Why is Redirect 301 not working?

Question

PHP

Can you please tell me how to correctly write Redirect 301 in Apache .htaccess file?
I tried to do like this:
Redirect 301 ^index\.php$ localhost/site/new.php.
It doesn't work in this format, or I wrote it wrong.

Answer 1

try like this -

Redirect 301 /index.php http://localhost/site/new.php
