Redirect URL with Query String using RedirectMatch

2018-04-17 04:06 Mike Wolford imported from Stackoverflow

I'm trying to use RedirectMatch to redirect URLs with a question mark left over from an SEO plugin. Our vbulletin 4.2.5 forum is using Dragonbyte SEO to rewrite URLs but some external sites are still linking to the old URLs. We also have a strange issue with an equal sign being appended to some URLs which also breaks things. I've been trying to create redirect rules for these issues but everything I've tried seems to either cause an error or not work at all. I'd really appreciate any assistance I could get with this.

Example URL: http://subdomain.example.com/content/?123-My-Article-Title

Desired Redirect: http://subdomain.example.com/content/123-My-Article-Title.html

Live Server: LiteSpeed Test Server: Apache 2.4.27

example .htaccess attempts:

RewriteRule ^(\/content\/)\?([0-9]*[-a-z,A-Z]*)$ http://subdomain.example.com/$1$2.html [R=302, L]

RedirectMatch 302 /content/?([0-9]*[a-zA-Z-]*) http://subdomain.example.com/$1.html

    You can not redirect querystring using RedirectMatch directive. You need to match against %{QUERY_STRING} variable using mod-rewrite .

    RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.+)$
RewriteRule ^content/?$ http://Subdomain.example.com/content/%1.html? [L,R]

  • Extract words using regex

    I have a string query and I want to match and extract specif words. when I have this word word.EXACT extract the container of this word

    like MESH.EXACT("blood glucose monitoring") extract the word "blood glucose monitoring"

    • words.exact("N-Words") -> result "N-Words"
    • words.exact(N-Words) -> result N-Words

    Query_Input= (EMB.EXACT("insulin treatment")) and (MESH.EXACT("blood glucose monitoring")) OR "Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose”

    the output needs to be like that

    Query_out="insulin treatment" "blood glucose monitoring" "Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose”

  • CSV File Manipulation

    Say I have two CSV files. The main file is complete with data on customers:

    CODE, NAME, SURNAME, GROUP
"A0001","Bo","Bamson","1"
"A0002","Robert","Burnham","2"
"A0003","Foo","Bar","2"
...

    The second file contains only two fields:

    CODE, GROUP
"B0004","3"
"A0003","1"
"C0001","2"
...

    By using the CODE field as a "key" the second file needs to replace the corresponding customer data in the main file (in this example "GROUP"). The main file should then look like this: 

    CODE, NAME, SURNAME, GROUP
"A0001","Bo","Bamson","1"
"A0002","Robert","Burnham","2"
"A0003","Foo","Bar","1"
...

    Customer "A0003" now has a GROUP of 1.

    What would be the simplest way to implement this? I've been fiddling around with Notepad++ and regular expressions but I'm not sure if there's an obvious solution I'm missing.

}

if (isset($_POST['startRegex'])) {

  • .htaccess configuration for https redirect and client routing

    I have Apache 2.4.27 and two problems:

    1. redirect http -> https

    2. SPA (Vue2) client routing without #

    Solution for 1(it works):

    RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} ^http$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    Solution for 2(Vue official recomendation):

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteBase /
  RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule . /index.html [L]
</IfModule>

    how to satisfy both conditions?

  • Unable to redirect to other url in apache

    I have two Redhat Linux servers, say 'original' and 'demo'. Both have apache running on them. On original server, I have a link 'http://original.com/abc' on a page which I want redirect it to http://demo.com.

    What I have done is-

    Open httpd.conf on original server and added following lines and restarted apache service:

    ProxyPass         /abc  http://demo.com/
ProxyPassReverse  /abc  http://demo.com/

    But when I am trying to access http://original.com/abc, it is redirecting me to the original server i.e. on http://original.com (not on http://demo.com)

    I have tried to find the solutions on various sites but unable to find out what the problem is.

    Edit: Output of curl -v http://original.com/abc:

  • Apache Child process consume huge memory
