Steps to reproduce the issue

I set up a redirect from site.com/index.php?blablabla to site.com/request
for this i used the reweite url feature from the menu system>config>site
so i enabled this feature and went to the system>manage>redirects menu and set up this redirect as described above.

more in Actual Result

Expected result

the expected result was to rewrite the url, in a sense, that i could type site.com/request in the browser and get shown site.com/index.php?blablabla

Actual result

the actual result is, this operation changed every link in my site to site.com/request but since the target url does not exist, it redirects me to a 404 page.

Further more, i did NOT disable this "redirect" which is more a rewrite for deat urls as i found out, i DIRECTLY DELETED this entry without disabling it first.

after this was showing no effect i deleted the Database Entry, hoping this would bring the end

guess what it did not...

so now this wasted my installation totally - everytime i reenable the url rewrite feature again the db entries spawn again and i have to delete them by hand.

there was no effect by deleting cache

No effect by deleting db entries

only effect - since this is the method i use is disabling url rewrite til today...

i dont know that to do to get rid of this absurd error, i dont know the file hierarchy that good, that i would have an idea where the textfile is where this problem lies....
but since i need the url rewrite feature for other stuff this is very disgusting...

System information (as much as possible)

Thanks for clarifying that. I am closing the issue for now, we can re-open it, if needed.
