htaccess – Path to adaptive-images-script.php is always wrong

Hi, Melanie,

So sorry for not having replied all these days, but it seems that the email notification was not received on this one!

I see your problem right there. The path to the Adaptive Images scipt is obviously wrong, just as you explained. Now it seems that you have installed your WordPress in a subfolder of the root domain, right? Or do you have some other kind of -perhaps unusual- setup when you say that:

My htaccess file is placed in the same directory as the index.php. All my wordpress files are located in a separate directory called “wp”.

In the meantime, I will run some checks and try and recreate your case.

Cheers,
Takis

Dear Takis,

thank you very much for your kind answer.
Yes you are absolutely right: i installed my wp stuff in an subfolder called “wp”.
We fixed the “bug” by changing this line:

adaptive-images-actions.php

//GFB Change
//$adaptive_images_php_script = $request_uri_base. ‘/’ . $adaptive_images_dir_path_relative . ‘/adaptive-images-script.php’;

$adaptive_images_php_script = ‘/’ . $adaptive_images_dir_path_relative . ‘/adaptive-images-script.php’;

When removing the $request_uri_base. the plugin works correct. But it would be perfect when you could fix this or find an solution?

thank you very much!!!!

Melanie

Hello, again, Melanie.

I tried to reproduce the issue in a WordPress installation inside a subdirectory, but the problem did not appear.

Is there anything “unusual” you could report about your installation? Are all the directories where they are supposed to by default? Have you perhaps changed something for security purposes?

Also, could you send me the results of the Print debug and Print diagnostics buttons in the plugin settings page?

Cheers,
Takis

Dear Takis,

thank you for your support!

There is nothing unusual with my wp-installation i think ?? i did not use a security plugin or similar tools..

my index.php + .htaccess are located unter my “root” directory. All the other files are located under my “wp”-directory.

I can reproduce the “bug” on my local installation, too.

i send you my debug info:

Our Blog is online and it is a subdomain. I changed the names to stay anonymous;)
https://name-of-my-website.mainsite.com

As i told you before we changed this line:

//Your Code:
$adaptive_images_php_script = $request_uri_base. ‘/’ . $adaptive_images_dir_path_relative . ‘/adaptive-images-script.php’;

//Our Code:
$adaptive_images_php_script = ‘/’ . $adaptive_images_dir_path_relative . ‘/adaptive-images-script.php’;

I hope this helps you to reproduce my Error?

in my htaccess i got the following code which breaks the adaptive images script:

# BEGIN Adaptive Images
#=======================

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

# Watched directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /wp/wp-content/uploads [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /wp/wp-content/themes

# Redirect images through the adaptive images script
RewriteRule \.(?:jpe?g|gif|png)$ /wp/wp/wp-content/plugins/adaptive-images/adaptive-images-script.php [L]

</IfModule>

# END Adaptive Images

/wp/wp/ is the problem ??

Thank you!!!

Hey, Melanie,

I think I have possibly spotted the “unusual” case. You said that your blog is installed in a subdirectory, which is wp, yet your url does not have this subdirectory in it, right? Is your blog url like https://name-of-my-website.mainsite.com/ or like https://name-of-my-website.mainsite.com/wp/? Because if it is the first case, then we have to figure out how you have come to this setup, but if it is the second case, then I have to figure out how come this error only happens with your setup and not mine!

Cheers,
Takis

Dear Takis,

yes you are absolutely right.
My wordpress-url is https://name-of-my-website.mainsite.com/wp
My website-url is https://name-of-my-website.mainsite.com/

I always install my wp core files and all the stuff in a subdirectory, because this makes development easy. When my website is ready for launch i only have to change the website-url in my settings and move the index.php + .htaccess in my root directory…

hopefully this will help you to fix it,

greetings from munich, melanie ??

Hello, Melanie,

So, this is a setup I have not yet come across in the past indeed!

What you are saying is that you end up with all υοθρ WordPress files in the /wp directory, but you have moved your index.php and your htaccess file in the root directory?

Sorry for the surprise here, but how does this even work in the first place? Do you do some url rewrites in your htaccess file? Does it work as it is?

If things are really as you describe them and your WordPress installation is still working alright, then there probably isn’t much a plugin could do to detect in which folder the actual WordPress files are located. And our plugin really needs that in order to function properly.

Still trying to figure this one out! ??

Cheers from Athens,
Takis

Hi Takis,

have a look here:

https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

This is exactly what i do…

you have of course to change this line in your index.php…

require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’ );

Greetings, Melanie

Hey, Melanie,

Thanks for pointing this out! I will create a test environment with this setup to check things out and I will get back to you as soon as possible!

Cheers,
Takis

Dear Takis,

just wanted so say hello.. ?? Did you get new informations about our common issue? ??

Greetings, Melanie

Hello, Melanie,

Really sorry, but I don’t have any updates yet. I promise to do the best I can. In the meantime it would be relieving to know that your installation is functioning OK, at least with the manual tweaks you have made to the htaccess file!

Cheers,
Takis

Hello, @milenoi2016,

Just wanted to let you know that the same issue has come up with another user as well in this thread and that your observation has helped fix the problem there temporarily as well.

I must apologise for not having incorporated the fix to the plugin yet, I know it is not a huge update, but it is in the middle of some other major updates that I have been working on. Thank you for you patience!

Cheers,
Takis

Dear Takis,

no worries, i am glad that our quickfix did help other community members ??
Wish you a good time and i am looking forward to the new version!

Merry X-Mas ??
Melanie

And a very merry Christmas to you too!

Cheers,
Takis

Hello, @milenoi2016,

If you are still following this thread, then I am happy to inform you that the fix we have talked about has been integrated in our latest minor version update 0.6.62. Once more, thank you for the cooperation and, please, do let us know if you test it and have any comments.

Cheers,
Takis
