Shouldn't cause a problem, as long as you never point any links towards subdomain.primarydomain.com.  Might be able to do a .htaccess file redirect though just to be sure.  Think I have seen it on the forums here before.  I'll do some searching to see what I can find.

Thanks Mitch, I tried to do what they suggested and I get the same problems as jgye21574 had.

Maybe someone who's gone through this can help?

I have no links pointing to either of those locations... I hope that is good for now.

I just want to create, yet all these technical things come up! LOL

Ah great, just to be more general it would be:


 

Hi Andy007,

Well I must admit that I'm totally puzzle and now I start understanding what Mr Phil wrote in the other thread. We have to redo the whole thing so you have to remove all the redirections from cPanel I told you to do   

Then rewrite your .htaccess file from your addonDomain root like this:


Warning: All it's going to work well except for mainDomain.com/addonDomain, that will bring you into a 404 page which at least that won't be indexed BUT the browser will show you something like:

http://www.addonDomain.com//home/your-username/public_html/addonDomain   

The whole path with the folder public_html should never appear in any address. How did LP manage that? And THAT is what is thrilling me.
Another thing is that I haven't manage to set my mainDomain in it's canonical version. Following the next directive it's supposed to work:

Just the first redirection works but the re-direct non-www to www it's not working 

Another thing that it's very recommendable is that you set a personalize  Error 404 page for every addonDomain with the
ErrorDocument 404 /your file. Check ibm.com site to see what I'm talking about.

Anyway I'm still working trying to resolve this puzzle but if some one from LP could tell us what's going on here or give us some clues to solve this riddle, it would be of great help 

Excellent! Glad to hear it's working everything for you. Try this maindomain.com/addondomain/ and also will redirected to your addondomain. 

Actully webado is who has been supporting me in this issues. So she is the real hero. This is her web site with a lot of resources and good tips:

The mod_rewrite module is the de-facto standard for URL rewriting in the Apache world, and is typically supported by any Apache-based hosting package. So consult your web host for information regarding whether mod_rewrite is supported and enabled.
If it's an IIS server you can go to:

Hmmm... Actually there are a lot more in regard of avoiding duplicate content. So take in consideration this:

To begin, you can divide duplicate content into two main categories:

• Duplicate content as a result of site architecture
• Duplicate content as a result of content theft

Duplicate Content as a Result of Site Architecture

Some examples of site architecture itself leading to duplicate content are as follows:

• Print-friendly pages
• Pages with substantially similar content that can be accessed via different URLs
• Pages with items that are extremely similar, such as a series of differently colored shirts in an e-commerce catalog having similar
• descriptions
• Pages that are part of an improperly configured affiliate program tracking application
• Pages with duplicate title or meta tag values
• Using URL-based session IDs
• Canonicalization problems (At least I know you've already fix that one  )
  

Duplicate Content as a Result of Content Theft 

Content theft creates an entirely different problem. Just as thieves can steal tangible goods, they can also steal content. This, unsurprisingly, is the reason why it is called content theft. It creates a similar problem for search engines, because they strive to filter duplicate content from search results — across different web sites as well — and will sometimes make the wrong assumption as to which instance of the content is
the original, authoritative one.

Unfortunately, fighting content theft is ridiculously time-consuming.  But if you are intresting here are some sites to visit:

Great! Whenever you come to México we can go to a "cantina" and drink some beers 

Hi Andy007,

I had to open a support ticket and yes, we have the best support in LP 

So Michael Torrance gave me those links:

http://www.webmasterworld.com/apache/3395854.htm and
http://www.webmasterworld.com/apache/3403983.htm

There is the clue to our answer not exactly the answer but the key. So it seems I got the final version of the code for this hosting or at least for my server. It depends on how the httpd.conf was configured. Any way this is apparently my last version:

For addon domain so in /addonDomain/.htaccess


With that you'll be able to write mainDomain.com/addonDomain and be redirected to www.addonDomain.com
So try this code please and let us know how does it work for you?

And for my mainDomain from the support team Daniel McCall got this:


That works in my account.

Now I think It's done.
