[SOLVED] .htaccess support? (Very simple question).

[Neal]

1.Is there any way to defaultly forward a certain page to another?

Example:

http://domain.org/File --> http://domain.org/file.html ?

I have a .htaccess in my /root/ folder.

In the file, it has:

RedirectMatch "^/Gerontology/?$" "./Gerontology.html"

But not working..?

2.I have this problem.

http://domain.org/file works, but not http://www.domain.org/file

Any way to make it work for the www too? The www makes it not work (for that specific file).

Thanks.

Neal.

Anything in the Logs ?

Quote:http://domain.org/file works, but not http://www.domain.org/file

DNS right configured ?

Sorry wrong error.

My file manager was down all yesterday so I couldn't post it.

It's:

cannot redirect '/Gerontology' to './Gerontology.html'; target is not a valid absoluteURI or abs_path

(From the error logs.)

What I have in .htaccess under /root/ is:

RedirectMatch "^/Gerontology/?$" "./Gerontology.html"

---

And if I instead, use:

RedirectMatch ^Gerontology/?$ Gerontology.html

Rather than getting a 500, I get a 403. It forwarded to /Gerontology/ but not Gerontology.html (it at least added a /).

Hey nevermind to all my questions I figured it out. Going to rename this topic solved if possible.
