Url rewrite rules error: The requested URL was not found on this server

I am create the rules in the .htaccess file in my domain folder.

My url on server is :

https://www.everyoneknows.com.my/customer/?loc=dashboard

And I want change url to:

https://www.everyoneknows.com.my/customer/dashboard/

In the .htaccess file, I write the rules are:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^everyoneknows\.com\.my [OR,NC] 
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.everyoneknows.com.my/$1 [R,L]

##External redirect to /customer/dashboard url rules here.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^loc\=dashboard$
RewriteRule ^customer/$ https://www.everyoneknows.com.my/customer/dashboard/? [R=301,L]

And the error message is shown:

Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Solution

  • You need a redirect rule for old URL to new and an internal rewrite rule to handle pretty URL:

    RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^everyoneknows\.com\.my [OR,NC] 
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^ https://www.everyoneknows.com.my%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,NE,L]

# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(customer)/\?loc=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2/? [R=301,L,NE]

# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(customer)/([\w-]+)/?$ $1/?loc=$2 [L,QSA,NC]

    This assumes there is no .htaccess in customer/ subdirectory. Make sure to clear your browser cache before testing this change.
