mod_rewrite user id error

Question

I\'m new to rewriting urls and wanted to know how i would rewrite

From this /profile/4

To this /profile.php?id=4

I have this rule so far

Answer 1

Your rule is just fine so there's a redirection somewhere conflicting with it. I suppose that you don't have a real directory at /profile/4 so they main candidate left is mod_negotiation. Try this:

Options -MultiViews
