.htaccess Redirect 301 issues
-
I have completely rewritten my web site, adding structure to the file directories. Subsequently added was Redirect information within the .htaccess file.
The following example ...
Redirect 301 /armaflex.html http://www.just-insulation.com/002-brands/armaflex.html
Returns this response in the URL bar of ...
http://www.just-insulation.com/002-brands/armaflex.html?file=armaflex
I am at a loss to understand why the suffix "?file=armaflex" is addedThe following code is inserted at the top of the file ...
RewriteEngine Onredirect html pages to the root domain
RewriteRule ^index.html$ / [NC,R,L]
Force www. prefix in URLs and redirect non-www to www
RewriteCond %{http_host} ^just-insulation.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.just-insulation.com/ [R=301,NC]Any advice would be most welcome.

I think there's a problem with the Redirect and RewriteRule functions clashing. Try changing your redirects to RewriteRule. Let me know if this works.
RewriteRule ^armaflex.html$ http://www.just-insulation.com/002-brands/armaflex.html [R=301,NC]

Thank you for your kind advice. Unfortunately, the result remains the same ...
http://www.just-insulation.com/002-brands/armaflex.html?file=armaflex -
What happens when you remove all of your other rules and just have the 301 redirect?

Thanks for the suggestion.
The issue appears to derive from the fact that our web pages are published with .tpl (template) extensions, which are rewritten via PHP to include pricing information, then presented to the browser with an .html extension.
