How can I create a redirection on IIS?
-
Hi,
I want to know how to create a server side 301 redirection on IIS7.
I found on google the below details;
IIS Redirect
- In internet services manager, right click on the file or folder you wish to redirect
- Select the radio titled "a redirection to a URL".
- Enter the redirection page
- Check "The exact url entered above" and the "A permanent redirection for this resource"
- Click on 'Apply'
But couldn't find anything like that. Can anyone help me out.
thanks & regards

Hi,
Thanks so much Zachary. In fact I am purely from linux background. This is the first time I am dealing with IIS. let me check albiet short and IIS Manager.
Apart from web config file, I read about global.asax file. I think these files are are used for redirecting a whole site, right?. But in my case I need to redirect some of my old html pages to aspx pages.
best!

Hi John!
Are you using IIS Manager to administrate your server? If not, that's probably why the details you listed would not apply.
If you come from a Linux background and just want to modify a file, like you would with the .htacess file, you will be editing the web config file. Microsoft has a knowledge base article (albeit short) on this at the following:
Let me know if you have questions. I would be happy to help further.
Cheers!
