Mod_rewrite condition not working

Question

I've checked the regexs and they all match but for some reason its not working in mod_rewrite?

I would like

http://www.system.com/chips/intel?c=xxx

to read:

http://www.system.com/chips/intel/xxx

I have:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (c=.*)$
RewriteRule (/([^/]+)/?).*?c=(.*) http://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1/$2/ [L]

And I'm getting an error. What's going on here?

Answer 1

Your regular expression doesn't match that URL. As you have it:

• group 1 matches /chips/
• group 2 matches chips
• group 3 matches xxx

You probably want something like:

RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)/([^/]+)\?c=([^&]*)  http://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1/$2/$3 [R=301]

Answer 2

Don't think rewritecond get's the uri params unless you have "QSA"
