.htaccess Redirecting

Question

I'm trying to make redirects on my server using .htaccess files.

My hierarchy is like this:

File Folder > contains .htaccess and /file/ directory

If someone goes to File Folder, I want it to redirect from just / to /file/ using the .htaccess. How do I do that?

Answer 1

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^file/$ / [L]
