I am not able to write rewriterule for this pattern

RewriteRule   ^/search/([^/]*)      /search?q=$1

when i try, it give following error: The requested resource (/search/shashi) is not available.

Means, the httpd is not able to rewrite the rule.

I don't know where i am wrong.

Please suggest.

My ideal setup would be to take a current clients site, upload a .htaccess with a regex inside, that would match the URI, and if it finds a certain file extension, it would use the same path, but with an altered domain. ie.
