How can I redirect with url rewrite e.g. from https://www.contoso.com to another server e.g. to https://www.testpage.com
You can use iis url rewrite for redirection, and use this rule:
<rule name="test">
<match url="^(.*)$" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www.contoso.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.testpage.com/{R:1}" />
</rule>
I have a web.config redirect section that is intended to redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS. Here is the redirect section in my web.config file:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect HTTP to HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
<outboundRules>
<rule name="Add the STS header in HTTPS responses">
<match serverVariable="RESPONSE_Strict_Transport_Security" pattern=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="on" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" value="max-age=31536000" />
</rule>
</outboundRules>
</rewrite>
I am not sure what flexibility can be implemented but I want this section to work as-is EXCEPT for a specific URL. Specifically, I want all HTTP traffic to continue to be redirect from HTTP to HTTPS EXCEPT when the request is HTTP://{HOST}/symphony/default.aspx.
Is this possible?
You can try adding a condition to the rule to match the request HTTP://{HOST}/symphony/default.aspx, and then use the negate attribute to negate the result of matching.
More information about negate you can refer to this link: Rule pattern properties.
I need to redirect to another website when the url contains www. and the query-string does not match the specfic value. I am always getting redirected irrespective of the condition
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to Landing Page" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
<add input="{HTTP_Host}" pattern="www.dev.MyWebpage.com/MCPrivacyNotice" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://www.myWebPage.com" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
As you described, so you need to redirect when
Domain is www.dev.MyWebpage.com
Request uri is /MCPrivacyNotice
So I think this may be your answer
<rule name="Redirect to Landing Page" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="www.dev.MyWebpage.com" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="/MCPrivacyNotice" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="myWebPage.com" />
</rule>
Note that logicalGrouping="MatchAll" to match all condition. In your question and your update you used logicalGrouping="MatchAny" that means every request from domain www.dev.MyWebpage.com will be redirected
One more thing, /MCPrivacyNotice is {REQUEST_URI} or PATH_INFO not QUERY_STRING you should choose the right module. Check this for detail https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/extensions/url-rewrite-module/url-rewrite-module-configuration-reference
Hope this helps
i need to redirect from
www.domain.de to https://domain.de
-works
http://www.domain.de to https://domain.de
-works
http://domain.de to https://domain.de
-does not work
rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Imported Rule 1" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(.*)$" ignoreCase="false" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www\.(.+)$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{C:1}/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
I think this will work for you, the search pattern has the optional www and redirects using the back reference C:2, the rule has a condition to only run against non https.
This is the pattern:
"^(www\.)?(.*)$"
where:
{C:0} - www.domain.de
{C:1} - www.
{C:2} - domain.de
Here's the rule in full:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="SecureRedirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(.*)$" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" />
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^(www\.)?(.*)$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{C:2}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
The accepted answer doesn't handle the special case https://www.domain.de.
These rules do the complete job:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to HTTPS without www" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^(www\.)?(.*)$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{C:2}/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
<rule name="Special case for HTTPS with www" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^ON$" />
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^(www\.)(.*)$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{C:2}/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
If you want to redirect www to non www:
Add DNS entry for www.yourdomain.com to refer to your server's public IP
Then you need to Edit Bindings of your website and "Add Binding" www.yourdomain.com
Add a rewrite rule to your website using iis:
<rule name="Remove WWW" patternSyntax="Wildcard" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{CACHE_URL}" pattern="*://www.*" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="{C:1}://{C:2}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
Reference: http://madskristensen.net/post/url-rewrite-and-the-www-subdomain
If you want something more flexible than for your three examples, change your HTTP_HOST pattern to : \w+\.\w+$. That would work for all three examples plus anything else, like subdomain.abcdef.domain.de.
If you use this regex either encase it in parenthesis or change C:1 to C:0 in your action.
This is what worked for me:
<rule name="NameRule1" stopProcessing="true" enabled="true" >
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^example\.com$" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://example.com/{R:1}" />
</rule>
I got it from: https://medium.com/iis-and-windows-server/redirect-url-from-www-to-non-www-in-iis7-5-4d2909b9704
Redirecting https://www.example.com to https://example.com I had to do 2 steps
Select the website, click "URL Rewrite" -> Click "Add Rule" -> Choose "Cononcial domain name" -> select your domain (without the www) -> make sure rule is at the top -> highlight the rule and click "Edit" -> and update "Redirect URL" at the end of the rule to include the 's' - https://example.com/{R:1}
I had to also create a new website with the domain www.example.com, new app pool and select the SSL cert and point it to a folder containing the following (for some reason StackOverflow wont display the code I pasted below for the rewrite rule but just google IIS rewrite rule)
After doing both steps only then does it work as desired
Tried many of solutions but below works for me:
Right click on Domain and Add a Site bindings, add one more domain with www:
2. Restart services. it should work.
These rewrite rules matches the following URL's:
www.example.com
http://www.example.com
https://www.example.com
They will all redirect to: https://example.com
These rewrite rules may redirect twice because of the separate rules. (I'm a newbie with regex)
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="HTTPS" enabled="true" patternSyntax="Wildcard" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}" />
</rule>
<rule name="WWW" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(.*)$" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^(www\.)(.*)$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://example.com{PATH_INFO}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>

Is it possible to redirect using web.config based on the presence of a querystring in the initially requested URL? I'm not sure what to include in the the conditions. I'm a beginner at working with rewrite/redirect rules in web.config and would like to learn more about syntax, parameters etc.
I'm trying to do something like this:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Restricted Folder with Querystring" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^test folder/(.*)" ignoreCase="false" />
<conditions>
<!--redirect to a certain page if a certain querystring is present -->
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Permanent" url="/test folder/{R:1}" />
</rule>
<rule name="Restricted Folder without Querystring" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^test folder/(.*)" ignoreCase="false" />
<conditions>
<!--redirect to another page if querystring is not present -->
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Permanent" url="https://www.whatever.com/page.asp?url={R:1}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
deeholzman, I believe for your Condition - Add Input example you want to use "pattern" and not "matchType". EX:
<add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern="^whateverpattern" />
or
<add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern="^whateverpattern" negate="true" />
I found the answer in the URL Rewrite Module Configuration Reference. In the rewrite section of web.config in whatever folder you wanted to perform the redirect from, it would go something like this:
<rules>
<rule name="Restricted Folder Gimbal" stopProcessing="false">
<match url="(.*)" ignoreCase="true" />
<conditions>
<add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern="^whateverpattern" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Permanent" url="http://www.whatever.com/file.html" />
</rule>
</rules>
For a querystring not present, you could add the 'negate' parameter to the condition:
<add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern="^whateverpattern" negate="true" />
The the URL Rewrite Module Configuration Reference is a very handy reference that unfortunately took me longer than expected to find.
