Redirect loop from old domain to new subdomain

2 Views

I have an issue with .htaccess rewrite ruleset. www.OldDomain.com with Joomla template is being retired and new website is a WordPress based site having address at http://newdomain.com/subfolder.

For some reason I get the following message: “This webpage has a redirect loop”, but whatever I try it doesn’t work. The new WordPress site has url-friendly links generated by wordpress. I tried to upload a default wordpress .htaccess but it doesn’t work either.

Can anyone point me in right direction how to solve this issue? Thank you in advance.

The old site was on a different server with the same domain name as the new one.

Current .htaccess file on a domains’ new server is as follows: 

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^newdomain.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^$ beta/ [L]

  1. You can use the following : 

    RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !newdomain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.newdomain.com/beta/$1 [L,R=301]
