Causes of re-direction

[mukta]

I am trying to install a website application. The http://localhost redirects to http://localhost.$root_host. I am breaking my head because I cannot find the cause. There is .htaccess file which redirects anypage.html to anypage.php. Even if I remove this file same thing happens. In index.php the code for re-direction is commented out..Pls help.

Without seeing the code, it will be extremely difficult to pinpoint the issue for you.

If you have a text editor that can search through multiple files (open or closed) then I would do a simple search for $root_host and just peruse that list to see if it's contained in a header() call.

In linux you could do a 'grep -iR "\$root_host" *' to search all files of a directory for that phrase.
