Redirect only homepage of one domain to new domain

[kheruc]

I'm having trouble with redirecting homepage to new domain.

I just want that http://www.example.com/ redirects to http://www.example2.com/

I tried with:
Redirect 301 / http://www.example2.com/

but it redirects all subpages (i.e. http://www.example.com/page1.html -> http://www.example2.com/page1.html) to new domain and I don't want that.

Please help

Of course it does... Since that's what the Apache mod_alias Redirect directive documentation [httpd.apache.org] says it will do... :)

Try RedirectMatch [httpd.apache.org] instead:

RedirectMatch 301 ^/$ http://www.example2.com/
