redirecting specific documents

[simonh Profile]

Hi,

I'm trying to redirect urls for specific documents in the same directory (where old documents have been deleted/replaced) but this doesn't work? I'm a complete newb to ISAPI but have a whole batch of these to redirect;


RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/Content/File/PDF/old_doc.pdf$ /Content/File/PDF/new-doc.pdf [R=301,L]

Help greatly appreciated.

Hello,

In case that's rule is in .htacces file, try using the following instead:

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^Content/File/PDF/old_doc\.pdf$ /Content/File/PDF/new-doc.pdf [NC,R=301,L]

Hi, thanks for the reply Andrew.

I've tried that, but it doesn't work either... ?

Thanks

Than lets go to the httpd.conf and run the testing rule as described in FAQ.
Than you may enable logging and see error.log and rewrite.log and provide us with the log for the testing request.
