Using .htaccess to route friendly url

Question

I am trying to route an url which is displayed as follows www.example.com/profile/1 to the following page with parameters www.example.com/profile?user=1. I have the following RewriteRule in my .htaccess, yet the routing is not working. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

RewriteEngineOn RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/profile/$1 [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule (.+) /profile?user=$1 [L,QSA]

I have tried switching up the last RewriteRule to different URL's, but so far no luck. I am probably overseeing a small problem which someone can hopefully help me out with.

You need to allow for profile/\w+ as regex pattern to match /profile/123:

Options -MultiViews RewriteEngineOn RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC] RewriteRule ^ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^profile/(\w+)/?$ /profile?user=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
