[users@httpd] Redirection problem with dynamic url parameters
I need to redirect:
https://illinois.edu/blog/view?blogId=291
To
http://illinois.edu/db/view/291
The key is that 291 may be any number in both the from and to URLs.
Can someone point me in the proper direction on how to redirect these
types of URLs?
Thanks,

Like this:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} blogid=(\d+)
RewriteRule /blog/view /db/view/%1
Since you're staying on the same server you don't really need proxy or
redirect, unless you really want to change the URL as it appears in
the browser. In this case you'd use:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} blogid=(\d+)
RewriteRule /blog/view http://illinois.edu/db/view/%1 [R,L]

You can't match a query string like that. You have to use a RewriteCond.

But it won't work, because the query string is not part of the string
which is tested in your rule-pattern. As the docs states, you'll need
a RewriteCond to check the query string.

Ah dammit, obvious mistake, this is better:
RewriteRule ^blog/view\?blogId=(\d+) http://illinois.edu/db/view/$1 [R=301]

I think you want something like this:
RewriteRule ^blog/view\?blogId=(\d)+ http://illinois.edu/db/view/$1 [R=301]
Totally untested, it's been awhile but I think the + quantifier means
"one or more of the preceeding"
