Title: 301 redirect problem
Post by: pty10 on December 06, 2010, 08:01:11 AM

Hi guys,

Just trying to setup a 301 permanent redirection from http://www.domainname.com.au/index.php, http://domainname.com.au/index.php to http://www.domainname.com.au using:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domainname.com.au$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domainname.com.au$
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ "http\:\/\/www\.domainname\.com\.au" [R=301,L]

The redirection works but I'm not able to login to the website. I get the following error:

'You need to fill in a username.'

I suspect it has to do with the guest sessions of the website

Can someone tell me how can I get around this problem and using the 301 redirection? Am I missing something from the Rewrite or needs to be modify to something else?

Regards,

E

Will try that. Can you tell me what [NC] is or stands for?

Say hello to Mr. Apache Documentation:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/en/misc/rewriteguide.html
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/en/mod/mod_rewrite.html
There you'll find your answer :)
