I am new to IIS URL Rewrite rule Regex and looking for help here.
This is a sitecore web site which is built in ASP.NET MVC. I have a one domain i.e. www.xyz.com get merged with the another domain i.e. www.abc.com . I have the 1 to 1 mapping of both www.xyz.com/test -> www.abc.com/test1 . ALl the internal pages of www.xyz.com/xx will be mapped with the www.abc.com/foo except Homepage of www.xyz.com
I am currently stuck at how can i,
1) Redirect www.xyz.com/ homepage to a third party URL?
2) At the same time keep the 1-1 mapping of www.xyz.com/internal pages with www.abc.com/internal pages
I am using IIS URL Rewrite rule to do a domain redirect of www.xyz.com to www.abc.com and looking for additional help with the homepage redirect with a third party page
Thanks in Advance!
you just need two different redirect rules, the first rule will check for the root domain and redirect to third party url and the second rule will check for internal pages and redirect to internal pages on the new domain
it will look something like this
<rule name="redirect root to third party" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^$" ignoreCase="true" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="(www.)?xyz\.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Permanent" url="<third party url here>" />
</rule>
<rule name="redirect to new domain" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="/(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^(www.)?xyz\.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://<new domain>/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
P.S: in the second rule, please check for / -- i have not tested the rule myself there could be an extra slash introduced in the destination url or a slash removed, whatever it is you will be able to fix it. The main point here is you need two separate rules one for checking the exact domain with nothing after it and redirecting to third party and another rule for sub page redirects
My site was http://tebim.ir .
I decided to create a new domain and move my site there without loosing my google ranking. Google change address tool told me to do 301 redirect to my new domain and I did so.
Now redirect works fine but my url parameters(query strings) are not sent with redirect.
for example browsing www.old-domain.com/view.aspx?id=5047 redirects to www.new-domain.com/view.aspx.
?id=5047 is removed.
** I redirected my site using WebSitePanel CPanel. here is the picture of the redirect form:
what is wrong? thank you.
you need to use the URl Rewrite
<rule name="behdoctor" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="tebim.ir$" />
<conditions>
<add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern="Id=5047" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.newdomain.com" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>

We have a requirement where we need to redirect the old domain to specific page in new domain.
e.g.
GIVEN I navigate to http://old.domain.com
THEN I should be redirected to http://new.domain.com/apple
GIVEN I navigate to http://veryold.domain.com
THEN I should be redirected to http://new.domain.com/apple
I had a look at link below which suggest it's not possible with DNS redirect:
Using DNS to redirect to another URL with a path
I'm not really good on IIS Rewrite rules.
Can someone please help?
I've started with below which doesn't seem to be working well:
<rule name="Redirect old domain to new domain page" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^old.domain.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://new.domain.com/apple" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
I recently got a SSL certificate for my website and want to redirect all traffic to HTTPS. I got everything to go to https://mydomain.com but if someone enters http://mydomain.com/anotherpage it drops the other page and just takes the user to the home page.
My rule in my web.config file looks like this:
<rule name="HTTP to HTTPS redirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" ignoreCase="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Found" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" />
</rule>
I also tried https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI} without any success. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make the website redirect to the proper HTTPS version of the page? I have a feeling it has something to do with the pattern, but I can't seem to figure out the syntax.
I found a way to do this, and you don't need the Rewrite module for it. The following worked for me on Windows 8 (IIS 8.5):
Remove the HTTP binding from your site (leave HTTPS in place)
Add another site
Make sure that the new site has HTTP binding
Configure HTTP Redirect as shown:
Now all HTTP request will redirect to your HTTPS site and will preserve the rest of the URL.
Change it to:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
I had the same problem where the R:1 was dropping my folders.
I fixed it like this.
<rule name="http to https" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}"
appendQueryString="false" redirectType="SeeOther" />
</rule>
I can't comment yet or I'd leave this as a comment under AndyH's answer. The solution was correct, though I hit a single further snag (likely tied to the use of Adobe's Coldfusion server). I wanted to share some further research I had to do for any other unfortunate soul who may run into it.
Once set up, the redirect would always end at this url:
https://xxx.xxx.com/jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll
The fix for this was found in an Adobe thread (https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1034854): I had to change an application pool's settings as follows:
Real site (HTTPS binding only, actually contains code and virtual directories)
Application pool's Advanced Settings: Enable 32-Bit Applications : False
Http_Redirect site (HTTP binding only, is a blank shell of a folder with no directories)
Application pool's Advanced Settings: Enable 32-Bit Applications : True
EDIT: Another detail, tied to query string preservation:
Per suggestion in this post (http://www.developerfusion.com/code/4678/permanent-301-redirect-with-querystring-in-iis/)
Add $S$Q at the end of the domain and make sure the box for Redirect all requests to exact destination is checked. Then it will save the query string as well.
I believe AndyH's answer to be the easiest and best way. I have found using the URL rewrite can also conflict with code that may redirect the user to another page. IT commonly broke in our environment. But Andy's solution worked flawlessly. I also think Andy's solution will put less overhead on the server as it doesn't need to examine every url hitting it for possible re-write conditions.
I found a workaround:
Consider what in IIS is consired a website: simply a set of rules, the path in which get files and its bindings.
Furthermore, there's available a function called "HTTP Redirect" (included standardly in IIS), that redirect an host to another, keeping all subdirectory (it makes a relative path). The workaround is to leave just the binding for HTTPS (port 443) in your website, and create another with the binding on HTTP (port 80) and set for this an HTTP redirect to your URL with https://.
For example, consider a website called mytest and its urls http://www.mytest.com/ and https://www.mytest.com/.
Set for it instead only binding on https://www.mytest.com/, and delete the http binding. Then create a new website with the same local path, called mytest http with just a binding over port 80 (http://www.mytest.com/) and set for this one an HTTP Redirect to https://www.mytest.com/.
Simple and clean, and that should be as fast as directly the https url for the user, because it's just an internal redirect. I hope that can work for you!
You can add the URL Rewrite module to IIS (IIS 7 or higher) which allows you to add create the redirect in a visual way. The module can be downloaded here.
This step-by-step tutorial worked wonders for me and explains that when using this module, all it actually does is add some code to your web.config file as such:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" redirectType="SeeOther" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
I have found that the
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Found" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" />
syntax will only work for the website's ROOT web.config file.
If the rewrite rule is applied to a virtual web.config file, then use..
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Found" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{URL}" />
The {URL} syntax will include the initial forward slash, the virtual path, and any URL parameters.
i have tow websites e.g "testsite.ir" and "testsite.com". as i know my web site is on Windows Server 2008, Microsoft-IIS/7.5 .
how can i use 301 redirect to redirect users from .ir to .com?
can i use .htaccess file or i should use webconfig?
i use the code bellow in my webconfig, but nothing happen:
<rule name="Redirect from ir to com" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www\.testsite\.ir$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.testsite.com/{R:0}" />
</rule>
Any help would be appreciated!
If you have remote access to the server you can do this within IIS. You need to enable HTTP Redirect within IIS (add/remove windows features) before you can add a rule. Once you've enabled it you can redirect the .ir site to the .com site. See here: http://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/httpredirect
