Why doesn’t url rewrite work in server

Question

In asp.net 3.5, I'm rewriting the url

    http://www.dotoobeta/blogs/1108

to the following

    http://www.dotoobeta/blogs/blogs.aspx

I am using the UrlRewritingNet.UrlRewriter.dll and it works fine locally, but it is not work on my other server. I already modified the configuration in IIS also.

What is the solution?

Answer 1

Perhaps your server is not configured to route requests like http://www.dotoobeta/blogs/1108 through ASP.NET pipeline. If you have IIS 6 or higher on the server, you can configure wildcard handler and handle everything via ASP.NET. Don't forget to uncheck "verify that file exists" checkbox, or it won't work for nonexisting paths.

Answer 2

I have similar problem, and it's caused by architecture. I must add mapping for 64 bit too like this :

  <add name="aspnet_isapi"    path="*" verb="*" modules="IsapiModule" scriptProcessor="%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll" resourceType="Unspecified" requireAccess="None" preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv2.0,bitness32" />
  <add name="aspnet_isapi-64" path="*" verb="*" modules="IsapiModule" scriptProcessor="%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll" resourceType="Unspecified" requireAccess="None" preCondition="classicMode,runtimeVersionv2.0,bitness64" />
