Hopefully a simple question although one I have found impossible to answer myself using the Googles!
I have a website on IIS with the URL http://www.contoso.com/ which points to C:\www\public\
There has been a forced directory restructure so now all of the data (Default.aspx, Product.aspx, etc.) that originally resided in C:\www\public\ now resides in C:\www\public\en\ie\ – however, the IIS website document root is still C:\www\public\
So, essentially, I have a lot of inbound links to http://www.contoso.com/Product.aspx?id=1 (etc.) which are now returning 404 errors – the correct link is now http://www.contoso.com/en/ie/Product.aspx?id=1
Please consider that I can make no changes to the directory structure or the IIS document root… so I must solve this issue using URL rewriting.
Is it possible to capture all requests to contoso.com/* and rewrite them to contoso.com/en/ie/* ??
As Ivo suggests, using url rewriting you can set up inbound rules that match the old url pattern and redirect to the new pattern
