</span>The configuration you have shown says "if the request is for /live/,<br>
ask the browser to instead request /live".<br>
<br>
The configuration you have not shown says "if the request is for /live,<br>
ask the browser to instead request /live/".<br>
<br>
You should not have both of those in the same configuration file, or<br>
you get a loop.<br>
<br>
The not-shown configuration is usually a very good idea if "/live"<br>
is to be served from the filesystem and corresponds to a directory.<br>
<br>
So: why do you want to remove the trailing slash, in the shown<br>
configuration?<br>
<br>
If you want /live to redirect to /live/, then you should configure thing<br>
such that /live/ does not redirect to /live.<br>
