Weird Redirect Behaviour

[seoseb-de]

Redirecting URL with trailing slash to URL without trailing slash

After installing the latest Update I came across some weird redirect issue. Each URL with trailing slash got redirected to their version without trailihng slash but with the root directory removed.

My Typemill lives in /artikel/ subdirectory on my domain. Calling /artikel/linkliste/ led to a 301 to/linkliste

I fixed this by adding my directory to the trailing slash rule in .htaccess:

# Use this to redirect slash/ to url without slash on apache servers
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /artikel/$1 [R=301,L]

Setting the rewrite base did not help btw.

But - calling the index page on /artikel´ leads to a 301 to/artikel/´ - even without the change mentioned above.

Before the index page was /artikel and google and friends indexed it this way.

Wat am I missing? I can't figure out why this is happening now.

This is my .htaccess which was shipped with Typemill:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

# If your homepage is http://yourdomain.com/yoursite
# Set the RewriteBase to:
# RewriteBase /artikel

# In some environements, an empty RewriteBase is required:
# RewriteBase /

# Use this to redirect HTTP to HTTPS on apache servers
# RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
# RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

# Use this to redirect www to non-wwww on apache servers
# RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
# RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

# Use this to redirect slash/ to url without slash on apache servers
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /artikel/$1 [R=301,L]

# Removes index.php
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule (.*?)index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,NE,L]

# REWRITE TO INDEX

# If the requested path and file not /index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index\.php

# if requested doesn't match a physical file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

# if requested doesn't match a physical folder
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

# then rewrite the request to the index.php script
RewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L]

# FILE/FOLDER PROTECTION

# Deny access to these file types generally
RewriteRule ^(.*)?\.yml$ - [F,L]
Rewriterule ^(.*)?\.yaml$ - [F,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)?\.txt$ - [F,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)?\.example$ - [F,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)?\.git+ - [F,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)?\.md - [F,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/index\.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)?\.ph - [F,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)?\.twig - [F,L]
RewriteRule ^(media\/tmp\/) - [F,L]

# Block access to specific files in the root folder
RewriteRule ^(composer\.lock|composer\.json|\.htaccess)$ error [F,L]

# block files and folders starting with a dot except for the .well-known folder (Let's Encrypt)
RewriteRule (^|/)\.(?!well-known\/) index.php [L]

# Allow access to frontend files in author folder
RewriteRule ^(system\/author\/css\/) - [L]
RewriteRule ^(system\/author\/img\/) - [L]
RewriteRule ^(system\/author\/js\/) - [L]

# redirect all other direct requests to the following physical folders to the index.php so pages with same name work
RewriteRule ^(system|content|data|settings|(media\/files\/)) index.php [QSA,L]

# disallow browsing other folders generally
Options -Indexes
