I have a problem doing a permanent redirect. It works only if I
directly send the new location header (third line in sample below) but
never in combination with sending a "301 Moved permanently" first
(second line below). Unfortunately my server is shielding error
messages from me (and I don't have access to the PHP.INI).
------- Sample -------
<?
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved permanently");
header("Location: http://www.example.com");
?>
----------------------
(Note: there is no space anywhere or anything else before I send the
header. Also: I cannot send the "Moved permanently" on its own either.
It always breaks my script, but I don't know why.)
What can I do? If I redirect without 301 I'm afraid Google won't change
it's index of my pages.
Any help greatly appreciated!

At the top of your script add:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', true);
?>

Maybe?
<?php

header('HTTP/1.1 302 http://www.example.com/'); // also try 307

You haven't said what problem you're actually having, other than it 'breaks
your script'. http://uk.php.net/header
What you're doing appears correct from the manual. There's also the
alternative of:
header("Location: http://www.example.com", false, 301);

Are you running php as an apache module, or as some type of CGI setup
where the web-server executes php.exe? If it's the latter, then you
can't change the HTTP response header as far ask I know. Only with the
apache module can that be accomplished.

That's part of my problem -- my server hides the error message, and I
can't turn it on.

Yes, I guess my server is somehow misconfigured.
header("Location: http://www.example.com", false, 301);
Thanks. That at least didn't cause an error. However the page now
appeared white, and no redirect could be seen in the browser. Also if I
set the second parameter to "true".

Yes. No spaces before or after. Complete sample above pasted into
text-editor, uploaded via FTP, and run via HTTP -- Error 500 (exact
error shielded by server).

I can use the header function to redirect, however I cannot send the
301 permanent move.

I guess you mean it does *not* work.
.... have you tried switching the header()s order?

Good idea. Will try.
Nope. Same 500 error.

Yea, what I was saying, is that in a CGI setup, doing a header to change
the http response will not work. Other headers will though.
header('HTTP ...'); type headers won't work unless you have the apache
module. It's noted in the manual.
Is the script dying after the first call to header()? Run this and see which
files get created:
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved permanently");
touch("after_first_header");
header("Location: http://www.example.com");
touch("after_second_header");
// perhaps track_errors is on?
fwrite(fopen("php_errormsg", "w"), $php_errormsg);
Also try changing the header to "HTTP/1.0".

Thanks for trying to help. The script idea doesn't work on my
misconfigured served which I don't have complete control over. The
"php_errormsg" was created, but empty. I'm now trying to figure out how
to solve this problem right within the htaccess file, and this is my
current try:
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)-([0-9]*).html show.php?title=$1&part=$2
And then someone suggested this but it doesn't quite work for me...
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^title=([a-z]+)&part=([0-9]+)
RewriteRule ^book.php$ %1-%2? [redirect=permanent]

Any chance you can get to your error log files? Also, have you tried
threatening bodily harm to your provider's employees unless they start
showing you your rightly-deserved error messages...
Who knows, it might work... might get you thrown in jail, tho'.

Adjust your browser settings to see no-friendly HTTP message or
just use some HTTP sniffers to see the all the responses. I guess, the
script dies somewhere. May be you could post the URL of the page?

It's the error message HTML of my host... not the browser-one... but
thanks to all I officially give up on solving this with PHP and instead
try to solve it via htaccess. In fact I offer $20 at Google Answers for
a solution:
