Htaccess url redirect change asp to php and pass url params

it doesn't seem to work. The site was migrated from ASP to PHP and it moved servers to a non IIS server. so all the old links from Google point to the old asp pages. I want to redirect to the PHP versions, I made a place holder asp page to redirect but because the server is non IIS it just shows the html code. so I put the redirect info into the .htaccess and the only line working there is a ErrorDocument 404 redirect I have.

Here is the full file

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^TemplateID=([0-9]*)$
RewriteRule template\.asp?TemplateID=([0-9]*) redirect\.php\?aid=%1/? [R=301]
ErrorDocument 404 http://www.dentalcomfortzone.com/inthenews.php

so what I want is when someone goes to dentalcomfortzone.com//template.asp?TemplateID=88 I want them to get redirected to dentalcomfortzone.com/template.php?aid=88

try this for the last line:
RewriteRule template\.asp\?TemplateID=([0-9]*) redirect.php?aid=%1 [R=301]

also check  your log to see if one of the lines is considered broken.

> .. will the last 2 strings work?
no

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^TemplateID=([0-9]*)$
RewriteRule template\.asp template.php?aid=%1 [R=301]

If you want to have the query string also, you need to add the QSA flag.
Keep in mind that this rule matches template.asp anywhere in the path.
