  code-based 301 redirect in classic ASP Reply Contact On our 2003/IIS6 servers, the following code works fine. redirect_url = "/folder/page.html" Response.Status="301 Moved Permanently" Response.AddHeader "Location",redirect_url  However, on our new 2008/IIS7 server, we get rediected to the following .. assuming redirect_url could be any page (rewritten to mask page.asp?query=123&.. etc), which are dyamically created (based on location, page type, etc, so there's no 1-1 relationship between start URL and redirect URL, or at least far too many to manually map http://www.oursite.com/folder/page.html,/folder/page.html (redirect_url comma redirect_url) sometimes it'll even just do multiple ,/folder/page.html in the URL This takes the user to our 404 page. response.redirect redirect_url works, however that completely defeats the purpose of the 301 redirect. Has anyone managed to get code-level 301 redirects working under IIS7 w/ classic ASP? I've spent the last couple days searching google, and have come up empty so far.  Thanks

  Re: code-based 301 redirect in classic ASP Reply Contact When I first got access to the server, the app pools were a mix of classic and integrated, but I changed them all to classic, no managed code. Tried restarting IIS, rebooting the server, no change. One thing to mention (hopefully unrelated), we are running Isapi/Rewrite2 by Helicon (same setup as our IIS6 servers). All the rewrites work fine on their own. Issue just comes up when there's a 301 involved.

  Re: code-based 301 redirect in classic ASP Reply Contact It looks like we have a code-based solution. Looks like IIS7 isn't as lenient as IIS6 was on its redirection rules.  redirect_url = "/folder/page.html" Response.Status="301 Moved Permanently" Response.AddHeader "Location",redirect_url Response.end If we don't add the response.end, it seems IIS just keeps running the addheader over and over again. Going to spend a bit more time to see if we can find an IIS-based solution, rather than having to update the code (887 matches in 134 files... going to be a long day otherwise)
