I Want to change this:

*https://<our server>/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/share/mapserv/mapfile.map&service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities*

To this:

*https://<our server>/wms?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities*

So I've enabled apache2 mod-rewrite and created a .htaccess file with the following rule as per Mapserver docs:

*RewriteEngine on**
**RewriteRule wms?(.*) /cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/share/mapserv/mapfile.map&$1**
*
I've also adapted this rule to numerous variations to try and get it working but to no avail.
The first link returns xml as expected.
The second link returns this error:

*mapserv(): Web application error. Traditional BROWSE mode requires a TEMPLATE in the WEB section, but none was provided.*

I've an error log running for the rewrite with an example trace as follows:

*


Am I correct in thinking that the redirect is not handling the GET params?

Which means my rule is wrong and is hence passing the wrong request string to mapserver thus causing the error?
