Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects d         


        

Answer 1

As RC already said, .* will also match addnew/. And since the L flag causes a reinjection of the rewritten rule, you will get an infinite recursion.

So adjust the rule so it doesn’t match your addnew/:

RewriteRule !^addnew/ addnew%{REQUEST_URI}
