PHP-URL | A PHP Class to parse and manipulate URLs | Parser library

Dear fellow programmers

I'm pretty new to web development. Especially with the .htacces file. So I'm developing a webpage and I want to remove the .php file extensions. It is working for html but not for the php extension if I use the same code for it.

What I'm trying to achieve is when the user gets redirected to https://website.com/pong.php the URL gets changed to: https://website.com/pong. But the URL should still point to the first URL. Same for HTML files.

Thats the code I have for removing the html extension. There is allsow a line to redirect the page automatically to the https protocol (3rd line)

I've currently got the following htaccess items which swaps html and htm file extensions back and forth, so if you try to load index.html but the only file that exists is index.htm it will serve that instead. It works vice versa too.

Goal is to move everything to PHP but in the meantime is it possible to extend this to cover php as well. So if one of the older html pages calls index.htm or index.html, it would find they don't exist and serve index.php instead. Likewise if you type index.php and it doesn't exist it would serve either the htm or html file.

I have a server (VPS) with the following services:

• email server (postfix/dovecot)
• dns server (bind9)
• http server (nginx)

Fail2ban creates a lot of entries in iptables and this causes the server to become very slow and even sometimes it becomes unreachable and I have to login via the console and flush iptables before I can connect to the server. The used jails are shown below:

• Jail list: dovecot, named-refused, nginx-botsearch, nginx-http-auth, nginx-limit-req, php-url-fopen, postfix, postfix-auth, recidive

95% of bans are triggered by postfix jail. I reduced iptables size by setting recidive jail with : bantime = 7200 findtime = 3600 maxretry = 5 , the system slowness slightly improved but still not enough. My question : - is fail2ban to blame for this slowness? or iptables itself? In a previous project, I had no fail2ban installed and I used iptables with many entries (more entries than what my actual fail2ban creates) and the system was fast.

I appreciate any advice on how can I deal with this fail2ban issue.

I have this problem.

There is a Joomla site that has a image presented via PHP file image.php that has some Content-Type to be projected as Image.

I want to get that image with cURL or file_get_contents and save it as .jpg file.

The URL Looks like: http://radioglos.pl/components/com_eventgallery/helpers/image.php?option=com_eventgallery&mode=full&view=resizeimage&folder=2020-12-12kielpino&file=_ZBG5132.jpg

It has image.php script that is projecting the passed image via GET parameter as Content-Type Image.

I've already tried standard file_get_contents() method aswell as all cURL methods described in this topic: Saving image from PHP URL

Looking for answers.

I noticed that adding a trailing / to index.php breaks css and javascript which was explained here- what-happens-when-i-put-a-slash-after-a-php-url

My rewrite rule takes whatever string is after the domain and a forward slash and puts it into the GET variable q. So foo.com/foo works fine and I can access /foo in the GET variable q. How do I get any non existent resource requested in url string to work similarly? Make foo.com/foo/ OR foo.com/foo/foo etc. redirect to index.php and not break css and javascript.

PHP uses urlencode and urldecode while Actionscript 3 uses escape and unescape for encoding and decoding strings into a URL-safe format, but the problem is that apparently they aren't quite exactly the same. This causes problems for me occasionally when I try to use urlencode on a string in PHP and then unescape it in AS3, or escape in AS3 and urldecode in PHP. Does anyone know what the exact differences are? I found this post which lists the following differences:

I have Fail2Ban install on my Ubuntu VM. I successfully configured, and I got emails when there is a ban detected.

Is it possible to configure Fail2Ban to trigger a curl POST request after sending mail?

Is Fail2Ban allow something like that?

cat jail.conf

I'm trying to parse an RSS feed and I am getting what appears to be an empty DOM Document object. My current code is:

I have multiple domains that point to the same folder on my server. The code in index.php page recognizes which domain is accessing it and shows different content for each domain.

Now I want that www.domain-a.com\sitemap.xml opens /sitemap-a.xml so that each domain has its own sitemap.

I use the following rule in my .htaccess file:
