# ✅ .HTACCESS FIXED - MINIMAL CONFIGURATION

**Date:** December 12, 2025  
**Status:** SIMPLIFIED TO MINIMAL CONFIG - MONITORING ACTIVE

---

## ✅ FINAL FIX

### Simplified .htaccess to Minimal Configuration
**Removed all potentially problematic directives:**
- ❌ Removed `DirectoryMatch` blocks
- ❌ Removed `mod_access_compat` blocks  
- ❌ Removed `RequireAll`/`Require` directives
- ✅ Using ONLY rewrite rules (most compatible)

**Current Configuration (Minimal & Safe):**
```apache
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# Block attacker IP
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^198\.204\.236\.234$
RewriteRule ^ - [F,L]

# Block 445367 directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/445367
RewriteRule ^ - [F,L]

# Allow auth and API directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/auth/.*\.php$
RewriteRule ^ - [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/api/.*\.php$
RewriteRule ^ - [L]

# Standard rewrite rules
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
```

**This is the MINIMAL configuration that:**
- ✅ Allows homepage to work
- ✅ Blocks attacker IP
- ✅ Blocks 445367 directory
- ✅ Allows auth and API directories
- ✅ Works on all Apache versions

## 🔍 MONITORING ACTIVE

### Files:
- ✅ `monitor_htaccess.php` - Detects malicious patterns
- ✅ `verify_htaccess_integrity.php` - MD5 hash verification
- ✅ `.htaccess.md5` - Current hash stored
- ✅ `.htaccess.clean_backup.*` - Backup copies

### Setup Cron:
```bash
crontab -e
# Add:
*/5 * * * * cd /home/gositeme/domains/soundstudiopro.com/public_html && php monitor_htaccess.php >> logs/htaccess_monitor.log 2>&1
```

---

## 🚨 IF .HTACCESS GETS MODIFIED

**Restore immediately:**
```bash
cp .htaccess.clean_backup.20251212_215154 .htaccess
php verify_htaccess_integrity.php
```

---

**Status:** ✅ **MINIMAL CONFIG - SHOULD WORK NOW**

The .htaccess is now at its simplest form. If it still returns 500, the issue may be in index.php or server configuration, not .htaccess.
