IIS7 - URL Rewrite Module

Re: URL rewrite not redirecting when page names contain +

Hi Ruslany,

It seems I figured it out, I just used the console interface to enter mapping entries so it actually created the rewritemaps and now redirects properly. That was enough to properly redirect. So the plus sign was not an issue as you said. It is now just a matter of adding the old and new urls. thanks again for your help

Hi Ruslany,

thanks very much for your quick reply. Maybe my conditions were wrong, they were inspired from:

Are you sure that double escape is disabled? I have just tried this configuration with URL Rewrite 1.1 and everything worked as expected:

    <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
            <rules>
                <rule name="test" stopProcessing="true">
                    <match url="foo\+bar\.htm" />
                    <action type="Redirect" url="iisstart.htm" />
                </rule>
            </rules>
        </rewrite>
        <security>
            <requestFiltering allowDoubleEscaping="true" />
        </security>
    </system.webServer>

Hi,
I need to redirect old pages that are constructed with the "+" sign, e.g. my+page+name.aspx
I've enabled the double escape but it seems the URL rewrite does not work with this symbol. I've noted another post reporting the same issue with the symbol :

Is there any workaround?
thanks
