.htaccess RewriteEngine not working

I have this .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/test$ /home.php

So mysite.com/home.php and mysite.com/test are supposed to be the same now?
But when I go to mysite.com/test I get a 404 error.

Any help?

That is because of leading slash in your rule.

Change that to:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^test/?$ /home.php [L,NC]

.htaccess is per directory config hence Apache doesn't match leading / while matching a URI `/test1
