Apache htaccess mod_rewrite puts extra slashes

Question

I've a website with following .htaccess code. The problem is apache (and/or something else) puts more slashes inside urls. For example;

domain.com/blog/blog-post/ (This is what i want)

But this is what i get;

domain.com//blog/blog-post/ or domain.com//about-us//

I've googled it but i didn't reach something usefull. Sorry for my bad English :) Here is the code

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews -Indexes
DirectorySlash Off
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^neler-yapiyoruz/$ index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^iletisim/$ contact\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^biz-kimiz/$ about\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^blog/$ blog\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^blog/([a-z0-9-]+)/$ blog_post\.php?slug=$1 [NC]
RewriteRule ^portfolio/([a-z0-9-]+)/([a-z0-9-]+)/$ portfolio.php?catSlug=$1&slug=$2 [NC]

I'm no expert but have messed around with mod_rewrite enough to know (think) that there's nothing in the above that would cause double slashes. All I can suggest is to ensure you are *definitely* not using a cached version, and update your httpd.conf file to output a detailed log file to work out what's going on behind the scenes.

You have extra slash in the page to be redirected to part in the URL

So your rule should be

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews -Indexes
DirectorySlash Off
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^neler-yapiyoruz/$ index.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^iletisim/$ contact.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^biz-kimiz/$ about.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^blog/$ blog.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^blog/([a-z0-9-]+)/$ blog_post.php?slug=$1 [NC]
RewriteRule ^portfolio/([a-z0-9-]+)/([a-z0-9-]+)/$ portfolio.php?catSlug=$1&slug=$2 [NC]

it didn't work :( Still puts extra slash after domain name. – frontxtr Jun 21 '16 at 23:53
Yes, the backslashes are used to escape the dots here - although they're not strictly necessary – Ian Jun 21 '16 at 23:55

Having looked at the source code of the website you showed in the screenshot in your comment, it appears the extra slash is coming from this markup in your HTML:

<base href="http://[domain].com.tr//" />

You should just need to remove the second trailing slash.

The problem is not related with base href. For example when i put files into sub-directory everything goes on well as expected. But when i move files into htdocs folder apache puts more slashes :/ – frontxtr Jun 22 '16 at 13:54
Please can you provide an example of this case scenario? With the base href the way it is, every page that the browser is requesting is [domain].com.tr//[request_uri]. With your .htaccess the way it is, nothing is being changed so double slashes would be the expected outcome. – Ian Jun 22 '16 at 14:10
