How do I Redirect page.ASPX to / in MVC5

Question

We have rewritten our app in MVC5 and there is a new homepage " http://server/ ".

People have bookmarked our old homepage " http://server/App.aspx " and their links are now broken.

What do I do to redirect " http://server/App.aspx " to " http://server/ "

TIA!

You can use the IIS rewrite module if it installed. All you need to do is add this to the system.webServer node in the web.config.

<rewrite>
  <rules>
    <rule name="rule1" stopProcessing = "true" >
      <match url="App.aspx" />
      <action type="Redirect" url="/" appendQueryString="false" />
    </rule>
  </rules>
</rewrite>
