So what the magic contents of a htaccess file to over ride the problem of not being able to access other directories with other applications? Remembering that Oxwall is a standard installation. Paths are set to same standards where ever the instalation.

What should be added to the.

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .*/http-bind
RewriteRule (.*) /http-bind [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/ow_updates/index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/ow_updates/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (/|\.php|\.html|\.htm|\.feed|\.raw|/[^.]*)$ [NC]
Before the
RewriteRule (.*) index.php

To run for example:

BlackNova Traders

Director after install
/bnt/

Say for a site call http://scoopydo.com

Please supply the magic? it would be very appreciated.

Please can I have the answer from the experts before I start experimenting and publish my results here as i know there are a lot of developers that would like to run other applications from the same site. Then recommending a slow server that sets this up for you with a history of a lot of down time is not the whole idea of asking this question. Nor going through 100 + suggestions that ends up with a last pleading comment. lol

heres what i think you are after

in your .htaccess file after

RewriteRule (.*) /http-bind [L]

add the following line to allow a subdomain (like bnt.scoopydo.com)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !bnt.scoopydo.com$

add the following line to allow a directory (like scoopydo.com/bnt/)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/bnt/

add the following to allow a custom file (like scoopydo.com/bnt.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/bnt.txt

Thanks Mark.

Please.....

Quote from Mark in your .htaccess file after RewriteRule (.*) /http-bind [L]

Do you mean after the RewriteRule (.*) index.php?

And

before the RewriteRule (.*) index.php?
