.htaccess incorrect paths

We have setup WP on AWS using elastic beanstalk

The paths to the app files are as follows:

/var/app/current/<then all the wordpress files>

In the section where we update the .htaccess file – in my .htaccess the above path reflects as

RewriteCond //varappcurrentwp-content/cache/supercache/%{SERVER_NAME}/$1/index.html.gz -f
RewriteRule ^(.*) "/varappcurrentwp-content/cache/supercache/%{SERVER_NAME}/$1/index.html.gz" [L]

there is no forward slashes – surely there is supposed to be?!

At point 2 of the Notes on the advanced tab the path shows correctly

/var/app/current/wp-content

I’m assuming that I need to add those forward slashes – please confirm this

thanks
