Hi everyone. Total newbie here. Been doing html and php for a few years. Just now venturing into Apache.
Anyway, I need help with the htaccess file for one of my sites. I've searched everywhere, and I can't find a solution for my problem.
System Info:
Easy Apache v3.18.1
CentOS 6.3 (x86_64)
So I'm trying to redirect all URLs in a certain query range to a new website.
ie
mydomain.com/?p=35000
mydomain.com/?p=35001
mydomain.com/?p=35002
mydomain.com/?p=35003
etc.
all need to 301 redirect to myotherdomain.com
I don't need to append each query to the new domain. All the URLs simply need to redirect to the naked domain of the other site.
so
mydomain.com/?p=35000 is not redirecting to myotherdomain.com/?p=35000
It is simply redirecting to myotherdomain.com
Also, I need to redirect the specific series ([35000-35999]) to the new domain.
Oh, and I want to redirect the www and the non-www URLs.
I've attempted to write the code myself, but when I upload the htaccess file, the URLs are not redirecting. I'm doing something wrong.
Here's what I've tried:
| Code: |
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mydomain\.com$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^p=([35000-35999]*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "http\:\/\/myotherdomain\.com\/" [R=301,L]
|
What did I mess up?
Thanks.

I think
this
| Code: |
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^p=([35000-35999]*)$
|
should be
| Code: |
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^p=([35000-35999]+)$

Thanks so much for the idea. I tried it, but it doesn't work.
By the way, a few minutes ago, I tried a regular redirect in order to make sure that my apache is working properly and to make sure that the htaccess file is in the right place.
I did this:
| Code: |
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^slangbuzz\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.slangbuzz\.com$
RewriteRule ^randomtext$ "http\:\/\/myotherdomain\.com\/" [R=301,L] |
And that simple redirect works fine.
I just can't figure our what's wrong with my query string redirect. |
