Subpage URLs don't work when using port number

[simonsays]

Hello,

I have recently finished local development with ProcessWire and moved to DEV VPS.

However, DEV VPS base url has port number in it. url:port.

So, when I either go to admin url:port/processwire and or any of the subpages, they are not found.

Do I need to modify anything in .htaccess or Apache? Does anyone have experience with this?

Seen this thread, it is irrelevant to my problem as I have already input httpHost value with port in it. It is URL being inproperly rewritten.

Maybe you need to set up something in .htaccess (my local dev server doesn't use ports, otherwise I'd try out something)

Running PW on non-standard ports shouldn't be an issue. Did you develop in a subdirectory? If yes, there might be a leftover RewriteBase entry in .htaccess interfering with URL rewrites.

So, what you are saying, is PW's .htaccess should work out of the box?

I did not change anything in .htaccess. I assume, the problem is somewhere in apache vhost, where I do not have admin access.

In that case, you should probably check with your hoster whether .htaccess can be used and mod_rewrite is available at all.

The problem was actually with apache virtual host (the <Directory> was not specified). Thanks for your patience and cooperation! ?
