Hi everybody,

I'm trying to add a simple rewrite rule. I was wondering if someone could help me with it. I'm running helicon 2. Here is the rule on Windows Server 2003.

RewriteRule ^/redirectToGoogle.html$  http://www.google.co.uk/ [NC,L]

when I try to browse it, I get a "The page cannot be found" error

http://site/redirectToGoogle.html

Any help is most appreciated,

John

Another newbie.

I am getting the exact same problem.  I'm also using version 2 on Windows Server 2003.

I can do a redirect to a local page (e.g. "/default.aspx"), but not to an external website.  I keep getting page cannot be found.

any ideas?

Use this syntax. You are missing a "\" which is necessary between http and //

RewriteRule ^/redirectToGoogle.html$  http\://www.google.co.uk/ [NC,L]

HTH,

Tarun

Correct rule is:

RewriteRule /redirectToGoogle.html http\://www.google.co.uk/ [I,R]
