Rewrite rules into web.config for js and png files

Question

I have an application ASP.Net, Web api with c# , that used https and I want the js, css files and images to be sent with http. I try different thinks but it didn't work. I've tried this:

<rewrite>
  <rules>
    <rule name="Redirect Image to HTTP">
      <match url=".*\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|css|js)$"/>  
      <action type="Redirect" url="http://{SERVER_NAME}/{R:1}" redirectType="SeeOther"/>

  </rules>
</rewrite>

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Try this

<rules>
    <rule name="Redirect Image to HTTP">
      <match url=".*\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|css|js)$"/>  
      <action type="Redirect" url="http://{SERVER_NAME}/{R:1}" redirectType="Found"/>

  </rules>

Probably you should specify HTTPS as condition:

<rewrite>
  <rules>
    <rule name="Redirect Image to HTTP">
      <match url=".*\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|css|js)$"/>  
      <conditions>
           <add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="ON" />
      </conditions>
      <action type="Redirect" url="http://{SERVER_NAME}/{R:1}" redirectType="SeeOther"/>
  </rules>
</rewrite>

BTW, it's better to use .+ rather than .* in your regexp.
