Redirect a Directory to New Location using .htaccess
After migrating system from temporary server to a new server, we will have to request all users to go to the new site.
I am not an expert in Apache rewrite rules, but finally found this way to redirect everything from a specific directory to a new location.
RedirectMatch 301 / http://blog.enrii.com
Save the file as .htaccess, then put the file into the folder you want to redirect (should be somewhere inside your htdocs folder). Replace http://blog.enrii.com with the new site that you want to redirect.
In case it doesn't work, see if the following line in httpd.conf is commented:
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
Un-comment it if necessary.
That's how I finally got it working. Please let me know if I am not doing it correctly.
