Re: apache redirection does not work

[Sharjeel Tariq <sharjeel.tariq1@xxxxxxxxx>]

 the redirection rule is written in a separate file under <VirtualHost *>.


RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$
 RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R]


The issue was that above rule works for all urls except for urls like http://example.com/news/headlines/more.jsp?content=20090624_075115_6540


the rule redirects the above url to home page of site

http://www.example.com/index.jsp?content=20090624_075115_6540


Thanks,
Sharjeel.

Did you paste the right snippet? That's a pretty elaborate regex, and
doesn't redirect at all but proxies.
