Apache2 - Mod_rewrite and .htaccess - apache

Question

I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and apache 2.
Here is my phpinfo file: https://www.vivashost.com/phpinfo.php
Here is my .htacess file:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^feature-pricing-tables.html$ feature.html
Here is my /etc/apache2/sistes-available/000-default.conf file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
# The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
# the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
# redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
# specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
# match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
# value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
# However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
#ServerName www.example.com
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ServerName vivashost.com
Redirect "/" https://www.vivashost.com/
# Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,
# error, crit, alert, emerg.
# It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular
# modules, e.g.
#LogLevel info ssl:warn
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
# For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
# enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to
# include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the
# following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
# after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf".
#Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
</VirtualHost>
# vim: syntax=apache ts=4 sw=4 sts=4 sr noet
But when i try to open https://www.vivashost.com/feature.html it is giving me 404 error.
I am trying to make a rewrite rule that when you open feature.html apache2 must load the content from feature-pricing-tables.html file.
Where is my mistake, can you please help me out fix this thing ?
Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

This is a very common mistake that is made: You've declared the rule backwards.
Currently, your rule says that if I access feature-pricing-tables.html, then load up the content of feature.html.
Use this instead:
RewriteRule ^feature.html$ feature-pricing-tables.html [L]
Also, the L flag is necessary here - in case you add any other rules, you want to stop processing if there's a match for this rule.
