Yii Deploy To Sub Folder In Server

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hi to all.

I need help with this. I’ve been searching everywhere and can’t find a solution. It seems simple what I want to do, but can’t get it to work.

I have my app in a subfolder named ‘app’ in my local htdocs and the same folder in the hosting server. I can reach my app going to: localhost/app or mydomain.com/app and everything works perfect

The thing I can’t achieve is that I want the app to remain in that folder (public_html/app), and make everything appear as if it was directly on the public_html, that means going to mydomain.com and seeing urls like: mydomain.com/site/contact and NOT like: mydomain.com/app/site/contact

My url manager is as follows:




'urlManager'=>array(

			'urlFormat'=>'path',

			'showScriptName'=>false,

			'caseSensitive' => true,

			'useStrictParsing'=>true,

			'rules'=>array(

				''=>'site/index',

				'post/<id:\d+>/<urlName:[a-z0-9-]+>'=>'post/view',

				'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>'=>'<controller>/<action>',

			),

		),

I also have an .htaccess file under the ‘app’ folder with the following:




RewriteEngine on


# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d


# otherwise forward it to index.php

RewriteRule . index.php

I’ve seen some complex directory structures like the one here where index.php is inside: frontend/www so I guess that what I am asking is possible.

Any help is really welcome!!!

Thanks in advance
