Re: [users@httpd] Rewriterule syntax not working

["Darly Coupet" <apache@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Josha,

Thanks for your patience and help.  I do not have access to a server and the application that is serving the old url's.

I think it is a syntax issue, one old URL routed to one new URL.

> Old url
> http://www.sitename.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=AWLAS&Category_Code=Abc+Xyz
>
> New URL
> http://www.sitename.com/index.php?action=""

#Begin htaccess content 
# htaccess is located is subfolder name Merchant2
# merchant.mv is located is subfolder name Merchant2

<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_value session.use_trans_sid 0
</IfModule>

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=AWLAS&Category_Code=Abc+Xyz$
RewriteRule 
merchant.mv  http://www.sitename.com/index.php?action=""> [R=301,L]

#End htaccess content

Then install apache on your local server with as similar a config as
possible, test and debug it there using the RewriteLog, then upload
it.

Sorry, but debugging mod_rewrite without the RewriteLog is like
driving blindfolded.
