htaccess rule not working

[ben03]

Hi there,

I am using a few of re-write rules, the last of which is not working. I assume it clashes with the others in some way?

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^oldurl.co.uk$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.oldurl.co.uk$
RewriteRule (.*)$ http://www.newurl.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^newurl.co.uk$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.newurl.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

</IfModule>

Any pointers here would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

All of those rules tell Apache that they should be the last rule matched, so if either of those other rules matches it's not going to execute any more.  In particular, if that second rule matches it will not execute the third one.

Thank you justsomeguy. I am assuming it is the ',L' that needs removing from each of the brackets? That is the danger of taking different snippets from different tutorials I suppose. 

Thanks for the help

I don't think you'd want to do that, some of those rules you do want to be the last rule processed.  You need to order them based on priority though, which rules do you want to happen first in which order.
