Apache redirect

Question

I would like to redirect a URL using RedirectMatch within Apache eg,

/test/one/?? redirect to /test/two/??

where the ?? represents any string that follows

Answer 1

You can use mod_rewrite for this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/test/one/(.*) /test/two/$1 [L,R=301]

The R flag redirects the page rather than internally rewriting the URI. 301 is the HTTP status code for "Permanently Moved" - if you'd rather use another, you can change it to one of these.
