htaccess rewrite url folder/file to folder/file.php

Question

I want ajax/file address to be redirected to ajax/file.php using .htaccess. I created a .htaccess file like below but that gives a 500 Internal Server Error.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^ajax/(.*)$ ajax/$1.php [L]

An additional information is that my website is working under a sub-folder. (localhost/myproject) RewriteRule ^ajax/(.*)$ /ajax/$1.php [L] redirects url to (localhost/ajax/file.php) instead of (localhost/myproject/ajax/file.php

Problem is that .* in your regex also matches file.php.

Use your rule like this:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^ajax/([^./]+)/?$ ajax/$1.php [L]
