OpenShift and redirect in .htaccess

I have a Wordpress app deployed on OpenShift and a domain alias associated, i.e. www.example.org. Now I would like to add another alias, i.e. www.example2.org, and gracefully redirect all the request from www.example.org => www.example2.org. I tried to do this via .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.org$
RewriteRule (.*)$ http://www.example2.org/$1 [R=301,L]

Whenever contact www.example.org it generates an infinite loop of redirects and I can not understand why.

Openshift rewrites the redirect header, but you can prevent this by adding the port number to the URL. See more here.

There's no need for RewriteCond. And example.org is not an alias of example2.org. It's a brand new A record. You can eventually redirect www.example.org via your domain registrar's dashboard or create index.php with header('Location: http://www.example2.org');.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example2.org/$1 [R,QSA,L]
