Redirecting url with .htaccess

Question

I'm trying to redirect http://example.com/forum/index.php to http://example.com/forum/ and it will not work. Here's the code I'm using in my .htaccess. What am I doing wrong?

Redirect forum/index.php http://example.com/forum

I've also tried without the forum/ part too.

can you give the full contents of your .htaccess? Where in your path is this .htaccess file living? — Chris Montanaro, Feb 03 '14 at 16:15
I'm on my own Apache server and the only thing that's in my .htaccess is that. The .htaccess file is located in my htdocs file. — ErraticFox, Feb 03 '14 at 16:17

Try adding a / before forum:

Redirect /forum/index.php http://example.com/forum/
