RewriteRule oddity

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a RewriteRule that works on all but one (1) input where I would
expect it to work.

Here is the site (currently very ugly, but functional):
http://telephonebook.com/index.php

The example redirect links all work.

If you try it with '2' the re-direct behaves as expected:
http://telephonebook.com/2

However, for some reason beyond my ken, using '1' does NOT redirect:
http://telephonebook.com/1

The rewrite rule is not all that tricky:
RewriteRule ^([0-9()-]+)([0-9()a-zA-Z-]*)$ /index.php?number=$1$2 [R,L]

Why would '2' match that rule, but '1' would not?

It's POSSIBLE that 1and1.com (the webhosts at the moment) have done
something with their rewrite rules and ErrorDocument, which I can't
even see much less edit.
http://telephonebook.com/ab

Hmmmmm.
http://telephonebook.com/a
doesn't do their 404 lookup either.

So, like, that almost for sure proves that their rules are at fault,
right?...

I can't turn RewriteLogLevel on in .htaccess, so can't really debug
this very easily :-(
I get 500 Internal Server Error trying to do that.

We'll probably move this over to a racked server so the issue may
resolve itself once we are free of 1and1.com, but I wanted to confirm
my thinking more than anything, since I'm not a mod_rewrite guru by
any means.
