| Hi, I'm using Apache 2.2.3 on Debian. I'm trying to redirect a number of URLs that were generated by an old content management system to those generated by a new content management system. The parameter values do not map directly, so I simply intend to explicitly redirect the old style URL to the new style URL. I'm using the .htaccess file and can get it to correct redirect a rule such as: Redirect 301 /product1.html http://www.domain.com/index.php?page=shop.browse&category_id=28&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=32 However, using the old URLs with parameters does not work. I wonder if this is a character escape issue, and have tried a few variations but have had no joy. As an example, what I am trying to do, but that does not work, is: Redirect 301 /index.php?main_page=index&cPath=28 http://www.domain.com/index.php?page=shop.browse&category_id=28&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=36 Redirect 301 /index.php?main_page=index&cPath=57 http://www.domain.com/index.php?page=shop.browse&category_id=57&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=36 I'd be grateful for any pointers. Regards, Ian |
