So – I’m the administrator of a Java application which has a URL similar to the following: https://test.thing.seabass.com/q3/app?service=external/EmployerPages:DudeLogin<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__test.thing.seabass.com_q3_app-3Fservice-3Dexternal_EmployerPages-3ADudeLogin&d=DwMFAg&c=yHlS04HhBraes5BQ9ueu5zKhE7rtNXt_d012z2PA6ws&r=tdje61_VHSXp608oLofeaJnnzo2Sr9_Cdcp70bBEtQ8&m=8Aa0zSVZtRpfqY8GcJh8QpGhRovF06tJz2sdyg3qDBA&s=E90MAqULoeK9c3dlUcLIvkoON2H1WDhEuLZJCAi_af4&e=> Can’t have them change it, and there’s no way to simplify. I’d like to redirect the URL above to: https://test.thing.seabass.com<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__test.thing.seabass.com&d=DwMFAg&c=yHlS04HhBraes5BQ9ueu5zKhE7rtNXt_d012z2PA6ws&r=tdje61_VHSXp608oLofeaJnnzo2Sr9_Cdcp70bBEtQ8&m=8Aa0zSVZtRpfqY8GcJh8QpGhRovF06tJz2sdyg3qDBA&s=YE0EfcL6c9RzsWFOiHk_bnk_8UAj7Eq_M1R12hE7d-o&e=> I’ve tried a few rewrite rules by trial and error, unsuccessfully. I also attempted to use generators such as http://www.visiospark.com/mod-rewrite-rule-generator/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.visiospark.com_mod-2Drewrite-2Drule-2Dgenerator_&d=DwMFAg&c=yHlS04HhBraes5BQ9ueu5zKhE7rtNXt_d012z2PA6ws&r=tdje61_VHSXp608oLofeaJnnzo2Sr9_Cdcp70bBEtQ8&m=8Aa0zSVZtRpfqY8GcJh8QpGhRovF06tJz2sdyg3qDBA&s=ht6zFOeSwSKLAEhCogBxpjT2_o7CxT-Kfkgk-1NXPdM&e=> and https://www.generateit.net/mod-rewrite/index.php<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.generateit.net_mod-2Drewrite_index.php&d=DwMFAg&c=yHlS04HhBraes5BQ9ueu5zKhE7rtNXt_d012z2PA6ws&r=tdje61_VHSXp608oLofeaJnnzo2Sr9_Cdcp70bBEtQ8&m=8Aa0zSVZtRpfqY8GcJh8QpGhRovF06tJz2sdyg3qDBA&s=ol9qMynnkaqgD5sQk2NQ-S_GDT1g3eM9yQvTXcNMMUo&e=>.
