.htaccess mod_write suppress rewrite on a directory – SEO

I’m trying to suppress mod_write on a directory. Currently when I go to http://example.com/directory/file.php, it routes me to http://example.com/file.php. I want it to simply serve up the file.php that is there. I’ve tried doing 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/directory/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule . - [L]

and 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^directory/*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*.(ico|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|js|css)
RewriteRule ^([^?]*) index.php?_route_=$1 [L,QSA]

neither seems to work. Is there anything else I can try?

Here is the full file…

    Try the following instead of REQUEST_FILENAME:

    RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d [NC]

    I found the same problem on one of my sites.

    I’m trying to suppress mod_write on a directory.

    To do this, you can create a .htaccess file in that directory and simply enable the rewrite engine:

    RewriteEngine On

    mod_rewrite directives are not inherited by default, so this completely overrides the mod_rewrite directives in the parent .htaccess file.

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/directory/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule . - [L]

    This should also work, providing it was placed at the start of your .htaccess file. Incidentally, a pattern like ^/directory/.*$ is the same as simply, ^/directory/. If you are on Apache 2.4+ then you can use the END flag instead of L.

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !pagespeed

    This appears to be a stray condition at end of your mod_rewrite rules!? This will cause problems if you include any mod_rewrite directives after it (as in anywhere in the file).
