htaccess: Missing first Trailing Slash in redirect Url

Question

We have create a new website for my company and we decide to keep the old one and make it redirects all content and pages to similar content pages to the new website.

I have create an htaccess file to replace the old file at the old website.

This htaccess file contains the following lines: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On Redirect 301 / http://newsite.com Redirect 301 /contact http://newsite.com/contact/ Redirect 301 /category/products http://newsite.com/shop/ Redirect 301 /category/tools/makita http://newsite.com/shop/makita/ Redirect 301 /products/new-products http://newsite.com/shop/whats-new/ ....etc... </IfModule>

Now the problem is that (except the home page that worksfine) all other pages redirects but missing the first trailing slash after the domain name. For example: oldsite.com/category/tools/makita ===> newsite.comcategory/tools/makita

What can i do to resolve this? I forgot to mention that both websites are in Wordpress CMS on Apache Server (php 5.6 and FastCgi Module)

Thanks in Advance!

P.S.: English isn’t my first language, so please excuse any mistakes

Sorry for the late response, but I think you want to add a trailing slash to the first url
