I have a page, called foo.aspx and i d like to rewrite the url as bar.something
How to do this? How does url rewrite happens in asp.net
Should i create a generic handler?
or should i get some url rewrite modules and add to app?
This is done by configuring IIS, and will require IIS7, look here for configuration help:
http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/460/using-the-url-rewrite-module/
Remember, you also have the new Routing option with ASP.NET 4.0:

You should also check this SO response:

My URL is "http://properties.Poject.net/Public.aspx?account=ACCOUNT&id=HL101"
and my desired URL is http://properties.Poject.net/ACCOUNT/HL101
Please help me to achieve this. ALso i don't have URLWrite option in my IIS 6 and my project is under .net 3.5. Please help me config in Web.config
Thanks.

Use the concept called Url Routing in asp.net
refer article
http://www.asp.net/web-forms/tutorials/aspnet-45/getting-started-with-aspnet-45-web-forms/url-routing
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2009/10/13/url-routing-with-asp-net-4-web-forms-vs-2010-and-net-4-0-series.aspx
use the following two links, it briefly describe how to apply url Routing,by the way URL routing is more advance concept then URL rewriting so use that.....

is any possible way to rewrite my all webpage url. For example i was create a webpage name index.aspx and Event_view.aspx. It show in the address bar something like this..
http://localhost:65232/HRM/user/index.aspx
http://localhost:65232/HRM/user/Event_view.aspx
I want to convert the above url to something like this http://localhost:65232/HRM/user/sdf-3434sd34-343243-#45_343/Event_view
please help me to redirect the webpage url..
You can use URLRewrite module. The below link will give you a good walkthrough
http://www.asp.net/web-forms/videos/how-do-i/how-do-i-implement-url-rewriting
http://dotnetguts.blogspot.in/2008/07/url-rewriting-with-urlrewriternet.html
if you are using IIS 7 you can use "rewrite http module", or write your own httpmodule to rewrite the url.
if using iis 6 you can create an isapi.dll by c++ or python or write your own httpmodule to rewrite the url and host it in your web.config
take a look at here
I have an ASP.NET 4 HttpModule (see code below). When the url path starts with "/1.0" I want Cassini/IIS to go to MyService.svc. However, I don't want to show "MyService.svc" to the user (i.e. no update to the url in the browser). I want the user to see "www.something.com/1.0".
I was pretty sure that RewriteUrl isn't supposed to change the browser url, but in my case it does. Any idea why?
public void Init(HttpApplication context)
{
context.BeginRequest +=
delegate
{
HttpContext ctx = HttpContext.Current;
const string BasePath = "~/1.0";
if (path.StartsWith(BasePath, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
{
ctx.RewritePath("~/MyService.svc", "this/is/a/path", string.Empty, false);
}
};
}
P.S. I cannot use ASP.NET Routing because of the period/dot in the Url (see ASP.NET MVC Route IDs with a period).
Looks like you have the same problem as described here:
ASP.NET RewritePath not working as expected / URL in browser changing
Add the trailing slash to the url:
ctx.RewritePath("~/MyService.svc/", "this/is/a/path", string.Empty, false);
Also, I'm not sure if WCF engine would preserve PathInfo for you. Possibly you'll have to pass parameters with the URL as QueryString.
You need url routing of ASP.NET, and it's available since .NET 3.5 SP1.
For your case, I think it's easier to "route" instead of rewriting, and it's simpler to use.
Why? MSDN said this:
In ASP.NET routing, you define URL patterns that contain placeholders
for values that are used when you handle URL requests. At run time,
the pieces of the URL that follow the application name are parsed into
discrete values, based on a URL pattern that you have defined. For
example, in the request for
http://server/application/Products/show/beverages, the routing parser
can pass the values Products, show, and beverages to a handler for the
request. In contrast, in a request that is not managed by URL routing,
the /Products/show/beverages fragment would be interpreted as the path
of a file in the application.
You can also use the URL patterns to programmatically create URLs that
correspond to the routes. This enables you to centralize the logic for
creating hyperlinks in your ASP.NET application.
ASP.NET Routing versus URL Rewriting
ASP.NET routing differs from other URL rewriting schemes. URL
rewriting processes incoming requests by actually changing the URL
before it sends the request to the Web page. For example, an
application that uses URL rewriting might change a URL from
/Products/Widgets/ to /Products.aspx?id=4. Also, URL rewriting
typically does not have an API for creating URLs that are based on
your patterns. In URL rewriting, if you change a URL pattern, you must
manually update all hyperlinks that contain the original URL.
With ASP.NET routing, the URL is not changed when an incoming request
is handled, because routing can extract values from the URL. When you
have to create a URL, you pass parameter values into a method that
generates the URL for you. To change the URL pattern, you change it in
one location, and all the links that you create in the application
that are based on that pattern will automatically use the new pattern.
See ASP.NET Routing in MSDN Library.
I have a Url like this
http://localhost:4737/Site/listing/NH/Plaistow/2831516
and I want it to reroute to
http://localhost:4737/Site/listing.aspx
I was reading how to do this for Web Forms here
https://web.archive.org/web/20211020111718/https://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/012710-1.aspx
Here's what my route looks like.
routes.MapRoute(
"FriendlyUrl",
"Site/listing/{state}/{town}/{mlsnumber}",
"~/Site/listing.aspx");
In my listing page I plan on accessing the following variables
Page.RouteData.Values["state"]
Page.RouteData.Values["town"]
Page.RouteData.Values["mlsnumber"]
But when I navigate to http://localhost:4737/Site/listing/NH/Plaistow/2831516,
I just get a HTTP 404 error.
I know how to get this working with MVC, but this is a fairly large application, all written with web forms, so rewriting isn't feasible.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this would be helpful.
Thanks !
Here is the working code. Thank you to mrchief for helping me resolve this.
routes.MapPageRoute(
"FriendlyUrl",
"listing/{state}/{town}/{mlsnumber}",
"~/listing.aspx");
Yore doing it the other way. If you're using WebForms, you need to implement UrlRoutingModule as shown here: https://web.archive.org/web/20201205221404/https://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/051309-1.aspx
The Routing Rules were designed for use in ASP.Net MVC applications where you redirect a Url to its appropriate Controller (Page in WebForms) with action params (query params in WebFroms parlance).
My goal is to move away from an ISAPI filter that was set up and instead do all the rewriting/routing at the application level.
I have URLs like: product.aspx/2008C20080929.htm
I can correctly route those pages using the following RouteTable.Routes.MapPageRoute:
RouteTable.Routes.MapPageRoute("testRoute", "product.aspx/{page}", "~/routeTest.aspx");
However, some of the other URLS are "encoded", example:
product.aspx/%255COH%255C2008%255C20080929.htm
I am unable to route these pages with the previously stated route. Is this not possible? I'm getting 400 bad requests.
Instead of using URL Routing, I used IIS7's Rewrite Module
