RewriteRule to preserve querystring

Question

I'm trying to make a redirect rule which follows this logic:

source: www.site.com/businessinfo.asp?accommID=123
destination: www.site.com/redirect.php?type=property&id=123

My code:

RewriteRule ^/businessinfo.asp$ /redirect.php?type=property&id=$1 [QSA]

I've tried a dozen different variations, but can't get anywhere. Can anyone help?

Answer 1

This should work:

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(GET|POST)\ /businessinfo\.asp\?accommID=(.*)\ HTTP 
RewriteRule ^ /redirect.php?type=property&id=%2 [R,L] 

it should redirect www.site.com/businessinfo.asp?accommID=123 to www.site.com/redirect.php?type=property&id=123

Answer 2

Thanks for the above. For future reference, we solved this with a simple one-liner...

Redirect 301 /businessinfo.asp http://www.site.com/redirect.php

The querystring appends anyway, so we just rewrote the redirect script slightly to deal with accommID instead of ID.
