I'm struggling with IIS Rewrite maps. My map is simple:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect rule for MigratedSites" enabled="true" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.+)(/.+)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
<add input="{MigratedSites:{REQUEST_URI}}" pattern="(.+)" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://tgt.sp.lab{R:1}" appendQueryString="true" redirectType="Temporary" />
</rule>
</rules>
<rewriteMaps>
<rewriteMap name="MigratedSites">
<add key="/sites/apple" value="/sites/apple" />
<add key="/sites/banana" value="/sites/banana" />
</rewriteMap>
</rewriteMaps>
</rewrite>
What I have managed is http://src.sp.lab/sites/apple is redirected to http://tgt.sp.lab/sites/apple, and the same for banana, but what it doesn't do is redirect http://src.sp.lab/sites/apple/SitePages.Home.aspx to http://tgt.sp.lab/sites/apple/SitePages.Home.aspx
Anything I add after apple or banana causes the redirect to stop working. Any suggestions much appreciated.
I have tried all kinds of rewrite URL's and can't get IIS to send the URL of https://example.com/default.aspx/default.aspx to https://example.com/default.aspx
Google has indexed the site with the wrong URL when Bing got it right (go figure). Any help would be much appreciated. All my traffic is going to the wrong url (https://example.com/default.aspx/default.aspx).
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect www.xxx.com to xxx.com" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^https://example.com/default.aspx/default.aspx" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="default.aspx" />
</rule>
<rule name="redirect two character to default" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{URL}" pattern="^/[a-z]{2}(/)?$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="default.aspx" appendQueryString="false" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
There is some issue in your rule. {HTTP_HOST} only matches the hostname which is www.example.com it will not match the whole URL.
You could try below rule:
<rule name="Redirect www.xxx.com to xxx.com" enabled="true" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="www.example.com" />
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="on" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="default/default|default.aspx/default.aspx" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="default.aspx" />
</rule>
Trying to figure out how to do wildcards for querystrings. Right now this works, but it has to be an exact match.
I have this rewrite rule.
<rule name="Redirect rule1 for Redirects ReSv">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{Redirects:{REQUEST_URI}}" pattern="(.+)" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="{C:1}" appendQueryString="true" />
</rule>
My rewrite maps are like:
<rewriteMaps>
<rewriteMap name="Redirects">
<add key="/contact-us.aspx" value="/contact/" />
<add key="/contact-us/request-information.aspx" value="/contact/" />
</rewriteMap>
</rewriteMaps>
Trying to get something like this:
/contact-us.aspx?q=t&1=2
To redirect to:
/contact/
And include the querystring? so..
/contact/?q=t&1=2
Please us {URL} variable instead of {REQUEST_URI}. Then Rewritemap will be able to wildcard the query string.
<rule name="Redirect rule1 for Redirects ReSv" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{Redirects:{URL}}" pattern="(.+)" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="{C:1}" appendQueryString="true" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
I'm trying to implement simple IIS URL rewrite. I want to rewrite URL: about.test.local to text.local/about.html .
In configuration below I have added rules, but it doesn't seem to work. What is the problem?
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Rewrite1" patternSyntax="ExactMatch" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="about.test.local" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://test.local/about.html" />
</rule>
<rule name="Rewrite2" patternSyntax="ExactMatch" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="http://about.test.local/" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://test.local/about.html" logRewrittenUrl="true" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
As #beavel mentioned, I have added following rules, but URL still doesn't get rewritten:
<rule name="Rewrite2a" patternSyntax="ExactMatch" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.+)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="about.test.local" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://test.local/about.html" />
</rule>
<rule name="Rewrite2b" patternSyntax="ExactMatch" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.+)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="http://about.test.local/" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://test.local/about.html" />
</rule>
The problem is that the match url doesn't contain the host as explained here. If you have multiple hostnames bound to one IIS site and only want to rewrite the one hostname you would do something like:
<rule name="Rewrite1" patternSyntax="ExactMatch" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.+)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="about.test.local" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://test.local/about.html" />
</rule>
I need to redirect non-www URLs to www URL for both HTTP and HTTPS URLs. I tried following rules in web.config.
<rule name="Redirect to WWW" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^example.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.example.com/{R:0}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
<rule name="Redirect to WWW https" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^example.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.example.com/{R:0}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
It works perfectly for non-ssl URL but in case of SSL it redirect from https://example.com to http://www.example.com.
For a safer rule that works for both Match Any and Match All situations, you can use the Rewrite Map solution. It’s a perfectly good solution with the only drawback being the ever so slight extra effort to set it up since you need to create a rewrite map before you create the rule. In other words, if you choose to use this as your sole method of handling the protocol, you’ll be safe.
You can create a Rewrite Map called MapProtocol, you can use {MapProtocol:{HTTPS}} for the protocol within any rule action.
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to www" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^example.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect"
url="{MapProtocol:{HTTPS}}://www.example.com/{R:1}" />
</rule>
</rules>
<rewriteMaps>
<rewriteMap name="MapProtocol">
<add key="on" value="https" />
<add key="off" value="http" />
</rewriteMap>
</rewriteMaps>
</rewrite>
Reference
Other answers here are unnecessary long, here's the rule i use (just copy and paste) :
<rule name="ensurewww" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{CACHE_URL}" pattern="^(.+)://(?!www)(.*)" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="{C:1}://www.{C:2}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
This will redirect to the www version while preserving the HTTP and HTTPS protocol
Hope this helps.
Since 2018, consider to use everytime https (SSL) !
So I use redirect to www and to https together.
<rule name="Redirect to www" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^example.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.example.com/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
<rule name="HTTP/S to HTTPS Redirect" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
<add input="{SERVER_PORT_SECURE}" pattern="^0$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>

I know this is an old post but it's not fully answered. I ended up extending Satpals answer
First rule catches http + www and second one catches non-www
For some reason i could not use MapProtocol in the fist Rule but it works with https written directly into the url.
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Special case www & HTTPS off" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www\.example\.com$" />
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.example.com/{R:1}" redirectType="SeeOther" />
</rule>
<rule name="Redirect to www & HTTPS" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^example\.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="{MapProtocol:{HTTPS}}://www.example.com/{R:1}" redirectType="SeeOther" />
</rule>
</rules>
<rewriteMaps>
<rewriteMap name="MapProtocol">
<add key="on" value="https" />
<add key="off" value="http" />
</rewriteMap>
</rewriteMaps>
</rewrite>
This worked fine for me:-
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to WWW" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^myExample.in$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.myExample.in/{R:0}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
This post is basically for those who need to redirect non-www to www URL in windows hosting.
In web.config file as below code:
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name=”Redirect example.com to www.example.com HTTP” patternSyntax=”ECMAScript” stopProcessing=”true”>
<match url=”.*” />
<conditions>
<add input=”{HTTP_HOST}” pattern=”^example.com$” />
<add input=”{HTTPS}” pattern=”off” />
</conditions>
<action type=”Redirect” url=”http://www.example.com/{R:0}” redirectType=”Permanent” appendQueryString=”true”/>
</rule>
<rule name=”Redirect example.com to www.example.com HTTPS” patternSyntax=”ECMAScript” stopProcessing=”true”>
<match url=”.*” />
<conditions>
<add input=”{HTTP_HOST}” pattern=”^example.com$” />
<add input=”{HTTPS}” pattern=”on” />
</conditions>
<action type=”Redirect” url=”https://www.example.com/{R:0}” redirectType=”Permanent” appendQueryString=”true”/>
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
In the above code please note there are two rules used one for HTTP and another for HTTPS. To avoid clashing of HTTP and HTTPS in the same rule, here used two separate patterns.
I hope it works for you guys…!!
