I've spent the best part of this afternoon trying to figure out why my .htaccess file isn't working as expected. Basically what I wanted to do was add url rewrites to map old urls to new ones. So I created all my rewrites and pasted them into the .htaccess file, they worked in the sense that the pattern was matched and the server redirected, but it was always redirected to the directory path as in domain.com/var/www/docroot/.../tools.html I thought this might be as a result of RewriteBase being commented out and the root document not being set properly elsewhere, I don't have access to the main configuration files as this is a shared server. So I uncommented the RewriteBase / and the redirects worked as expected. The problem is when I try to navigate to the sitemap I get a 404 error, the sitemap is definitely there. Since then I have tried all sorts of things, I think I have narrowed the issue down to the
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
Whilst reading allsorts of stuff online and trying to understand the apache docs, I came accross something that said Rewrite Conditions only apply to the Rule immediately following it. So I tried adding the above Rewrite Conditions again jut before the index.php bootstrap section, doing this lets me get my sitemap, but when I try to load the home page I get a default Plesk control panel page, if I comment out the RewriteBase / my home page loads but the sitemap url tries to load domain.com/var/www/.../sitemap.xml. I'm confused and my head hurts now, I have been trying to find an answer all afternoon... I would appreciate any suggestions.

In the complete file there are lots of these types of rewrites RewriteRule .*_57581_pd\.asp tools.html [R=302,L], but there are too many to paste here so I have removed all but 1 for reference.
Have you tried changing this rule to:
RewriteRule .*_57581_pd\.asp http://%{HTTP_HOST}/tools.html [R=302,L]

I have read permissions in all files and folders for my website. However, selective css style files and other files are not accessible in the website. It results in an error of 403 forbidden when I try to access them.
Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be a big help. Thank you!

How to resolve DirectoryIndex error? as the website is not displayed properly, I can't see any images/logo etc.
i have encountered on a very weird situations in magento. I uploaded my magento website to a shared hosting(Folder name => abc/balaji/). Everything was working fine but when i added it with a domain then after i logged into my admin panel and saving anything whether it is a product,category,static blocks or deleting anything then nothing has been changing at all and When i checked the website through firebug and it shown me that the request first implemented through post(Contains index.php in the requested url) and then it moved permanently 302 to get request(without index.php). I have used several others htaccess in my website but still it is of no use. Sometimes i am getting 404 errors when using others htaccess. Below is my htacess file.

I am stucked from 2 days and not able to find any kinds of solution till now. Please help me.
I have searched Google all day for an example to do the following type of rewrite using an .htaccess file, but I've come up with nothing. I've read through "writing" rewrite rules, but I'm not finding this an easy subject to tackle.
Anyway, how would I take the following URL
whatever.com/any/number/or/level/of/directories
and rewrite to to this URL
http://www.whatever.com/any/number/or/level/of/directories?
Thank you so very much in advance.
EDIT
I forgot to mention two things about the website that I'm working with. First, I'm working on a website that was designed using Drupal 7. The module Redirect is enabled.

Something like the following should work to redirect your example.com to a www.example.com site.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
This assumes that you have the mod_rewrite module enabled.
UPDATE:
You will also need to make sure that the following declaration is in your http config file for this vhost.
<Directory /path/to/your/site>
AllowOverride All

After migrating my Drupal (6.16) installation from shared hosting to Linode VPS (Ubunto 10.04 32 bit). Whenever I click a URL it shows only the homepage. I put ?q=user at the end of the URL to login as an admin. When I logged in it is the same. I couldn't navigate to any URL. It shows only homepage. I forgot to clean Drupal cache before migration. Is it because of this? I couldn't navigate to Administer > Site configuration > Performance to clean cache, nothing works.
By the way .htaccess Rewrite on enabled as shown below.I already migrated .htaccess file to new server. There is a similar stackoverflow question but not valid for my case.

libapache2-mod-php5 php5 php-pear php5-xcache php5-suhosin php5-mysql

You're on a VPS so you should have console access.
Just install Drush and then launch "drush cache-clear"
