Redirection in .htaccess

[Bharath_ATZ]

Hi All,

The problem is with the .htaccess file I have written 301 redirection code for Apache server but once I upload .htaccess file from ftp the website is throwing 500 error. Please help as I'm new to the redirection files.

Hi, you probably made a mistake in the .htaccess  this will trow a 500 server error.

did you made a backup of the .htaccess

otherwise remove the .htaccess an check if you still get a 500 error?

this is how you add a 301 redirect in .htaccess

Redirect 301 /old/file.html http://www.domainname.com/new.html
