htaccess redirect

I am having a little difficulty figuring a problem out. Trying to redirect pagination pages to the main for 1... ie /cat/name/page-1 to /cat/name

in htaccess have tried

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/page-1$ /$1/$2 [L]

but this seems to make everything a 500 int error.

What am I doing wrong? thanks in advance everyone.

 

bump, thanks guys let me know if need more info..

 

bump this is a tricky one! thnx

 

rule works fine when I test it on my site... so it must be something else in your .htacess file that is messing it up. What's the rest of your .htaccess? You have that needed part in front of that url right?

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/page-1$ /$1/$2 [L]
