Hi, What exactly are you trying to achieve?
At the moment, requests for http://server/vdir http://server/vdir/ http://server/vdir/vdir_redir.htm would redirect to http://server/vdir/start.html Is that what you want to happen? Otherwise, can you explain more what "does not work" means? Cheers Ken From: Joseph L. Casale [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, 24 November 2011 3:45 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: IIS 7.5 Wildcard redirect and SSL I have an app that modifies applicationHost.config and removes the default doc types and adds its own to a single html file it creates in its webroot for the virtual directory. It then sets a wildcard redirect for that file to a url that a user should start with. Problem is the method they use does not work unless a redirect on the default website (not just a virtual dir) is in place? The code they add to applicationHost.config is: <location path="Default Web Site/vdir"> <system.webServer> <httpRedirect enabled="true" exactDestination="true"> <add wildcard="/vdir/vdir_redir.htm" destination="/vdir/start.html" /> </httpRedirect> <defaultDocument> <files> <clear /> <add value="Default.htm" /> <add value="Default.asp" /> <add value="index.htm" /> <add value="index.html" /> <add value="iisstart.htm" /> <clear /> <add value="vdir_redir.htm" /> </files> </defaultDocument> </system.webServer> </location> Anyone more experienced with IIS 7.5 know what this should look like? Ultimately, I stumbled across this when trying to setup an http to https redirect and had some unexplainable issues.
