalter, sorry for the noise, I have already solved the issue, as described in #92.

@p4m, append .html to your redirects, such as in:

redirect_from:
  - /aanmelden.php.html
  - /repetities.php.html
  - /links.php.html

Please, close the issue, if the fix from #92 works for you.
