Hi guys
I've been struggling with this for hours... as I'm no .htaccess guru (assuming it is indeed a .htaccess problem).

This is my site,
http://www.sasportsbusiness.co.za,

there is a redirect problem where
a user is redirected to the administrator's login page when he/she accesses
the site directly without having 'www' in the front like http://sasportsbusiness.co.za

Right now I have removed the .htaccess file, so it isn't there right now...
And it's doing it still...
Please let me know what I can do~

Thx

Are you using any custom CNAMES, or anything on your account?   

Took a quick look, didn't see anything obvious, so it may be something in the code.

You may want to send a ticket to support at support@lunarpages.com, or via support.lunarpages.com for further investigation.

Is that your whole .htaccess file?  I have a Joomla site and it creates its own fairly large file for rewrites and stuff... Post exactly what is in the ".htaccess" file within the root of your /public_html/ directory.  If that IS everything, then I suppose you'd just have to e-mail support like Troy said.  If your site isn't registered with LP, you should look at any redirects with your registrar.

yes, that's all there is to the .htaccess which i modified, since all i wanted to try was getting this sorted out.

Just sticking my nose in, and out of curosity, what are the settings for:

$mosConfig_absolute_path

$mosConfig_live_site

(In your configuration.php file), and which version Joomla are you running?
