quick htaccess question

[fatmoocow]

I'm trying to fix a podcast that is now broken after a site conversion. Somehow itunes has a broken url as the podcast rss url. So I need to 301 redirect it. This is what I'm trying to do:

Redirect 301 http://site.com/feed/index.phppodcast.php http://site.com/?feed=podcast

but that doesn't work, and wordpress just seems to give me a 404 when I go to http://site.com/feed/index.phppodcast.php which is the address itunes is trying to pull from

Any ideas?

What's the real filename? Looks like either index.php or podcast.php but doubt it's index.phppodcast.php

The first part of your redirect (Redirect 301 BLAHBLAH) should be a path relative to the top level of your site, not an absolute URL.

Try:

Redirect 301 /feed/index.phppodcast.php http://site.com/?feed=podcast

alternatively you can do:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^feed/index.phppodcast.php$ http://site.com/?feed=podcast [R=301, L]

Try the redirection plug-in.

That did it thanks!
