I need to have a single, non-reg-ex pattern url to either rewrite or redirect to. I d’loaded URL Rewrite 2.0 for IIS7 but each option requests for a pattern to test, of which I have none.
I created an Inbound Rule but I don’t know what to do about the Pattern field. I’m not searching for anything more than an exact url to point to. This is what I entered:
Requested URL: Matches the Pattern
Using: Exact Match
Pattern: http://foo.bar/virtual/url/ (ignore case checked)
Action Type: Redirect
Redirect URL: http://foo.bar/?blah=1&meh=3&etc….
Redirect Type: 302
Nevermind, found an excellent tutorial on how to do this. Turns out it’s a mapping entry, no regex required. Thank god!
