MapFile not working

[cfgilles Profile]

Hi,

We have a new website and we want to 301 redirect the old pages to a new one but the mapfile.txt is not working. Can you please help me with this issue ?

I looked ate the FAQ (Comprehensive map files insight) but nothing is working (or I don't understand it correctly...).

OLD PAGES:
http://www.site.com/page1.cfm
http://www.site.com/page2.cfm
...

Those will ALL point to : index.cfm

Here's the code I use :

.htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteMap mymap txt:mapfile.txt
RewriteRule /([^/]+)\.cfm /{mymap:%1} [NC,R=301,L]


mapfile.txt
page1.cfm index.cfm
page2.cfm index.cfm
page3.cfm index.cfm
page4.cfm index.cfm
page5.cfm index.cfm

Thanks for your help!
