RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(.*)        /appname/login.jsp?a=$1

should be your solution.

  • This didn't work for me. I created a directory called "appname" off the root of my site and then tried your rule with http://localhost/appname but all it does is show me the contents of the "appname" directory. The rule doesn't fire. – djangofan Apr 27 '11 at 17:47
  • This doesn't answer my question since it doesnt cover the case if someone entered /appname/xxxx as the URI. in that case i would still only want to pass "appname". – djangofan Apr 27 '11 at 18:05
  • @djangofan well that requirement wasn't in your question. We're not mind readers. And yes, @Stefan's solution is correct. There may be something wrong with how you're testing it, though. – EEAA Apr 28 '11 at 03:23
