Mod Rewrite all traffic not from my domain and subdomains

Question

At this time every site on my server is on the domain "mydomain.com" or "subdomain.mydomain.com", I do various re-writes depending on the subdomain used to access the site.

What I want to do now, is send any request NOT from my domain or subdomains to a script for handling...... sounds simple, but I can't get it working..

This is what I have:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{ENV:Rewrite-Done} !^Yes$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(.*)\.mydomain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) /_testing/htaccess/off.php?$1

It correctly lets any traffic on my domain or subdomain through, but gives a 500 internal server error on the re-write. Am I missing something obvious?

Answer 1

Try this rule:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(.+\.)?example\.com$
RewriteCond $1 !=/_testing/htaccess/off.php
RewriteRule (.*) /_testing/htaccess/off.php?$1

Answer 2

It turned out that the htaccess rule was redirecting indefinitely. This was because my handler script was inside the /htaccess/ directory itsself.

I've moved the handler file to another location and this now works:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{ENV:Rewrite-Done} !^Yes$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(.+\.)?example\.com$
RewriteRule (.*) /_testing/get.php?http_host=%{HTTP_HOST}
