Help writing a 301 redirect please |

Hi, Hopefully someone has a great understanding of the world of mod_rewrite. I currently have a rule which looks like this: Code: Redirect 301 /folder http://old.domain.com/folder I tried: Code: Redirect 301 /folder http://old.domain.com/folder [NC, L] But it didnt work, Ive got about 20 of these redirects and its annoying me greatly!

I always find that manuals are very helpful at times like these http://httpd.apache.org/docs/ Choose your version of apache then go to directives and search for redirect There you will see a few interesting things 1. It does not support any of those extras like [N,L], that is only in the rewrite engine, which might be better for you 2. apache 2.0 docs state that the old url i.e. /folder is case sensitive, as does the 2.2 docs. !.3 does not say but I think it is fairly safe to assume it is case sensitive too You might want to look at the mod_rewrite directives to use instead if you are having problems with case sensitivity So look up RewriteRule

I have no idea what the folder bit means or does. Is this put in by you or is this a 301 switch? What exactly are you trying to do. In english. |
