URL Rewriting dont work with variables - php

Question

This is a rule in htaccess file :
RewriteRule ^Serie-examens-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)-([a-zA-Z]+)$ examens-list.php?idChapitre=$1&idTitre=$2 [L]
In href i've put this url :
href="<?php echo 'Serie-examens-'.$idChapitre.'-'.$idTitres[0].'-debuter');?>"
i've this error when i click in the link :
Not Found
The requested URL /SerieJava/Serie-examens-1-1-debuter was not found on this server.
I'm using wamp, and i test rewriting url without variables , it works
where is the error in the rule ?
The Full .htaccess file :
SetEnv REGISTER_GLOBALS 0
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>
Options -Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /SerieJava/
RewriteRule ^Le-premier-chapitre chapitre1.php [L]
RewriteRule ^Serie-examens-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)-([a-zA-Z]+)$ examenss-list.php?idChapitre=$1&idTitre=$2 [L]
thanks

Answer 1

You have a closing ) in the link php that should not be there:
href="<?php echo 'Serie-examens-'.$idChapitre.'-'.$idTitres[0].'-debuter');?>"
^ here
That probably leads to a php error that invalidates your link.
Edit: Also note that you are using this to rewrite:
RewriteRule ^Serie-examens-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)-([a-zA-Z]+)$ examens-list.php?idChapitre=$1&idTitre=$2 [L]
The ^ denotes the start so if your path is /SerieJava/Serie-examen.... it will not be rewritten because it starts with /SerieJava/.
You should post the whole .htaccess file to see if that is the problem but it looks like it is.

Answer 2

This should be your /SerieJava/.htaccess:
SetEnv REGISTER_GLOBALS 0
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>
Options -Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /SerieJava/
RewriteRule ^Le-premier-chapitre chapitre1.php [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^Serie-examens-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+) examens-list.php?idChapitre=$1&idTitre=$2 [L,QSA,NC]

Answer 3

Try adding a / to your rewrite rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /SerieJava
RewriteRule ^/Serie-examens-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)-([a-zA-Z]+)$ examens-list.php?idChapitre=$1&idTitre=$2 [L]
Notice the / after the ^ and before Serie
You may also try removing the carot from the rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /SerieJava/
RewriteRule Serie-examens-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)-([a-zA-Z]+)$ examens-list.php?idChapitre=$1&idTitre=$2 [L]
