Failed to redirect URL containing% 00

How you deal with this really depends on what other "characters and numbers" you mean and where in the url it happens.

Since the pattern RewriteRule

matches the url encoded% and %00

is NULL, then to catch %00

in the url path you can try to match with THE_REQUEST

which contains the original first query string (which is not% decoded).

www.example.com/asdnsadnas%00

redirect to another url.

For example, try the following at the top of your root file .htaccess

:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /asdnsadnas%00\ HTTP
RewriteRule ^asdnsadnas /another-url [R,L]

      

        
        
        
      

    

The template RewriteRule

just checks the first part of the url, up to %00

.

If you just wanted to redirect /asdnsadnas

and just ignore whatever follows that url, you don't need to check explicitly %00

, so you can remove the directive RewriteCond

.

www.example.com.nz/XYZABC%00

need to redirect to www.example.com.nz/insurance-hub-page/xsserror/ XYZABC

- any letter or characters, etc, but I need some url at the end to %00

need to redirect to another url.

(I'm guessing the space in the target url is just a typo?)

In this case, you don't need to match %00

(the "character" you don't need). Just list the specific characters you want to match (which will probably be a smaller subset).

For example, the following will redirect /XYZABC

to /insurance-hub-page/xsserror/XYZABC

. The rear is %00

ignored.

RewriteRule ^(\w+) /insurance-hub-page/xsserror/$1 [R,L]

      

        
        
        
      

    

... but I need any url at the end %00

to redirect to another url.

Not sure what you mean by that?

if the url contains any special characters or characters, etc., you need to redirect to another url. Example:www.example.com/%28dsajkd%20nkasd%20daskdasj%00

You can simply check if the requested url contains any% -encoded characters that seem to match your example:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} %
RewriteRule ^ /another-url [R,L]
