I'm used to working with IIS and when working with Single Page Apps I usually put in an iis rewrite into the webconfig file:
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="AngularJS Routes" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/(api)" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="/" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
This allows me to access a direct path in my application such as: http://www.example.com/dashboard
However this particular project I am working with aws (not iis) and there aren't any guides to achieve the same result. Please can someone point me in the right direction?

I want to rewrite a url to index.html. the web.config below does the job until first path.
eg:- test.com/test1 to test.com/index.html but it doesnt work with multiple paths. eg:- test.com/test1/test2
my current web.config
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="redirect all requests" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(.*)$" ignoreCase="false" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" pattern="" ignoreCase="false" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="index.html" appendQueryString="true" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
I'm not sure what I'm missing here. Please if any of you know, write the correct web.config.
Thank you.
You can try this rule:
<rule name="test" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/([^/]+)" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://test.com/{C:1}/index.com" redirectType="Found" />
</rule>
with some hit and trail, i managed to remove the extention of the pages which i view for my website, now i want to replace all the ? and = and the & signs with backslash /, I am really Lost now, how do i write that rule in my web config
My Web.Config File:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect .cfm extension" stopProcessing="false">
<match url="^(.*).cfm$" ignoreCase="true" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
<add input="{URL}" pattern="(.*).cfm$" ignoreCase="false" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
<rule name="hide .cfm extension" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(.*)$" ignoreCase="true" />
<conditions>
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}.cfm" matchType="IsFile" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="{R:0}.cfm" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
with the above, i managed to get a page like this
http://website.ca/graphics?mode=Graphics%20Design%20%C2%BB%20Business%20cards&catID=35§ion=graphics
the graphics? is the one which was before graphics.cfm?
I have implemented some URL Redirects combined on IIS/ColdFusion is working fine but I am not able to deal with some regex pattern to reduce unneeded redirects.
Currently IIS is only handling a single redirect (at most) only if it finds a template name within the URL. e.g. IIS redirects a URL such as
http://example.com/index.cfm/something/pretty/?page=1
to
http://example.com/something/pretty/?page=1
For instance, it just removes the template name from the URL leaving everything intact following it. The final URL above is a valid one according to my application.
But in addition, if a trailing slash (/) is not found in the final URL, ColduFusion application is handling this case and appends a forward slash at the end, then redirects to a URL that ends with a forward slash (/) before a query string (if there is). It works with some logic to maintain PATH_INFO and QUERY_STRING intact. But that is actually causing multiple redirects in the following situation.
[INIT] http://example.com/index.cfm/sport/badminton
[Redirect 1] [IIS-301] http://example.com/sport/badminton
[Redirect 2] [CF-301] http://example.com/sport/badminton/
Now that I want to handle all of this in IIS and cover all cases in one Rule, I am not able to make (or find) a regex pattern that could do it.
Current IIS redirect pattern
^index.cfm/(.*)$
I have tried various ones along with the most simple
^index.cfm/(.*[^/])$
But it doesn't cover a URL with a QUERY_STRING. You can take me as real naive in making regular expressions.
Update 1: I found that the proper term for the issue is "Chained" redirects and found an article at moz.com which is kind of handling the same issue I've referred above. I guess it should work, and while I am on it changing the rules as required on my server, I thought I should update this question with something I have found for others who may have such an issue. I'll update this as soon as I could use this solution to fix the issue at my side.
Sorry that I couldn't have an answer over here but as I updated above question about an article at moz.com, I have implemented that approach and successfully recovered from the Chained/Multiple redirects.
Previously our web application was supporting the following URL
https://www.example.com/index.cfm/something/pretty/
Than we used URL ReWriting in IIS and removed index.cfm from the URL. But we had trouble that there were multiple/chained redirections to redirect from non-https, non-www, or no trailing slash, etc.
https://moz.com/blog/what-every-seo-should-know-about-iis#chaining
After reading the article above, I've implemented following set of rules on IIS that now takes care of all the cases we had previously handled on IIS and on ColdFusion separately.
<rules>
<!-- rewrite url to furnish with prefix(_) to better match individual parts -->
<rule name="Remove index.cfm" stopProcessing="false">
<match url="(.*?)/?index\.cfm/(.*)$" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_METHOD}" pattern="GET" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="_{R:2}" />
</rule>
<rule name="Add Trailing Slash" stopProcessing="false">
<match url="(.*[^/])$" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="_{R:1}/" />
</rule>
<rule name="ToLower Everything in URL" enabled="true" stopProcessing="false">
<match url="(.*)" ignoreCase="false" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_METHOD}" pattern="GET" />
<add input="{R:1}" pattern="[A-Z]" ignoreCase="false" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="_{ToLower:{R:1}}" />
</rule>
<!-- Now redirect the final prefix-furnished URL -->
<!-- match if there is at least one (_) at the start of the furnished URL. Redirect to the final URL -->
<rule name="http[non www] to https[www] redirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(_*)(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www\.yoursite\.com$" negate="true" />
<add input="{HTTP_METHOD}" pattern="GET" />
<add input="{SERVER_PORT}" pattern="80" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.example.org/{R:2}" />
</rule>
<rule name="http[www] to https[www] redirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(_*)(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_METHOD}" pattern="GET" />
<add input="{SERVER_PORT}" pattern="80" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.example.org/{R:2}" />
</rule>
<rule name="https[non www] to https[www] redirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(_*)(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www\.yoursite\.com$" negate="true" />
<add input="{HTTP_METHOD}" pattern="GET" />
<add input="{SERVER_PORT}" pattern="443" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.example.org/{R:2}" />
</rule>
<!-- this rule is supposed to run final redirect if non above redirect rules occured -->
<rule name="http// redirect" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(_+)(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_METHOD}" pattern="GET" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="{R:2}" />
</rule>
<!-- now after failing/running all rules above when the IIS reaches at this point, it's the fully validated/funrished URL that qualifies to serve with response. Rewrite the URL to run index.cfm as a template -->
<rule name="URL ReWrite" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(.*)$" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" pattern="/admin" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="index.cfm/{R:1}" />
</rule>
These rules are strictly according to our requirement where we wanted all requests to be routed to [https], you must check the moz.com article above for reference.
Hope this could help others.
I'm preparing for a major overhaul of our shopping cart, which is going to completely change how the urls are structured. For what its worth, this is for Magento 1.7.
An example URL would be:
{domain}/item/sub-domain/sub-sub-domain-5-16-7-16-/8083770?plpver=98&categid=1027&prodid=8090&origin=keyword
and redirect it to {domain}/catalogsearch/result/?q=8083710
My web.config is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Magento Required" stopProcessing="false">
<match url=".*" ignoreCase="false" /> <conditions>
<add input="{URL}" pattern="^/(media|skin|js)/" ignoreCase="false" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
</conditions> <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" />
</rule>
<rule name="Item Redirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^item/([_\-a-zA-Z0-9]+)/([_\-a-zA-Z0-9]+)/([_\-a-zA-Z0-9]+)(\?.*)" />
<action type="Redirect" url="catalogsearch/result/?q={R:3}" appendQueryString="true" redirectType="Permanent" />
<conditions trackAllCaptures="true">
</conditions>
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
<httpProtocol allowKeepAlive="false" />
<caching enabled="false" />
<urlCompression doDynamicCompression="true" />
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
Right now it seems the redirect is completely ignored, even though in the IIS GUI the sample url passes the regex test. Is there a better way to redirect or is there something wrong with my web.config?
Turns out the answer is here. Can't have a Question Mark in the regex, as IIS treats it as a query string and it needs to be captured in the "conditions" section of the web.config.
So I just took (\?.*) off the end of regex, and added:
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny" trackAllCaptures="true">
<add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern=".*" />
</conditions>
We currently have a wordpress blog running under a sub domain http:// blog.domain.com. That site is also currently running via reverse proxy as http:// www.domain.com/blog that points to the original subdomain site.
Currently both sites are running correctly but the issue we have is that we want the sub domain site to redirect to the reversed proxy site and not render. We only want the site to render as http:// www.domain.com/blog. I have been attempting to use the URL Rewrite in IIS 7 on a server 2008 machine.
I think the issue I am having is with the regular expression. I tried using -- ^(blog.)* -- and when I test it in IIS it returns that it matches (blog.domainname.com) but the site itself does not redirect when I open it in a browser. I'm not sure what I am missing. Thanks in advance for your help.

The problem is probably that your rewrite rules are not running when you hit that URL.
Make sure that it's actually mapped to that site.
Sorry, I just noticed that your rule is not enabled:
<rule name="redirect to /blog" enabled="false" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true">
You'd have to modify the enabled attribute to True.
