How do I restart Apache, so that .htaccess is reread on a Static (with .htaccess app)?)

Question

I have a Static app (with .htaccess support) I added a .htaccess file to the directory, but nothing happened. I'd like to restart Apache. How do I do that?

Thanks!

You can't restart the shared system Apache - but that's OK, you shouldn't need to. .htaccess files are processed on every request, so any changes you make are available as soon as you make them.

If you're not seeing the expected result, then there's probably a problem with your .htaccess directives. If you'd like us to look into it further, then feel free to post details in a comment here, or submit a support ticket via the control panel.

OK, here's my problem: the app is called concentation it exists in a folder called ~/webapps/concentration/Concentration . The url is adamrich.name I want adamrich.name/something.html to load ~/webapps/concentration/Concentration/something.html not ~/webapps/concentration/something.html which it currently points to that doesn't exist. I created a file ~/webapps/concentration/.htaccess to try and make it work, but I've probably written it wrong. How can I do this? Thanks!

Something like this should work:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/Concentration/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /Concentration/$1 [P,L]

Hope that helps!
