I'm experimenting with setting a 301 'Moved Permanently" header for a large reorganization of our site.
My first experiment was with using .htaccess with the following line in it: redirect 301 /301_old.html http://dprweb:2222/301_new.html This immediately caused my entire website to crash and return a 500 error. My second experiment was with using some ColdFusion code: <cfheader statuscode="301" statustext="Moved permanently"> <cfheader name="Location" value="http://dprweb:2222/301_new.html"> This seemed to work on the surface, as when I put the 301_old.cfm URL in a browser I ended up on the 301_new.html page. But looking at the actual HTTP requests and responses I seem to be getting a 301 Found status instead of a 301 Moved Permanently. Is this expected? My understanding of what I have read indicates otherwise. HTTP/1.x 302 Found Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2007 20:34:30 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) ApacheJServ/1.1.2 Location: http://dprweb:2222/301_new.html Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100 Connection: Keep-Alive Transfer-Encoding: chunked Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Anyone out there experienced in configuring and using 301 redirects help me with the ins and outs.
