I have the following url which i want to write a helicon RewriteRule rule it should check the pattern startat=/mypage.asp and then only executeOriginal urlhttp://www.test.com/welcome.asp?tartat=/mypage.asp&value1=23&value2=3434&value3=1&value4=someothervaluethe new url http://www.test.com/mynewpage.hcx?startat=/mypage.asp&value1=23&value2=3434&value3=1&value4=someothervalue
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?
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.
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 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.
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?
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?
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.
I am running into an issue where I am trying to implement SEO friendly links in an ASP.Net 3.5 application with IIS6. The issue is that when I try to use a url like [URL] it isn't directed to the ASP.Net pipeline, so I am unable to route the request to the correct physical aspx file. With ISAPI_Rewrite I know I can redirect a request to the specific page, but is there a way to have a request sent to the ASP.Net pipeline, so I can manipulate the request using the built-in routing engine.
So I implement ISAPI_Rewrite on my site. Now i put on my pages a Response.Redirect But as it seems the redirect passes the ISAPI engine.. i.e. I see the new url but the rule doesnt apply.
for example i enter this: example.com/SomePage.aspx in SomePage.aspx.cs - PageLoad function theres: Response.Redirect("/Page"); So I get redirected to example.com/Page
But it says to me "This link appears to be broken"
on httpd.ini I have this rule RewriteRule ^/Page$ /Page.aspx [L]
My guess is that the Response.Redirect doesnt go through the ISAPI_Rewrite
Even to achieve the first link above, I need to replace capital letters and non-standard characters like é with e, and replace spaces with hyphens. Is all of this possible using URL Rewrite Module 2.0 or might I be better off coding some ASP? I'm new to .net and may have to do something in classic if I struggle. And I only just get by in ASP...
I've tried some of the tutorials on the official IIS website and have got through a simple rewrite wizard, but replacing characters seems more complicated, and I'm sure some of the tutorials have errors in them...
just like the title is. When users land on the second page, after clicking submit on first page, i want the second page to read the url, then modify the aspx page in the end and send the user to a specific page. e.g - www.abc.com/page1.aspx --> click submit --> redirect to www.abc.com/page2.aspx the code should read "/page2.aspx" and then rewrite it as "/page5.aspx" and automatically redirect to page5.aspx
I am using ASP.NET 2.0 on IIS6 therefore I can't use system.web.routing. I've tried a few URL rewriters but none did what I wanted.I basically need to transform (read/parse then redirect) URL 1 into 2 with minimum IIS configuration because I don't have the full authority to reconfigure web servers (i.e. ISAP on IIS6 or install 3rd party extensions/libraries). And I can't transform URL into 3 because all the physical links will break. [URL]
