phpmyfaq vs MultiViews

[An-tonio]

Hi all,

today I have spend some time with an anoying problem. In my server when I tried to access to sitemap I always was redirected (302) to / (the same with news and others), the redirect was caused by sitemap.php. This file shouldn't be access directly and for this reason I was redirected. I looked into .htacces why my request to sitemap/A/es.html is resolve by sitemap.php and no by index.php. The .htaccess file is ok and after searching some time I found the problem: MultiViews, thanks to: http://www.diarizing.com/302-loops-with-pligg/. This can cause a lot of problems in many servers, the better way to solve the problem is add -Multiviews in Options in .htacces, something like:

Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews

I have search in forum and I have not see nothing about this issue. I hope this can help another ones with similar problem.

Finally, thank for the great work in phpmyfaq, a really great software.
