For example when a user enters www.homeforhire.com they should be redirected to default.aspx (for operational reasons the user is then redirected to
www.homeforhire.com/home.aspx).
Instead an error is caught in the Rewrite module (which should not be activated). I am using an http module to perform URL rewriting.
It appears as if the default document setup is not working correctly, and the requested page ~/ is being sent to the Rewrite module, causing an error (which is then caught by my error handler and the user is redirected to the home page).
Entering www.homeforhire.com/default.aspx works correctly.
Can anyone tell me why the default document settings in the web.config do not appear to be working?
I have web services built with ASP.NET and ASP.NET clients consuming them. When consuming the webservices, how would I to force the clients to use https?
I don't want to force the whole site to use https by turning on require SSL in IIS.
Can I use the IIS7 URL rewrite module to re-route http requests to https?
http://mysite.com -> https://www.mysite.com OK http://www.mysite.com -> https://www.mysite.com NOT WORKING
I guess the condition is not being satisfied when I enter www.mysite.com in the browser, so there's no redirect and the page serves as HTTP instead of HTTPS.
I think I just need to modify the condition pattern, but I have almost nothing regex knowledge and I need this asap.
Is it at all possible to use IIS7's rewrite capability in web.config to strip a particular HTTP header from a client request?We have an application that makes an HTTP POST to our website, and apparently the request contains the HTTP Expect header. Previously this was not a problem, but we've switched hosts and now the site is returning HTTP error 417 Expectation failed. So the real solution is to fix the software so it doesn't send the Expect header, but that can't happen soon enough for the folks in charge, who'd like to come up with an immediate web-based fix.I've used ISAPI_Rewrite before and I've read that it can strip a header, and the new host claimed they had ISAPI installed... but that seems to have been a lie, as I cannot get it to work, and support's only response on the subject is "use IIS7 Rewrite instead."
I've run into a strange problem regarding default buttons in master pages and IIS7 rewrite module. All my content pages have default buttons set in the code-behind (on prerender), or they are in panels on the aspx page. This works fine on my local machine and on the production server. However, when I enable IIS7 URL Rewrite, the default button is always to the one in the master page.
Hello, I'm trying to implement URL rewriting for the first time. I must use URL Rewrite Module IIS7 per my hosting company. All of the examples I have found so far will rewrite a url such as:
www.domain.com/ShowProduct.aspx?ID=233&Title=Product-Title, to: www.domain.com/ShowProduct/ProductTitle/233. The common scenario between these examples is that the rewrite chops off the .aspx & special characters and shuffles the query string parameters around. I get how that all works. However, I had something a little different in mind and I'm not sure if it can be accomplished.
My urls currently look like this: www.domain.com/ShowProduct?ID=233, and I would like them to look like this: www.domain.com/ShowProduct/Product-Title. The way I would imagine this working is, during the rewrite, pass the ID to the db and return the Title for the new url. You see, I currently don't need to pass the Title as a query string parameter and I'd prefer to not show the ID at all. This would be ideal. Can this be accomplished? Or
will I have to add the Title as a query string param and show the ID in rewritten url?
I am using a project that rewrites URL. I am not familiar with this code, but it works fine on IIS 6 and with VS2010. Problem begins when I need to deploy into IIS7.5 server. Seems like the rewrite doesn't work and the page doesn't fount after rewriting page.

I am trying to use this web.config code, but then I could see this:
i redirect a page from http to https using http module begin request handler .i am calling webservice using ajax but it is saying webserice not defined .which otherwise works fineits work fine when rediect page in page_load instead .but i need to add function for https to http in every page. i still not know why ajax is not working when i use http module for redirect
I've used the UrlRewriting.Net module for a couple years now without any problems in Windows XP and Windows 2003. I just recently upgraded my home PC to Windows 7 and started developing a new website.The plan was to use .html extensions and rewrite them to their .aspx counterparts using the UrlRewriting.Net module. Everything works flawlessly in VWD 2008, but when I try running it through IIS7 it is a different story.
When I try to access a page via the .html rewrite I can no longer access Page.User; it keeps returning null. If I hit the page using it's .aspx extension, Page.User is correctly populated. I should also mention that I have a LoginView controller in my Master Page and it suffers from the same symptoms: When accessing via .html extension it shows the AnonyousTemplate; When using .aspx extension it properly shows the LoggedInTemplate. I'm guessing the two are related.
[Note: I've also tried extensionless URLs and they exhibit the same problem]
The only way I've gotten it to work is to switch the application pool to Classic, which then requires me to add an ASP.Net ddl handler for the .html extension [otherwise it is handled by the StaticFileHandler and comes up as a 404 error]. However, I'd like my web app to run properly for people without having to fiddle around with IIS.So I am left with several questions:Does anyone have ideas as to why Page.User always equals null for .html => .aspx rewritten pages?
Why does it work in VWD 2008, but not IIS7?
What changed from IIS6 => IIS7 that could have caused this?
[Note: I just tried a .aspx => .aspx rewrite and it did not exhibit the problem. Not really what I want, but thought I should mention it.]
I have a HTTP module that I have written that needs to access the session. I have done the following:Module is registered in web.config Module attaches my method call to the PostAcquireRequestState event The module implement IRequiresSessionState However, when my page doesn't have an extension (i.e. as when htp://www.mywebsite.com) the session is not available and my code fails. If the page does have an aspx extension then all is ok.

I'm probably going to use the URL rewrite module for IIS 7 eventually and I have a fairly straight forward question that I really can't find the answer to.
If you have a base case of:
http://yoururl.com/page.aspx?ID=7 You can obviously have it rewritten to: http://yoururl.com/page/7 or whatever you want.
My question is this: When using this module can you still use Request.Querystring["page"] on the rewritten querystring. How does the Request.URL stuff work. Does asp.net still provide the un-rewritten url or does it provide the rewritten one.
I would assume that your C#/asp.net code is completely unaffected by the url rewriting, as that's more or less the point, but I want to be crystal clear.
Secondary question: What is the best practice for how you should code a website when using the rewritten. Should you code links in the written style, or continue using querystrings?
as it uses the relative path the http module is unable to understand the path and throwing following error
The file '/Root/Pages/Master/Site.Master' does not exist.
error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.
The IIS URL Rewrite Module ships with 3 built-in functions:
* ToLower - returns the input string converted to lower case. * UrlEncode - returns the input string converted to URL-encoded format. This function can be used if the substitution URL in rewrite rule contains special characters (for example non-ASCII or URI-unsafe characters). * UrlDecode - decodes the URL-encoded input string. This function can be used to decode a condition input before matching it against a pattern.
The functions can be invoked by using the following syntax: {function_name:any_string}
The question is: can this list be extended by introducing a Replace function that's available for changing values within a rewrite rule action or condition?
Another way to frame the question: is there any way to do a global replace on a URL coming in using this module?
It seems that you're limited to using regular expressions and back-references to construct strings - i.e. there's no search/replace mechanism to replace every instance of X with Y in {REQUEST_URI}, without knowing how many instances there are.
I've had a quick glance at the extensibility introduced in the 2.0 RTW and don't see any 'light' means of introducing this.
I have a website hosted on IIS7 with the url rewrite module 2.0 installed. It is run by content management that looks at the url and returns a 401 error if the current user does not have permission to view the page. This gets picked up by the asp.net url authorization module which then kicks the page over to the loginUrl page as specified in the web.config (forms authentication).
This works perfectly on my local machine - which is IIS7 and windows7.
If the url is, say, /612/some-string the user gets directed to the login page at /66/login?ReturnUrl=/612/some-string
The url rewriting looks at the first part of the url for the document id. The real url would be this: index.aspx?documentId=612
Unfortunately, when I deployed this to our staging server, the ReturnUrl isn't the rewritten url, it's the original url. This causes all sorts of problems.
The staging server is also IIS7 with the url rewrite module 2.0 installed. It's Windows 2008 server SP2. Both are running asp.net 3.5.
My only guess is that the machine.config orders the default httpModules differently, and the .net forms authentication module is jumping in before the url has been rewritten.
I'll review that soon, but in the meantime has anyone experienced this problem and solved it?
Update
I also tried changing
Response.StatusCode = 401;
to
FormsAuthentication.RedirectToLoginPage();
Which gets me a bit ahead, but still directs the user back to the url that hasn't been rewritten.
Experimenting with URL rewrites using this module, however I'm getting the following error when attempting to hit the URL. Looked online for answers, but not sure what the best way to get around this is...
HTTP Error 500.52 - URL Rewrite Module Error. Outbound rewrite rules cannot be applied when the content of the HTTP response is encoded ("gzip"). IIS received the request; however, an internal error occurred during the processing of the request. The root cause of this error depends on which module handles the request and what was happening in the worker process when this error occurred. IIS was not able to access the web.config file for the Web site or application. This can occur if the NTFS permissions are set incorrectly. IIS was not able to process configuration for the Web site or application. The authenticated user does not have permission to use this DLL. The request is mapped to a managed handler but the .NET Extensibility Feature is not installed.
