TYPO3 9.5.20 .htaccess redirect - too many redirects

Question

I am trying to redirect all pages to /uk apart from the home page and the /uk page but I get localhost redirected you too many times when it loads the /uk page. I thought !^/uk$ would solve this. Any help is greatly appreciated

Here is my code in the .htaccess file;

# Add your own rules here.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/uk$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !cookieConfirmed=1;? [NC]
    RewriteRule . /uk [L,R=301]
</IfModule>

Answer 1

These should work:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/uk/?$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) /uk [L,R=301]

Maybe you added a slash to all URLs so the too many redirects occurs? So I made a / at the end optional.
