IIS 301 Redirection

Question

User167598524 posted

I stuck in redirection process using IIS. I want to redirect URL to another one. But the main point here is that the URL can be from Http or Https. For example:

URL A: http://www.example.com - redirect to https://www.example.org

URL B: https://www.example.com - redirect to https://www.example.org

How can I achieve this scenario?

What I have done is just redirecting old URL coming from https protocol to new domain. However, if the old url comes with http protocol then it wont redirect. I want to redirect old URL to new one, whether it comes with http or https.

Thanks for help.

Hi

You can take following rewrite rule code as reference.

This is not what I want dear.

Do 1 thing, Just create a rule which will redirect you to other url from old url. And try to access old url by both, Https and Http and see do you get same result in both or not.

Thanks.

<rewrite>
  <rules>
    <rule name="Redirect oldexample.com to newexample.com" stopProcessing="true">
      <match url="(.*)" />

Thanks for the reply.

And what about below scenario:

1- (http or https)://www.example.com/ar/brand/apple  moved to www.newurl.com/ar/brand/apple

2- (http or https)://www.example.com/ar/brand/bosh  moved to www.newurl.com/ar/brand/bosh

Please try

    <rule name="Redirect oldexample.com to newexample.com" stopProcessing="true">
      <match url="(.*)" />
      <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny" trackAllCaptures="false">
        <add input="{HTTPS}"      negate="true" pattern="^www\.oldexample\.com$" /> 
        <add input="{HTTP_HOST}"  negate="true" pattern="^www\.oldexample\.com$" />

Hi,

if the old url comes with http protocol then it wont redirect

So you does an explicit check on that ? It seems to me you should be able to redirect www.example.com (regardless of using http or https) to https://www.example.org ? 

Having two rules might be more convenient. I suspect the problem could be that you try to use the same rule to also handle http://www.example.org to https://www.example.org redirection ?

I have around 100 redirection. What is the best way to do that keeping in mind that the new url structure is different that the old one like:

(http or https)://www.oldurl.com/ar/bosch to https://newurl/ar/home-appliances/brands-1/bosch.html

(http or https)://www.oldurl.com/ar/apple to https://newurl/ar/home-appliances/shop-apple/apple.html

Hope you get it.

Did you try my last post?

Answer 9

User167598524 posted

Yes and that only redirect using the structure of old url. However, new url have different structure than old one.

Yes that is the one solution for this. But I dont want to do like this. There are 100 of redirection rules already which worked perfectly with https.
