Question

I’m trying to use ManagedFusion UrlRewriter module on my main/root web site to redirect requests with a certain host name to a sub-folder of the root. Let’s say my root is called profkroot.com, and it has a sub-folder (ASP.NET application) called cottages. I also have a domain called profkcottages.com, which I’m trying to redirect to profkroot.com/cottages.

Using the following example rule, I get a totally borked rewritten URL. I grok the regex side of the rule, but I don’t know enough about the rewrite part.

Here is the rule in place on profkroot.com:

RewriteEngine On

#Fix missing trailing slash char on folders
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} (.*)
RewriteRule ([^.?]+[^.?/]) http\://%1$1/ [R]

#Emulate profkcottages.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} (?:www\.)?profkcottages\.com
RewriteRule (.*) /cottages$1 [NC,L]

Here is the rewritten url if I request http://profcottages/home.aspx:

http://profkcottages.com/http/://profkcottages.com/home/.http/://profkcottages.comaspx/

Turns out I had the RewriterModule added twice; once under System.Web, for IIS6 (hosted) and once under System.WebServer, for IIS7 (local). Still not working 100% with css and img content, but that’s another question.
