I used to have my homepage as index.html, not it's index.php. Since I have many internal and external links pointing to the html version, I need to do a 301 redirect. It's not working. Here is what I have in my .htaccess file:

redirect 301 mysite.com/index.html http://www.mysite.com/index.php

so they way I understand it, everytime it tried to find the index.html it should direct to the new php page.

Any reason why this isn't working?

Try...

redirect 301 /index.html http://www.mysite.com/index.php
