: RewriteRule with Query_String I have http//royatlon.north.com/cybersource/fp/clear.png?org_id=1snn5n9w&session_id=sterling40272003&m=1 and I would like to rewrite it to this: https://media.north.com/fp/clear.png?org_id=1sn

@Steve110

Pl. try this:

RedirectMatch 301 ^/royatlon.north.com/cybersource/(.*) media.north.com/

I think you're reasonably close. However, & (ampersands) are not HTML encoded in the request, so you should check just for & and not &. Special HTML characters should only be HTML encoded in your source HTML document.

I think the few omitted spaces (argument delimiters) are perhaps just due to the copy/paste of your code?

Try this (in .htaccess - I assume):

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*org_id=1snn5n9w&session_id=sterling40272003&m=1(&.*)?$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^cybersource/fp/clear.png$ media.north.com/fp/clear.png?org_id=1snn5n9w&session_id=sterling40272003&m=1 [R=301,L]


It looks a bit strange that you would be matching against the session_id, since the session id is usually something which changes often and is potentially a bit random - but I assume that is required?

This also checks for optional characters before and after your source query string, as hinted at by your code, although this isn't specifically stated in your original question.

If royatlon.north.com and media.north.com are served from the same place then you may need to also include a RewriteCond directive for the HTTP_HOST.



EDIT: In view of your recent edit, I think AgA's solution (mod_alias) is perhaps preferable, however, in keeping with mod_rewrite and assuming you do need to match the exact query string and not simply pass it through, then...

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^org_id=1snn5n9w&session_id=sterling40272003&m=d$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^cybersource/fp/clear.png$ media.north.com/fp/clear.png [R=301,L]


This matches a single digit (d) at the end of the query string and the same query string is then passed through to the target.
