What's wrong with this .htaccess rewrite - apache

I spend a lot of time trying to figure out what's wrong with this .htaccess rewrite with no success. It produces a "500 Internal Server Error" :(
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(([^/]+/)*)gallery/
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%1gallery/cache/$0 -f
RewriteRule ^.+ cache/$0 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.* index.php/$0 [L]
Can anyone see any problem?

I guess your second rule is causing this error. Try to exclude the target you are redirecting to:
RewriteCond $0 !^index\.php/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.* index.php/$0 [L]

Mod Re-Write Struggling With Rule Not Working

So after a lot of testing - I've started to figure out my problems but still can't get the rewrite to work.
This is how my htaccess file looks now.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^schemdetail/id/(.*)$ schematicdetails?id=$1 [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://abfielder.com/$1 [R=301,L]
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule (.*) $1.php [L]
Rule 1 is the one I'm having problems with
RewriteRule ^schemdetail/id/(.*)$ schematicdetails?id=$1 [L,NC]
My understanding is now if I type this url into my browser
https://abfielder.com/schemdetail/id/158
I should get
https://abfielder.com/schematicdetails?id=158
The test of this here
https://htaccess.madewithlove.com/
Tells me my rules are ok.
And rules 2 and 3 are working fine.
However when I try and access
https://abfielder.com/schemdetail/id/158
I essentially get the page not found error.
Ok think I've finally fixed this for anyone else who is having issues with mod rewrite where they wish to have a rule to remove the file extension and other rewrites working together the order matters. Lastly if you're on a shared host type thing you may also need to set the rewrite base. This is how my htaccess file looks now.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^schemdetail/id/(.*)$ schematicdetails?id=$1 [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://abfielder.com/$1 [R=301,L]
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule (.*) $1.php [L]
This allows me to have url's without the .php extension.
It also allows for
schemdetail/id/100 to be translated into schematicdetails?id=100

how to change url to a clean url that works

I've been looking for an answer for my problem, however the things I tried didnt work out. What I've been trying to do is to create a beatiful url for this link:
mywebsite.com/blog_template?slug_url=blog-post-name
to
mywebsite.com/blog-post-name
To achieve this I tried the following code:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^blog_template/([^/]+)$ /blog_template?slug_url=$1 [L]
But my code didnt work... Any advice?
Here’s the full htaccess my website:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
ErrorDocument 404 http://91.218.67.117/404/
ErrorDocument 500 http://91.218.67.117/500/
#redirect 404
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/500/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /pages/errors/500.php [L]
#remove php
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.php$ /$1 [R,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ /$1.php [NC,END]
Considering you want to rewrite this request in backend to index.php(OR change it to appropriate file's name in case its some other php file). With your shown samples and attempts please try following .htaccess Rules.
Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/blog_template\?slug_url=(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ index.php?slug_url=$1 [QSA,L]
ErrorDocument 500 /pages/errors/500.php
NOTE: Please keep your .htaccess file and index.php(OR any php file which is taking rewrite request in backend for that matter) in same path(your root etc).
Your attempt was close. Just a small fix:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/?([^/]+)/?$ /blog_template?slug_url=$1 [L]
This relies on additional rewriting rules to get applied though, since /blog_template most likely is not a resource the http server can somehow "execute" immediately. So you may want to combine above rule with other rules, which you did not reveal to us, which is why I cannot say anything about that.
If you also want to redirect requests to the "old" URL, then that variant should do:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^slug_url=([^/]+)$
RewriteRule ^/?blog_template$ / [QSD,R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/?([^/]+)/?$ /blog_template?slug_url=$1 [L]
It is a good idea to start out using a R=302 _temporary_redirection and to only change that to a R=301 permanent redirection once everything works as expected. That prevents nasty caching issues on the client side.

htaccess - remove .php extension and keep variables

original url - example.com/stars.php?id=9&s=lorem-ipsum
want to be - example.com/stars/9/lorem-ipsum
here is my try - getting error 500
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/stars\.php\?id=([^&]*)&s=([^\s&]*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2? [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)\.php$ /stars.php?id=$1&s=$2 [L]
.htaccess and stars.php are placed in the root - example.com
pls help
With your shown samples, could you please try following. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
##Rule to handle external redirection to user friendly URL here.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(stars)\.php\?id=(\d+)&s=([^\s]*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1/%2/%3? [R=301,L]
##Rule to handle non-existing files/directories should be served by php files in backend.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?$ $1.php?id=$2&s=$3 [L]

htaccess map anything after /path to path

Here's the scenario:
I have a site that uses various mod_rewrites to remove file extensions and the such. What I need now is to send any traffic to /path/something/something/ to /path/ but keeping the segmentation in place.
Here's my file, it's the last rule that's causing problems in that it's redirecting to /path rather than keeping the pathname and rendering /path
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\s(.*/)index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule . %1 [NE,R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\s.+\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.php$ /$1 [NE,R=301,L,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ $1.php [L]
#This is the problem child!
RewriteRule ^path/([^/]+)/(.*)$ /path [NC]
Thanks for any tips in advance!
Looks like I stumbled across the solution through trial and error:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^path/(.*)$ path/index.php/$1 [L]
Probably should've mentioned the index.php in the question too!

How is .htaccess still rewriting this?

I am trying to rewrite all but PHP files to a file.
I'm using htaccess, with the following rules:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/.+\.(php)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatcher.php [QSA,L]
Somehow, PHP files still get redirected to dispatcher.php.
How so? I can't get it.
Any help appreciated.
Actually you should not leave any line break after a condition statement and the following rewriteRule in htaccess file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/.+\.(php)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatcher.php [QSA,L]
Please try removing the empty line after RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/.+\.(php)$
