Redirect not working?

mbe81

When I create a domain, add an alias domain and check the checkbox to redirect to the primary domain, the redirect takes not place.
I see that there is a .htaccess file created outside the public_html folder which contains the redirects. When I move the .htaccess file to the public_html folder, the redirect takes place.
Is this a known bug? I am currently using OpenLiteSpeed as a webserver.

mbe81 I have noticed this too, it just serves the content on both domains without a redirect

mbe81 It's a known bug that's existed for a long time. Version 12.0.0 should resolve it. For now you do have to move the redirects into the proper .htaccess depending on where the docroot of said domain resides, no matter which webserver role it uses.

Just ran into this issue also. Wanted to note so devs know there is more customers with the problem. Redirect does not work unless I copy it into the public_html directly.

I know that nginx redirects never worked in enhance.

Is it fixed in 12x now?

standtech I was incorrect regarding version 12 fixing this. The bug still exists on OLS for us.

@Adam can this be resolved anytime soon? I though this was supposed to be resolved with v12.
