Thread: issue with default page check failing

do you know how I can force anything from [url]www.mydomain.com[/url] to go only to [url]www.mydomain.com/index.php[/url]
so that I can avoid this error

Default Page Check: FAILED
You have not standardized your default pages meaning the following versions of your url return a 200/OK Header, which may cause duplicate content issues. The following extensions work:
[url]www.mydomain.com[/url]
[url]www.mydomain.com/index.php[/url]

in your .htaccess file add this:


[PHP]
Options +FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.php

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.mydomain.com/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L][/PHP]

that gets me an internal server error and the site can't be displayed
