.htaccess Redirect 301 rule - please help me!

Hi,
I'm setting 301 Redirects in the .htaccess of a website.

I need to redirect a dynamic url like this:
http://www.mysite.com/en/details_links_en.php?catnavid=7639&navpage=1
to http://www.mysite.com
The catnavid and the navpage values can change.

I've put in the .htaccess:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ en/details_links_en\.php\?catnavid(.*)&navpage=(.*)\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^en/details_links_en\.php$ http://www.mysite.com? [R=301,L]

But it doesn't work.
Can anyone help me?
Where am I going wrong?

Thanks!

 

THE_REQUEST is the HTTP request header.
example [GET /index.php HTTP/1.1]
Is there a reason that you are wanting to test against GET/POST/HEAD etc?

If not, then perhaps you want to use
REQUEST_URI

I might suggest changing your RewriteCond to a different regex such as:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} en/details_links_en\.php\?catnavid=(.*)&navpage=(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com? [R=301,L]

I didn't test the above, so please work carefully.

I would be interesting in knowing if that fixes your issue.

 

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I've tested your code but unfortunately it still doesn't work.
I can't understand why....
Could you suggest me a fix or give me a hint?

Thank you!

 

Um, I can suggest perhaps send me a PM with your implementation and the URL you are trying?
