子目录中的web.config不适用于根目录中的web.config

Question

I have 3 Wordpress installation on my webserver, one in the root folder, 2 in sub directories (iis):

/
/wp_one
/wp_two

All of them have a web.config. If I remove the web.config from the root directory, URLs in children wp works pretty well. If I add it again, links point to the right place but when you click, I`m redirected to the correspondent page on root. For example: www.site.com/wp_one/contact redirects to www.site/contact.

web.config content (they have the same content):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <configuration>
    <system.webServer>
      <rewrite>
        <rules>
          <rule name="wp" stopProcessing="true">
            <match url=".*"/>
              <conditions>
                <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true"/>
                <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true"/>
              </conditions>
              <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php"/>
            </rule>
        </rules>
      </rewrite>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

When you have multiple config files they are merged into a single one during runtime. This said when you have a web.config in your root the child ones are merged inside and since your paths are not relative they become invalid.

In order to fix this you will have to make your paths relative based on the topmost web.config.
