Regular expression to find last dot in request URI – Apache

I am trying to write a regular expression for apache virtual host configuration that will map request if URI doesn’t have certain extensions. Below expression I have written.

^/bookdata/.+.(?!jpg|mp3|mp4|zip|doc|pdf|xls|xlsx).*$

Below URI is not matching to this expression which is perfectly fine.

/bookdata/rw0/media/Q2e_00_RW_U08_Q_Classroom.mp3?fd=1

My problem with below URI which is matching with this expression due to two dots.

/bookdata/rw0/media/ELM2_U02_Track06_Chart2.8.mp3?fd=1

Any small help will be appreciated.

    Put the neg. lookahead right at the start, like so

    ^(?!.*.(?:jpg|mp3|mp4|zip|doc|pdf|xls|xlsx))/bookdata/.+$

    See a demo on regex101.com.

    As I know request URI doesn’t contain request params(after question mark)
    So you can ommit .* at the end of your regex then you can match your prefer uris.
    This happen because you say that your uri end by those extension must not match.
