Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : HTACCESS 301 Redirect causing Internal Server Error
I can't figure out what's causing my internal server error. This works OK:
Redirect 301 /apply.asp http://sub.example.co.uk/work.php
Redirect 301 /default.asp http://sub.example.co.uk/
But it breaks if I add this line:
Redirect 301 /gallery.asp http://sub.example.co.uk/services/
Any ideas?

What are those two funny characters at the start of the line?
Where? What characters? (Unless this is the problem)
I see no non-standard characters other than alphanumeric and : / .

It's in the extended ascii table as a square. I'd remove them if you can, delete the whole line(possibly up to a couple of characters on the previous line), and type it in manually, should work then.
Excellent. This must've come from a stupid Word document I had to copy all of the URLs out of (Word + web dev = nightmare) but I couldn't even see them. They don't show up in my .txt file.
Thanks, it's really good that someone else could see them!

Pecisely why using a wordprocessor for an editor is a no no because of all the additional extras that come with.
Use Notepad or Notepad++ or one of the many other alternatives, you will save yourself a lot of nightmares.
