Hi People,

I'm looking to create a rule where dead links pointing to a missing file in a subfolder will redirect to just that subfolder in question thereby hitting either the "default.php" or "index.php" file.

The problem with this particular site is the usage of "index.php" in many subfolders so the other rule for "index.php" sends some of these links to the root domain. This is better than a dead link but not optimal for conversion. Any help would be appreciated.

# Helicon ISAPI_Rewrite configuration file
# Version 3.1.0.78

So, you have ISAPI_Rewrite 3?

Then please try the following lines:

RewtiteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^folder/subfolder/[^.]+\.[^.]+$
folder/subfolder/ [NC.R=301,L]

Hi Anton,

Your suggestion worked like a charm but now I have one more (which should be easier but for some reason its not working).

I have several instances where inbound links have sub-directories in them that were either deleted or never existed in the target sites folder structure. e.g. /subdirectory1/subdirectory2/subdirectory3/file.php. Subdirectory3 doesn't exist so I thought the following would fix the problem but it doesn't;

Rewriterule /subdirectory1/subdirectory2/subdirectory3/file.php http://www.domain.com/subdirectory1/subdirectory2/file.php [I,O,RP,L]

Any help would be appreciated. BTW I want this to be a permanent redirect so would the trailing conditions be "[R=301,L]"?

Please try to fix your rule like this:

RewriteRule ^subdirectory1/subdirectory2/subdirectory3/file\.php$ http://www.domain.com/subdirectory1/subdirectory2/file.php [NC,R=301,L]

Yes, the correct syntax for permanent redirect in ISAPI_Rewrite 3 is R=301.
