error 500 Cakephp 3 in subfolder with OVH

Question

I've developed a web application based on Cakephp 3 on a dev server. Now I'd like to go live. So I uploaded my cakephp folder to my new server with the following architecture : www/site

Now when I try with the server's address like : http://test.cluster.ovh.net/site it's working fine.

But when I try to target (with ovh member area) my domains http://test.com and www.test.com on the subfolder www/site, my cakephp app is showing an Internal server error 500.

Here is my basic .htaccess in cakephp :

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule    ^$    site/webroot/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) site/webroot/$1    [L]
</IfModule>

Error log :

[Tue Mar 22 22:07:26 2016] [error] [client xx.xxx.xx.xx] [host test.cluster.ovh.net] Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.

What should I do?

Thanks!

EDIT : Solution found here : Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects

Have you read [this post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22756796/apache-2-4-request-exceeded-the-limit-of-10-internal-redirects-due-to-probable)? It is most likely caused by an bad redirect. — Sevvlor, Mar 23 '16 at 08:22
If you want the site to be accessible through `test.com` itself why are you putting it in a sub folder? — ADmad, Mar 23 '16 at 08:37

You need to exclude the destination you are rewriting to otherwise you will get a rewrite loop error because site/webroot/ also matches the Rewrite pattern (.*) .

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
 RewriteBase /
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/site/webroot
 RewriteRule (.*) site/webroot/$1    [L]
</IfModule>

It's showing me a 404 error : The requested URL /site/webroot/ was not found on this server. – Ty Yt Mar 23 '16 at 08:53
