Can you exclude a file from mod-rewrite?

Is there a way to exclude a specific virtual directory AND file name from being processed by mod-rewrite? Right now mod-rewrite is correctly rewritting about 50 virtual directories and filenames. I have one specific directory/file name that I do not want processed so it can go on to be processed by a script. Because this file name doesn't exist, I am having problems.

I really don't want to do a RewriteRule for all 50 file names. I need something like ^bluewidgets/directory/somedirectory/somefilename.html to be excluded from the following rule.


Options +Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^bluewidgets/directory/([a-zA-Z_]+)/(.*)$ /bluewidgets/directory/widget/widget.html [R=301,L]

 

Just add a new RewriteCond which matches the file / directory that you want to be excluded

Options +Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/path/to/excluded/files

RewriteRule ^bluewidgets/directory/([a-zA-Z_]+)/(.*)$ /bluewidgets/directory/widget/widget.html [R=301,L]

I had tried that, and for some reason it isn't working. Thank you for the input.
