I have a small problem that is driving me nuts. I think it will be pretty simple for the right person to solve.

I am trying to make cakephp and wordpress (also php) live together on a single domain e.g. www.mysite.com

The proglem is I cannot get the right mod_rewrite rules to make it work nicely. they both also want to have the an index.php in the same directory which is also causing problems.

Here is my cake .htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$ 1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

and here is wordpress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
RewriteCond %http://www.mistersoft.org/freelancing/getafreelancer/2009/03/Linux-Perl-CGI-PHP-System-Admin-mod_rewrite-problem-wordpress-amp-cake-php-402883.html !^.*[^/]$

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !=POST
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !.*=.*
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Cookie} !^.*(comment_author_|wordpress|wp-postpass_).*$

# END WPSuperCache

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
</IfModule>


there are only a small number of controllers that I need to get to the cake app e.g. keywords, users, reports, and they are distinct from the slugs used by wordpress.

Please can someone provide for me a working .htaccess file or explain what I need to do to fix.

thanks
Michael
