URL Rewrite 2.0 beta successfully converted Apache rewrite rule except one RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l Is this a known bug or a workaround available
The URL rewrite does not convert that by design as there is no equivalent functionality in URL Rewrite. "-l" flag in
Apache means "Treats the
TestString as a pathname and tests whether or not it exists, and is a symbolic link."
If your web application does not use symbolic links (which I am almost certain it does not), then you can safely remove this condition from the mod_rewrite rules and then try to re-import.
