I am trying to convert all my uppercase URL’s to lower case and add a redirect rule for it but its not working. here is what my use case is
https://www.example.com/CT 301 redirect to => https://www.example/test
https://www.example.com/cT 301 redirect to => https://www.example/test
https://www.example.com/ct 301 redirect to => https://www.example/test
I have been testing the below rule in https://htaccess.madewithlove.be/ and if I test the URL https://example.com/Ct with the rule the output URL is still https://example.com/Ct, it should have been https://example.com/ct. What I have noticed is it will convert Captial C into lower c but this rule RewriteRule [A-Z] - [N]
is coverting it back to https://example.com/Ct
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# If there are caps, set HASCAPS to true and skip next rule
RewriteRule [A-Z] - [E=HASCAPS:TRUE,S=1]
# Skip this entire section if no uppercase letters in requested URL
RewriteRule ![A-Z] - [S=28]
# Replace single occurance of CAP with cap, then process next Rule.
RewriteRule ^([^A]*)A(.*)$ $1a$2
RewriteRule ^([^B]*)B(.*)$ $1b$2
RewriteRule ^([^C]*)C(.*)$ $1c$2
RewriteRule ^([^D]*)D(.*)$ $1d$2
RewriteRule ^([^E]*)E(.*)$ $1e$2

RewriteRule ^([^N]*)N(.*)$ $1n$2
RewriteRule ^([^O]*)O(.*)$ $1o$2
RewriteRule ^([^P]*)P(.*)$ $1p$2
RewriteRule ^([^Q]*)Q(.*)$ $1q$2
RewriteRule ^([^R]*)R(.*)$ $1r$2
RewriteRule ^([^S]*)S(.*)$ $1s$2
RewriteRule ^([^T]*)T(.*)$ $1t$2
RewriteRule ^([^U]*)U(.*)$ $1u$2
RewriteRule ^([^V]*)V(.*)$ $1v$2
RewriteRule ^([^W]*)W(.*)$ $1w$2
RewriteRule ^([^X]*)X(.*)$ $1x$2
RewriteRule ^([^Y]*)Y(.*)$ $1y$2
RewriteRule ^([^Z]*)Z(.*)$ $1z$2
# If there are any uppercase letters, restart at very first RewriteRule in file.
RewriteRule [A-Z] - [N]
# If a conversion has occurred then issue an external redirect
RewriteCond %{ENV:HASCAPS} TRUE
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) /$1 [N]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^((?:www.)?example.com)$ [NC]
RedirectMatch 301 ^/ct$ https://www.example/test
</IfModule>
Any help is appreciated on identyfying what is wrong with this rule.

Use RewriteMap https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/rewritemap.html#int
The docs provide this example for lower-casing the URL
Redirect a URI to an all-lowercase version of itself
If either of
/CT
,/cT
,/Ct
,/ct
has to redirected to/test/
then it can done in a simple rule like this withNC
flag:
