Apache redirect localhost to localhost/abc/def/

Question

I want to map "localhost/" to "localhost/abc/def/" in apache. How should I edit .htaccess to achieve this?

Answer 1

If you want to redirect just this one URL, use this simple RewriteRule

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ /abc/def/ [R,L]

If you want to move the whole site instead, you can use Redirect

Redirect / /abc/def/
