move all request from a directory to other

[alfredo_gz]

Hello Friends,

I've moved my site to another directory:

www.mydomain.com/web to www.mydomain.com

i've moved all the content from the web directory to the root. but Google has indexed all my web with the Web directory such as:

www.mydomain.com/wev/es/contact.html but now is
www.mydomain.com/es/contact.html

how can i do this?

many thanks in advance

Alfredo

A simple one-line RewriteRule with [R=301,L] flags should do the trick.

What have you tried so far?

There are more than 75 000 threads in this forum. More than 10 000 of them include code for redirects.

You'll likely need a RewriteRule and the [R=301,L] flags.

Redirect /web/ http://www.example.com/
-or-
RedirectMatch ^web/(/(.*))?$ http://www.example.com/$2
-or-
RewriteRule ^web/(/(.*))?$ http://www.example.com/$2 [R=301,L]

These are all essentially identical in function, except that the last two can handle the missing trailing slash on requests for just "example.com/web, and so prevent mod_dir from having to be invoked to correct that missing slash.

See the Apache mod_alias and mod_rewrite documentation for more info. Links to other useful resources are in our Apache Forum Charter, and several example and tutorial threads are in our Apache Forum Library.
