By default in php if looking for site.com it search for site.com/index.php

In Asp.net

if looking for site.com it search for site.com/default.aspx

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

You can set redirects in IIS:

To redirect requests to another Web site or directory

1.	In IIS Manager, expand the local computer, right-click the Web site or directory you want to redirect, and click Properties.
2.	Click the Home Directory, Virtual Directory, or Directory* tab.*
3.	Under The content for this source should come from, click A redirection to a URL.
4.	In the Redirect to* box, type the URL of the destination directory or Web site.*

Or you can remap the .php file to a .aspx page contain follows:

<% Response.Redirect("/"); %>

I'm looking forward for your test result.

Hi,

You can try urlmapping:

<system.web>
<urlMapping enabled="true">
<add mappeduel="~/" url="~/default.php"/>
</urlMapping>
</sytem.web>

Or you can try UrlRewrite by UrlRewrite module:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<configuration>

  <configSections>
    <section name="rewriter" 
             requirePermission="false" 
             type="Intelligencia.UrlRewriter.Configuration.RewriterConfigurationSectionHandler, Intelligencia.UrlRewriter" />
  </configSections>
  
  <system.web>
      
    <httpModules>
      <add name="UrlRewriter" type="Intelligencia.UrlRewriter.RewriterHttpModule, Intelligencia.UrlRewriter" />
    </httpModules>
    
  </system.web>

  <system.webServer>

    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
      <add name="UrlRewriter" type="Intelligencia.UrlRewriter.RewriterHttpModule" />
    </modules>

    <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" />

  </system.webServer>

  <rewriter>
    <rewrite url="~/products/(.+)" to="~/products.aspx?category=$1" />
  </rewriter>
  
</configuration>

For more about UrlRewrite:

I'm looking forward for your reply.

Because the web.config is not the htaccess file.

A 301 redirect in the web.config will only work if the web.config file is accessed. If an ASP.NET page is not requested, then the web.config may not be used.

Why not stick with PHP and a Linux server and use htaccess?
