Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you guys, for your help it helped my problem to slove. I restore my pages back.

hi, thanks for your reply, Jeroen, I was trying to remove the content duplication, that occurred

when I was crawling my website with the Moz pro tool.

its showed me two pages, generalapplianceservice.ca, and generalapplianceservice.ca/index.html

I was just trying to remove the index.html page.

so I used the above code. and start getting an error of 404, in 3 to 4 pages of the website.   the pages were correct in the root page, the name of pages was also correct.

the page was this generalapplianceserice.ca/about.html, before the code and after the code, it removed the generalapplianceserice.ca/about

.HTML extension from the URL and showing a 404 error.

right now I used Errordocument 404 code in htaccess file. for handling 404 pages.

also the change the page name. but I need the same page back.

any help?

#index redirect
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index.html$ http://domain.com/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} .html
RewriteRule ^(.*).html$ /$1 [R=301,L]

hi anyone please help I use this code but now getting 404 error. please help.

homepage and service.html page is working, but the rest pages like about.html, servicearea.html, and contact.html is not working showing 404 error.

and also when you type this URL. generalapplianceserice.ca/about.html

generalapplianceserice.ca/contact.html

generalapplianceserice.ca/servicearea.html

it automatically remove the .HTML extension and shows 404 error, the pages name in root directory is same.

these pages work like generalapplianceservice.ca and generalapplianceservice.ca/services

why?

i also remove this code again but still same issue.
