is this something basic or am I missing something?My ASP.NET (4.0) site has a web.config with URL rewrite rules. When I run it in debug mode (local webserver) all the URLs fail because the local web server does not recognize the rules (e.g. I have /register which maps to register.aspx etc.)Is there someway I can get the debug system to recognize my URL rewrite rules? Should I be doing something else?
View 2 RepliesI am running Visual Studio 2010 (as Admin), IIS 7 on Windows 7 x64. I am able to run the ASP.NET web site in IIS 7 without debugging just fine, but when I press F5 to debug it, I get: Unable to start debugging on the web server. Could not start ASP.NET debugging. More information may be available by starting the project without debugging. Unfortunately the help link is not helping me much and leads down a heck of a large tree of things. I checked the following:
Security requirements — I don't recall having to do anything special before. The worker process in IIS7 is w3wp.exe. It says that if it's running as ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICE I must have Administrator privileges to debug it. How do I find out if I need to change something here? Web site Property Pages > Start Options > Debuggers > ASP.NET is checked. Use custom server is set to the URL of the site (which works fine without debugging). Debugging is enabled in web.config. Application is using ASP.NET 3.5 (I want to move to 4.0 eventually but I have some migration to deal with). Application pool: Classing .NET AppPool (also tried DefaultAppPool). Surely it shouldn't be that hard to install IIS, VS, create a web site, and start testing it?
If application is started without debugging - it runs smoothly, when I press F5 I get: "Unable to start debugging on the web server. Could not start ASP.NET debugging. More information may be available by starting the project without debugging. Click Help for more information"I noticed that problems are caused by URL Rewrite section in web.config:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<clear />
<rule name="LowerCaseRule" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="[A-Z]" ignoreCase="false" />
when I comment it out - I can start debugging. Also debugging works on VS's built-in web server.I'm running Win7 64 bit, VS 2010, application's framework is 4.0, in IIS application has ASP.NET 4.0 Intergrated pool set
I'm trying to debug my web application on my localhost machine in Visual Studio 2010 and I keep getting this error: "unable to start debugging on web server. The Microsoft Visual Studio remote debugging monitor(MSVSMON.exe) does not appear to be running on the remote computer."
Is there a way I can turn this off as I'm not trying to make any attempts debugging remotely.
Is it possible to use iis7 url rewrite module for html pages?
Like this:
http://www.site.com/index.html?x=newfolder =>
http://www.site.com/newfolder
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.
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."
View 2 RepliesIn my local enviroment it just works. Iam no IIS Admin so ....
i try the following
My domain "http://mysite.com/" goes to my url provided by my hosting service (discountasp.net)
I want that this url goes to the root/mysite/ virtual directory but i want that the url stays on "http://mysite.com/". So i defined the following rule, but it doesnt work for me.

I'm using the iis7 URL Rewrite module and it's working fine, except for two things. Being new to this, I might be missing something obvious.
1) My URL gets converted from www.mysite.com/search.aspx?fName=John&sName=Smith to www.mysite.com/John/Smith. This works fine, but if I add a trailing / , a few images on the site disappear, wheras a few don't. (They're all in the same location). However, the search results are fine.
2) Is it possible to make cerain querystrings optional? Server side, this is implemented (i.e. if nothing is entered, then assume a default value). But how would this work with the URL rewrite module? e.g. www.mysite.com/John would search for John and use a default value for the sName parameter.
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'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.
protected void LoginButton_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Button btnDefault = sender as Button;
this.Page.Form.DefaultButton = btnDefault.UniqueID;
}
That's how I set my default button in the code-behind. I'm not sure what the rewrite module could be doing.
I have doubt in debug, What will be modified in web.config and cause any loss in data? As I am using without debugging till now.
View 1 RepliesI have a domain which is receiving quite a few hits per day and have been asked if I can serve the static content from a subdomain. As the site is quite extensive and already written, I was wondering if there is any way I can use URL rewriting to change:
www.example.com/image.gif
to
static.example.com/image.gif
I have a solution which works using 301 redirects but from what I understand, this is counter productive as 2 requests will have to be made per image. I don't really want to go through all the aspx pages and css to hard code the new url as it will cause problems further down the line - some parts of the site are still being developed and static content could change at any time. I tried using rewrite (as opposed to redirect) to change the url but it came out something like:
http://www.example.com/http://static.example.com/image.gif
How would you achieve this? I have full access to dns and the server (win 2008r2 / IIS 7.5) so can make any changes if url rewriting is not the answer.
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?
I have the following setting in my web.config to redirect to a default page:
<defaultDocument>
<files>
<clear/>
<add value="default.aspx"/>
</files>
</defaultDocument>
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 need to force every request to https://www.mysite.com (always with https and www)
The site is hosted in GoDaddy and I need to do it via IIS7 URL Rewrite Module.
I've been able to do the HTTPS redirect with the following code:
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Canonical Host Name" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^mysite.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.mysite.com/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
Test cases
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.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to consume a WSE enabled Web Service from an ASP.NET Web Site.I've installed WSE 3.0, used the config tool to add WSE info to my web.config and then done an Add Web Reference.I believe that the problem may be that this is a Web SITE, not a Web APPLICATION. As such, the proxy class is generated at runtime, perhaps not adding the WSE magic.I can access the proxy class from metadata, and it's of typeSystem.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol, which as far as I can tell doesn't have any WSE functionality.I realize that this is all old technology, but I don't get to decide what the servers run :(
View 1 RepliesI am using url rewriting rules in my web.config and have it working but today I added a rule in a folder but my primary rule keeps overriding.
Web.config
Code:
<rewriter>
<rewrite url="~/folder/*_a_(.+).aspx" to="~/folder/index.aspx?id=$1" />
<rewrite url="~/*_a_(.+).aspx" to="~/listing.aspx?id=$1"/>
</rewriter>
Usage:
www.domain.com/topic_a_1.aspx -> This would load listing.aspx?id=1 which is great.
www.domain.com/folder/newtopc_a_2.aspx -> This is also loading listing.aspx?id=2 but should be loading index.aspx?id=2
I believe I need to change the second rule from *_a_... to something like [^/]_a_.... but that doesn't work.
What I can do so the second rule doesn't override my sub folder rules?
I have a problem. I just enabled ssl on a web site, the technologies used is DotNetNuke, Asp.net, Window Server 2003, and IIS 6. I installed a certificate that was copied on the server through an email, and basically just clicked on the certificate and chose all the defaults.
I set up the certificate by goiong into the web site's properties -> Directory Security -> Server Certificate and choosing the option "Assign existing certificate" and I keep port 443 as the ssl port for the web site.
When i try to access the web site by entering the url [URL]
it shows "Internet Explorer Cannot display the web page" when I diagnose the problem, it says "The host may be down or it may not support a secure connection." I know the site is working by entering in the regular [URL]
Google Chrome gives a bit more information, it displays "Error 107 (net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR): Unknown error."
Mozilla displays "The connection to somesite was interrupted while the page was loading."

I upgrade to VWD2010, installed the Ajax ToolKit.
All of the Ajax videos indicate in VWD2010, I'll get a template called AJAX Enabled Web site. I don't have this template in my VWD2010. Is there a way to get the AJAX Enabled Web Site Template in VWD2010?
I have several controls on a page that I want to bind the enabled property to a couple of properties in code behind that are set on Page_Load. Here's an example of what I'm using to bind to the properties.
Code:
<telerik:RadComboBox ID="AssignToRadComboBox"
runat="server"
[code]...
This works fine once the page is posted back for the first 4 controls on the page.Here's the 1st control that doesn't get disabled like I expect it to. The expression is the same in the Enabled property so I'm not sure why it isn't working.
Code:
<telerik:RadComboBox ID="CategoryRadComboBox"
runat="server"
Skin="Web20"
Width="225px"
Enabled='<%# IsAdmin && !IsCompleted %>' />
I've got 2 problems with this approach:
1. I need it to happen the first time the page is loaded rather than after a postback.
2. I need it to work for all of the controls on the page having the expression.
It's too late in the development process to rewrite the page so I can't use jQuery & knockoutjs for example to do this all on the client side.
I'm working on a CMS that can run either with or without https enabled on the webserver. I'd like to be able to detect whether https is enabled or not, so that I can act accordingly (for example, display some https-related options to the administrator, and redirect to https for administrator logins).
I'm not looking for Request.IsSecureConnection because that only tells me if the current request is via https. I want something that will tell me whether the current bindings for the site in IIS include a binding for https at the same domain as the current request is on. So, for example, even if the current request is for [URL] and thus not secure, I want to know whether [URL] would work so I can (for example) redirect the user to it if they log in as administrator.
I've had no luck looking for anything in System.Web.Configuration that will tell me about the bindings of the current site, though.
How do I get InstelliSense enabled for the ASP.NET AJAX Library? I cant seem to get intellisense for the MS AJAX Library enabled in VS 2010.
