[Solved] GTranslate PRO htaccess prevents php from running.

[technicaldaniel]

Hey there,

I just got the PRO version of GTranslate, however upon successfully integrating the pro version, I have found that a part of my page will no longer load. I am using Joomla 1.5 CMS and a PHP mod which uses a JavaScript load() function to get a php file from another sub directory (i.e. /sam/files/script.php) and display it on the index page. This worked very well before GTranslate PRO was installed. It also worked fine with the Free version of GTranslate.

Now I've isolated the problem to the .htaccess file. When the GTranslate entries are put in, the script doesn't load and just shows a blank space. However, when the GTranslate entries are removed, the script (and page) loads perfectly - however this obviously prevents GTranslate from working.

Other than that, GTranslate works very well, but that script is kind of crucial. :\ Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi,

Do you have js folder or any other 2 letter folders inside your www root directory?

I cannot check your website, since it is offline.

Yes I do have a js folder.

Try to use this rewrite rules instead:

# gtranslate config
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/(.*)$ /$1/$3 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)$ /$1/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/js
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/(.*)$ /gtranslate/translate.php?lang=$1&url=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/js
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)$ /gtranslate/translate.php?lang=$1 [L,QSA]
