Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^dubey.php?pid=([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)$ alok/ranjan/dubey.php?pid=$1

I believe that there is a problem in the regex... it should be

^dubey.php?pid=([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)$ alok/ranjan/dubey.php?pid=$1

you forgot to escape the '-' sign which is a special char in regex.

i am using this website for rewriting

shortest version:)

RewriteRule ^dubey.php?pid=([0-9]+)$ alok/rajan/dubey.php?pid=$1
