I want to be able to open the following url
http://example.com/login/12345
and in the background, it should load:
http://example.com/index.php?endpoint=login&access_key=12345
Obviously, I have tried many htaccess generators to create an appropriate RewriteRule set.
For example the following (from: http://www.generateit.net/mod-rewrite/index.php):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)$ /index.php?endpoint=$1&access_key=$2 [L]
Even though I know for a fact that .htaccess and mod_rewrite is enabled on my server (i tried to setup a test to redirect all requests from example.com to example2.com using htaccess and mod_rewrite, and it worked), I can't get this to work.
I have now spent nearly 2 hours to find for a solution on stackoverflow and other websites, but all my attempts failed.
I hope someone can help me find out the correct way to rewrite my url in the above example.like explained above.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Add this to the .htaccess
file in your DOCUMENT_ROOT
Assuming login
is not variable
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^login/(\d+)$ index.php?endpoint=login&access_key=$1 [L,NC,DPI]
** If login
is variable**
This is in case you want to redirect not only for login
, but also for urls such as http://example.com/housenumber/12345
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/(\d+)$ index.php?endpoint=$1&access_key=$2 [L,NC,DPI]
Tested on actual Apache 2.2 and 2.4 :)

Try with this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^\/]*)/([^\/]*)$ /index.php?endpoint=$1&access_key=$2 [L]

When tested, here is the result:
