I'm trying to use the URL Rewrite module for IIS 8 to make sure all connections are https. What I cannot figure out is how to maintain the full path for the rule. I am new to using this so hopefully this is a simple fix.
I will go to a page like this : https://xyz.domain.com/mypath/default.aspx.
After removing the 's' from 'https', I get redirected to https://xyz.domain.com/default.aspx and the mypath path is gone. I need to maintain this.
Here is the webconfig entry:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Force http to https" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
I encountered the same issue after following an example online. I changed the redirect url to be https://{HTTP_HOST}/{REQUEST_URI}, and it preserved the full URL in the redirected request.
For reference, see the online docs URL Rewrite Module Configuration Reference.
Try this instead:
<!-- Require HTTPS -->
<rule name="HTTP to HTTPS redirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" ignoreCase="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
I have a website such as foo.com
I want to redirect all request for http://foo.com to http://www.foo.com
one way to do this is URL redirect but its not efficient. there is some other way to do this.
You should install the IIS Rewrite module from here and add this rule in your web.config file:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect domain.com to www" patternSyntax="Wildcard" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="domain.com" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.domain.com/{R:0}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
I have an MVC Website published using Azure Websites.
I need to redirect a subdomain to an external website.
I tried to use url-rewrite but it seems not working. Is there something wrong with my url rewrite module?
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to Facebook" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)"/>
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^(facebook\.)(.*)$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.facebook.com/myprofile" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
I have a problem. On IIS I got a web-site with two ports 80 and 443(https). I want to redirect all the http requests from user to https. I also added Rewrite rule to https, but when I enter in browser http://localhost/site it gives me the same page. I need to redirect user to httpS://localhost/site.
Maybe this is because of my local configurations?
And I disable Require SSL on IIS.
The rule is:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="HTTPS Redirect">
<match url="(.*)" ignoreCase="false" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" ignoreCase="false" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Found" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
Thank you.
Below is the exact rule we use on a production IIS 7 site to redirect all request from HTTP to HTTPS
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" redirectType="Found" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
There are some minor differences between what you have posted and what we use. Also, since you are running on local host, you wouldn't be using the built-in web server with visual studio would you? I don't think it will process IIS rewrite rules.
I realize this may not be your issue, however I had a similar debacle that was cause by a different problem.
I had enabled Require SSL and that caused the site to continually return a 403. So to use this method it appears you must disable SSL Settings -> Require SSL.
Hope this helps someone.
Also, if you have more than one rule, order could matter. Be sure to add the redirect rule before other rules or redirect may not fire.
Here is an example that is using SPA that required the rule order.
<rules>
// Adding this as last rule will cause it to not redirect
<rule name="HTTP/S to HTTPS Redirect" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
<add input="{SERVER_PORT_SECURE}" pattern="^0$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
<rule name="static dist files" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^(.+)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH}app\{R:1}" matchType="IsFile" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="/app/{R:1}" />
</rule>
<rule name="index.html as document root" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^$" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="/app/" />
</rule>
<rule name="SPA Routes" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*|.*/.*$" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/(api)" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="/app/" />
</rule>
</rules>
It works for me in IIS 8.5
redirect
Three points:
Use single word OFF rather than ^OFF$
Use url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{REQUEST_URI}"
Use redirectType=Permanent rather than Found although both are working but preferable Permanent type in this case
The webconfig code
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirect to HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="OFF" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{REQUEST_URI}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
you can add this to your pages. to force redirection.
if (!Request.IsSecureConnection)
{
Uri uri = new Uri(Request.Url, Request.RawUrl);
Response.Redirect(string.Format("https://{0}{1}{2}", uri.Host.StartsWith("www.x.com") ? uri.Host : "www.x.com", uri.AbsolutePath, uri.Query));
}
I just seen your tag of mvc
add this attribute to your actions. or controllers.
[RequireHttps]
I'm trying to rewrite all the urls for my website.
For example, if the user types in mysite.com/index.aspx
it'll change the url in the top to www.mysite.com/index.aspx
Any suggestions?
Try this one
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Enforce canonical hostname" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" negate="true" pattern="^www\.mysite\.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.mysite.com/{R:1}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
