Server deleting .htaccess file

[MilenaDok]

Hello,

I have a website in a subdirectory. Before, I had a .htaccess file in there, but now, the server keeps the .htaccess file but deletes the contents.

any suggestions?

Thanks

This sounds strange. You may wish to contact your hosting provider about this. In the meantime, try deleting the file, FTP it up again, then change permissions to 0444. The server won't have modified permissions then.

You can contact your hosting provider to set the attribute on .htaccess file which wont modify your htaccess file

chattr +a .htaccess

You need to check server logs on how files are deleted
