.Htaccess RewriteRule redirects all pages to 404 page not found error

I have a long url in the following format

      example.com/user.php?uname=foo&pass=bar

the problem with this url is that it is not at all memorable,

So I want to change it into a search engine friendly url 

  example.com/foo/bar

I have tried this rule in my htaccess that is on the web root

 RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/?$mysite.com/user.php?uname=$1&pass=$2

but the problem is that its not working ,It redirects every page requests to 404 not found.

Any ideas?

Try this:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/?$ /user.php?uname=$1&pass=$2 [QSA,L]

The conditions make sure you don't rewrite any existing file/directories on the server.
