    (Intelligencia.UrlRewriter) IIS7 not redirecting URL

    Reply Contact

    Hi,

    I'm using Intelligencia.UrlRewriter from UrlRewriter.Net 

    I've been developing my site on VS2008 Express.
    And everything works ok.

    I have recently installed IIS7 on my machine, to load as localhost, to ensure and test that everything is working before I publish the site.

    However, the URLRewriter no longer works when I publish as local. (It was previously working fine when I worked through VS2008.

    Web.Config:

    <rewrite url="~/Test1/(.+)" to="~/TestUrlRewrite.aspx?PageContentUrl=Test1/$1"></rewrite> 

    In VS2008:

    This works absolutely fine. 

    In IIS7.0 as localhost:

    "http://localhost/App/test1" --> the Requested URL becomes "/App/test1/rlRewrite.aspx"

    http://localhost/App/test1/asdf --> the Requested URL becomes "/App/test1/asdf/rite.aspx"

    http://localhost/App/test1/1234567890 --> the Requested URL becomes "/App/test1/1234567890/spx"

     

    Why is the webserver rewriting the URLs wrongly? (It's appending the last few letters of the target URL...)

    What is wrong here?

    Greatly appreciate if someone can help me.

    Thanks!

    Are you using Vista SP1 with the latest .NET framework 3.5 SP1? I remember seeing a similar problem when IIS 7 was used on Vista not SP1.

    Hi Ruslany,

    Thanks for the reminder.
    But YES, I've got 3.5 SP1 installed and running.

    It's really strange that IIS is appending the last few characters of the target URL into the "rewritten" url.

     The intelligencia urlrewriter still has several bugs. I believe I had that same issue you did...

    Try formatting your regex like so:

    <rewrite url="^~/Test/?(.*)$" to=".........." />

    The use of the ".+" is incorrect and should be a ".*"
    Also, adding the "?" allows your urls to work without the trailing "/"

    Hi dgdev,

    Thanks for the note.
    I did what you suggested, and it's still not working. 

    Here's my web.config:

        <system.webServer>       
            <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
                <remove name="ScriptModule"/>
                <add name="ScriptModule" preCondition="managedHandler" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptModule, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
                <add name="UrlRewriter" type="Intelligencia.UrlRewriter.RewriterHttpModule" />
            </modules>

            <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false"/>
           
            <handlers>
                <remove name="ScriptHandlerFactory"/>
                <remove name="ScriptHandlerFactoryAppServices"/>
                <remove name="ScriptResource"/>
                <remove name="WebServiceHandlerFactory-Integrated"/>
                <add name="ScriptHandlerFactory" verb="*" path="*.asmx" preCondition="integratedMode" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
                <add name="ScriptHandlerFactoryAppServices" verb="*" path="*_AppService.axd" preCondition="integratedMode" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
                <add name="ScriptResource" preCondition="integratedMode" verb="GET,HEAD" path="ScriptResource.axd" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptResourceHandler, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
               
                <add name="ASP.NET-ISAPI-2.0-Wildcard"
                   path="*" verb="GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG"
                   modules="IsapiModule"
                   scriptProcessor="%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll"
                   preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv2.0,bitness32" responseBufferLimit="0" />


            </handlers>
        </system.webServer>
       
        <rewriter>

            <rewrite url="^~/Test1/(.*)$" to="~/TestUrlRewrite.aspx?PageContentUrl=Test1/$1" processing="stop"></rewrite>
            <rewrite url="^~/Test1/$" to="~/TestUrlRewrite.aspx?PageContentUrl=Test1" processing="stop"></rewrite>
            <rewrite url="^~/AboutUs$" to="~/Pages/Default.aspx?PageContentUrl=AboutUs" processing="stop"></rewrite>

        </rewriter>

     

    The above rules all work when I'm working on VS2008. (e.g. http://localhost:2649/App).
    The rewrites are all ok and successful.

    However, when I use this through IIS7.0, using http://localhost/App... the problems are below.

     

    Problem. 

    The rewrite:
    http://localhost/App/test1/ --> Requested URL: /App/test1/lRewrite.aspx
    http://localhost/App/test1/1 --> Requested URL: /App/test1/1/Rewrite.aspx
    http://localhost/App/test1/12 --> Requested URL: /App/test1/12/ewrite.aspx
    http://localhost/App/test1/12345 --> Requested URL: /App/test1/12345/ite.aspx
     
     
    There is a pattern here:
    My target URL filename is : "TestUrlRewrite.aspx" (<- let this be called "TargetFileName").
    The server is rewriting the URL minus the length of the "source" URL, starting from "test1".
     
    For example,
    http://localhost/App/test1/12345 --> Requested URL: /App/test1/12345/ite.aspx
     
    Length of "test1/12345" is 11.
    The targetURL will be rewritten right(TargetFileName, len(TargetFileName) - 11) = "ite.aspx" where the first 11 characters ("TestUrlRewr") have been removed/truncated.
     
     
    HOWEVER
    If however, I exceed the length of TargetFileName, the URLRewriting works!
     
    http://localhost/App/test1/12345123123123123 --> The server brings me to the target page. :)
     
     
    Hope I'm making sense, and you're following my details.

    Hope you can help. :)

    I'm still looking into your problem as I've never had this happen:

    1. What's your IIS setup: Classic or Integrated?

    2. Have you modified any code the UrlRewriter?

    3. Your 2nd rewrite rule is redundant as the first one will always trigger, then processing stops.
    You might want to delete the second one as it's not needed and change the first one to:
    <rewrite url="^~/Test1/?(.*)$" to="~/TestUrlRewrite.aspx?PageContentUrl=Test1/$1" processing="stop" />

    I'm looking into more possibilities, but it definitely seems like it would either be a IIS issue or Rewriter bug.

    Also don't forget to add this rule at the top of all your others:

    <rewrite url="^(/.*(\.gif|\.png|\.jpg|\.ico|\.pdf|\.css|\.js|\.axd)(\?.*)?)$" to="$1" processing="stop" />

    After some debugging, I realized everything was pouring through my rewriter. So if you have 50 images on your page, its all going through Intelligencia's rewriter.

    This actually only helps it a little bit however. The rewriter still executes several functions for each file.

    The best solution would be to write a simple if statement that checks the url requested. If it's one of the file types listed above, then it won't call the rewrite() method.

    For intelligencia, this would be done before _rewriter.Rewrite(); is called in the RewriterHttpModule file.

    Hi dgdev,

    Here's my updated web.confg:<rewriter>
        <rewrite url="^(/.*(\.gif|\.png|\.jpg|\.ico|\.pdf|\.css|\.js|\.axd)(\?.*)?)$" to="$1" processing="stop" />
         <rewrite url="^~/Test1/?(.*)$" to="~/TestUrlRewrite.aspx?PageContentUrl=Test1/$1" processing="stop"></rewrite>
        <rewrite url="^~/AboutUs$" to="~/Pages/Default.aspx?PageContentUrl=AboutUs" processing="stop"></rewrite>
    </rewriter>    It’s still rewriting to the previous URLs: The rewrite:
    http://localhost/App/test1/ --> Requested URL: /App/test1/lRewrite.aspx
    http://localhost/App/test1/1 --> Requested URL: /App/test1/1/Rewrite.aspx
    http://localhost/App/test1/12 --> Requested URL: /App/test1/12/ewrite.aspx
    http://localhost/App/test1/12345 --> Requested URL: /App/test1/12345/ite.aspx
         Answering your questions: 1. What's your IIS setup: Classic or Integrated?·         Integrated.·         Would you recommend the Classic mode? 2. Have you modified any code the UrlRewriter? ·         No, I’ve not.

    Hi dgdev,

    I've changed my IIS mode from Integrated to Classic, and it works.

    I was hesitant in doing this, because I'm not sure the impact in classic mode to my ASP.NET 3.5 website and applications.

    Can you please advise what's the difference between Integrated and Classic mode?

    Thanks!
