[users@httpd] Search & Replace + Redirect with Mod_Rewrite?

[Vik Rubenfeld <vi...@mindspring.com>]

I need to change the variable names in query strings. This is because  
I  need to get two different supplier companies talking to each other.  
(One supplier uses variable names that the other supplier doesn't  
recognize).

So I'm getting supplier A to send the URL to one of my domains, where  
I can change the variable names in the query string, and then redirect  
to the web site of supplier B.

For example, I'd like to change:

 > http://www.my_domain_name.com/wsb.dll/s/12345?DDR2=test_2_data&DDR3=
 > test_3_data

...to:

 > https://supplier_B.com/wsb.dll/s/12345?wsb5=test_2_data&wsb6=  
test_3_data

Here's my current mod rewrite code, which gives me a "Internal Server  
Error" message:

 > Options +FollowSymLinks
 > Options +Indexes
 > RewriteEngine On
 >
 > RewriteRule ^(.*)DDR2(.*)$ $1wsb5$2 [NC]
 >
 > RewriteRule ^(.*)DDR3(.*)$ $1wsb6$2 [NC,L]
 >
 > Redirect (.*)my_domain_name.com/wsb.dll/(.*) $supplier_B.com/ 
wsb.dll/$2

What is the correct way to do this?

Thanks very much in advance to all for any info.

You'll want to start here:
http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/RewriteQueryString

Then you'll want to be sure to use the RewriteLog to debug.
