Hi,

I was trying to redirect /foswiki/bin/view to /view. Apparently the redirect tool in cPanel doesn't work when given a URL path that corresponds to a real directory. I found that I had to put my rewrite rules in the .htaccess in the foswiki/bin subdirectory, not in the root directory.

Furthermore, the 'source' URLs didn't have the /foswiki/bin part. Here are the rules that I am using right now:

RewriteRule ^view$ "/view" [R=302,L,NE]

RewriteRule ^view/(.*) "/view/$1" [R=302,L,NE]
