Apache htaccess 301 重定向到子文件夹导致重定向过多

Question

Goal

On an Apache httpd server, I would like to redirect requests made to /cms/de/foo to /cms/de/foo/bar permanently.

Failed attempt

Trying the following redirect in the .htaccess

Redirect 301 /cms/de/foo /cms/de/foo/bar

results in too many redirects.

• Request: http://threeohone.localhost/cms/de/foo
• Redirect: http://threeohone.localhost/cms/de/foo/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar/bar

As far as I understand it, the redirect is applied over and over again until it results in said error. An exact match could solve it, I believe, but I am unsure on how to accomplish it.

Language part

de represents the language and can be any of de , en and fr . Would it make sense to cover all languages within the same redirect or have explicit redirects for each language? The foo respectivley foo/bar path is the same for all languages.

Answer 1

Thank you @CBRoe for pointing out RedirectMatch . This works:

RedirectMatch 301 ^/cms/de/foo$ /cms/de/foo/bar
