  IIS 7.0 HTTP redirect is working fine in a case of URL but not to a file or a directory Reply Contact I have a situation I need to redirect a vdir to another file or directory Once I redirect the vdir to http url that seems to be working fine, but the redirection to file or directory is not working. Is there a components or something that is missing ?   Working scenario appcmd.exe set config "Default Web Site/test3" -sect ion:system.webServer/httpRedirect /enabled:true /destination:"http://www.yahoo.c om"      Not working  appcmd.exe set config "Default Web Site/test3" -sect ion:system.webServer/httpRedirect /enabled:true /destination:"c:\sales\prod.txt "

  Re: IIS 7.0 HTTP redirect is working fine in a case of URL but not to a file or a directory Reply Contact You shouldn't have an absolute path.  C:\sales\prod.txt is like a file server path.  Try /sales/prod.txt and see if it displays.

You need a valid URL path which can be requested by client as destination for redirect to work. Thanks, Kj
