Curulan,
Thank you for prompt response, but unfortunately problem seems to be inside
of Wiki itself. I removed almost all .htaccess entries ( beside needed php5)
and reverted back all configuration changes and now have an original setup.
When I point browser to
(note lack of
WWW).
MediaWiki(1.15.1) hosted by popular 1and1 hosting.
Will appreciate any future ideas,directions, recommendations, etc...
Regards
Stas

The configuration:
MediaWiki 1.15.1
PHP 5.2.12 (cgi)

Clean installation with "Short URL" rewrite rules in .htaccess
The problem:
Apparently, every URL for non-defined article like
http://www.wikivalley/com/wiki/SomePage redirected to
http://wikivalley/com/wiki/SomePage (note omission of WWW prefix).
Also
http://www.wikivalley.com is redirected to
http://wikivalley.com/wiki/Main_Page.
I put a workaround using rewrite rules, but every such request
results in two back and force "301 Redirect" calls (+ about 1 second
latency).
Did i missed something in configuration?
Any help is deeply appreciated!
I'm not exactly sure what the problem is? Is the only thing happening
"wrong" that when your pages redirect it's simply omitting the
"www."
subdomain?
If so, (1) that shouldn't be an issue on a properly setup hosting
account, and (2) the issue is probably in your RewriteConds/Rules.
You may have something looks similar to this:
RewriteCond ^www\.wikivalley\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$
http://wikivalley.com/$1
Of course, without seeing the contents of .htaccess, it will be
difficult to pinpoint the EXACT changes you need to make.
