301 Redirect from non-www to www

Using httpd.conf

[wfernley]

I was curious if anyone could help figure out this 301 redirect from a non-www to www. For example domain.com will redirect to www.domain.com.

All my rewrites are using httpd.conf and not .htaccess.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!

The only difference is that in httpd.conf, the RewriteRule pattern would start with "^/"

Thank you for the reply.

How would you start a domain?

This is my Rewrite Condition:

# Redirect non-www to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) [domain.com...] [R=301,L]

IT does not seem to work though.

# Setup
RewriteEngine on
# Redirect non-www to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Flush your browser cache after making any changes to the code.

Thanks again Jim,

For some reason this aint workin.

I tried also clearing my cache.

If you want I can sticky you my rewrites and you can take a look. Let me know if thats possible.

Thanks again!

You'll have to be sure that the code is invoked for requests to the non-www domain; That is, the code cannot be inside any containers specific to the www domain or it won't ever be invoked for non-www requests.
