Hi Ataks,

Please open %SystemRoot%\System32\inetsrv\config\administration.config (the UI configuration file) and look for Rewrite. There should be two entries, one under <moduleProviders>element and the another one under <modules>. Something like:

Please also verify that %SystemRoot%\System32\inetsrv\config\schema\rewrite_schema.xml exists.

Thanks a lot.

Dear Daniel,
Thank you for replay. I check files and both of them exist and have the same thing you reply me (at the end of <moduleProviders> and <location path="."><modules> with extra one tab). I restart my OS and restart IIS admin from services but problem didn't solve.

Thank you

Hi,

In IIS 7.0 there is no need to restart either Vista or any IIS service. The setup installs two components, the runtime and the UI.

The runtime is the file %SystemRoot%\system32\inetsrv\rewrite.dll; please verify it is there. It also installs the IIS schema file rewrite_schema.xml and register the rewrite configuration section in applicationHost.config.

The UI are two managed assemblies that we deploy in the GAC and then we register in administration.config. You already verified that the module is registered. Please verify that the following assemblies exist in the GAC %SystemRoot%\assembly

Microsoft.Web.Management.Rewrite
Microsoft.Web.Management.Rewrite.Client

Thanks again.

Daniel.

Dear Daniel,

- rewrite_schema.xml is in Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\schema
- rewrite.dll is in Windows\system32\inetsrv\
- rewrite configuration is section in applicationHost.config
- Microsoft.Web.Management.Rewrite and Microsoft.Web.Management.Rewrite.Client is in Windows\assembly

everythings seems ok, but I didn't see rewrite icon in area.

I uninstalled the rewrite and setup it again by msiexec /I . When I opened the IIS website, IIS show an error in applicationHost.config in rewrite section. I found empty <rewrite></rewrite>, I remove it and error solve and setup rewrite again. but problem didn't solve.

Thank you

Hi Ataks,

Everythink look fine, there is no special setup magic here. I want to repro this issue in our lab, Could you send me an email with the following files attached?

applicationHost.config
administration.config
rewrite_schema.config
Please open InetMgr.exe, browse to your Web Site and send me a screenshoot (save it as .PNG).

Thanks.

Hi Ata,

Your applicationHost.config file tells me that you don't have Vista SP1 installed. If that is true, Could you check your Event Viewer (eventvwr.exe) and let me know if is there any error from "IIS Manager"?

The runtime should work fine, but you would need to use another editor to create your rules (AppCmd/Notepad)

Thank you and sorry about this issue.

Hi Ata,

The UI module requires Vista SP1.The runtime shouldn’t have any dependency on Vista SP1, so you should be able to drop a web.config file with rewrite rules and it should work.

The URL Rewrite Module Technical Preview 1 Setup didn't have a check to require Vista SP1, I just fixed this.

Please open Windows Update (wuapp.exe) and click the “Check for Updates” button, the Vista SP1 should be available as an update.

Sorry about this inconvenience.
