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 want to create a method with optional parameters in my wcf service. I am doing it like this

When I try to use it in my client application and try to pass the values only for first two parameters it gives me an error that"Argument not sepecified for parameter Status"
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.
I have a controller method that is called with many different combinations of URL's. To overcome issue i am using optional parameters.here is my controller method signature...public ActionResult localMembersSearch(string Gender, string calling, [Optional]string Region, [Optional]string County, [Optional]string Town, [Optional]string queryvalues)the first two parameters are not optional but always expect
I want to add optional parameters in my routing table.For example I would like the users to browse a product catalog like this:http://www.domain.com/browse/by-category/electronics/1,2,3 etc
I've already implemented URL routing in my app but there are cases where I may or may not get a paramter. In particular, I'm trying to come up with a good way to handle multi-language support. For example, if my regular URL is /SomeCategory/Friendly-Topic-URL, I want to have an optional language selector at the end but I'd like to be optional. So, if I get /SomeCategory/Friendly-Topic-URL/es, that should bring up the topic in Spanish but if get nothing, that should bring up English.
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."
In 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.
here is my web.config that is placed in the root directory (generated by the IIS7 Remote Administration UI)
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'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.
I'm trying to implement a search function on an incident logging page that is working fine. Currently I am only able to search against one criteria at a time, using the following route:
Basically, my question is: how do I specify optional parameters to a WebMethod when providing JSON data?
I know I can reduce the parameters down to just the required values, and then use HttpContext.Request.Params to read the values of optional paramaters, but I would have thought the way I have tried here should have worked.
EDIT
The XMLHttpRequest.responseText value for the error is:
Invalid JSON primitive: staffcode.
This is throwing me even more off the scent of the problem :(
I have a GridView bound to an DataSource query with parameters tied to form controls.What is the standard / best-practices way to handle optional query parameters?
I 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:
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.
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?
I'm creating a webpage with serveral web controls to set search parameters for querying an SQL table. My plan is to use a TableAdapter to hold the query. If the user decides not to use one, several, or any of the web controls to filter their search, I want the SELECT to execute without complaining that it doesn't have parameter values. Should my SQL query look like
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 a data grid with a lot of information on it - to easily filter the data, I would like to be able to pass parameters to it. My problem is that I do not want the parameters to be required. So if I just put 1 or 2 of them in the query string, I would like for it to return all of the data related to those two parameters.I am using a data grid & stored procedures:My Stored Procedure looks like this:
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.
