IIS7: rewrite URL http://web1.com/web1/def.aspx to http://web1.com/def.aspx

Question

I need my site to be stored in a subfolder of my domain root. Is there a way to rewrite URLs so that they are not stored in a subfolder? For me it does not matter if this is done at the IIS level or in web.config.

Answer 1

Have you looked at the routing mechanism that came out of the MVC project, but is now a standalone feature of the .NET Framework?

Answer 2

With IIS7, the path is probably the module that Microsoft itself releases: http://blogs.iis.net/ruslany/archive/2008/11/10/url-rewrite-module-release-to-web.aspx

Answer 3

If you decide to go with an ISAPI filter, we had a good impression of Ionic Isapi Rewrite . And it's free (beer and speech).

Answer 4

I use ManagedFusion Url Rewriter on my blog. I like it because it does not need to be installed at the server level.

Answer 5

Apparently, you can get the desired behavior using the ISAPI filter.

Google for: rewrite the ISAPI filter, and you will find some ready-made examples to try and see what works best for you.
