Hi,

I am working on URL rewriting. Everything is working fine with VS 2005 web server. 

The urls look like the following:

http://localhost/Prodcuts/Categories/View.Shirts
http://localhost/Prodcuts/Categories/AddNew.Category

The URL rewriting configuration is as follows

1    <RewriterConfig>
2    <Rules>
3    <RewriterRule>
4    <LookFor>~/Prodcuts/Categories/View.Shirts</LookFor>
5    <SendTo>>~/Pages/Display.aspx?param1=Prodcuts&param2=Categories&mode=View&Type=Shirts</SendTo>
6    </RewriterRule>
7    <RewriterRule>
8    <LookFor>~/Prodcuts/Categories/AddNew.Category</LookFor>
9    <SendTo>>~/Pages/NewForm.aspx?param1=Prodcuts&param2=Categories&mode=New&Type=Category</SendTo>
10   </RewriterRule>
11   </Rules>
12   </RewriterConfig>


So extension will change according to the functionality. I could not figure it out how to configure IIS 5.1 to work with these extension. Please help me. Thank you. 

But when I configured application in IIS it is not working.

 Please help me.

EDIT : nevermind, I think you mean .Shirts or .Category when you talk about extensions, not the parameters -_-;

here is a link to an article that might be interesting: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms972953.aspx
basically, you need to map your custom extensions to the aspnet_isapi.dll and create an httphandler for those.

there's the example of a ".info" extension at the very end. hope that helps ^_^

hi,andy_dev_in.

i encounter a similar situation like your's before though i was not using URL rewriting. i wanted the .pdf file to be processing by asp.net rather than by IIS directly, when using VS 2005 web server, i didn't have to add a application mapping in the web server (i also don't know how to set the VS 2005's built-in web server, i can't find a place to set), the pdf file is processed by asp.net successfully. it seeems ( i am not sure) that the built-in web server has a "built-in" application mapping for pdf file.

but in iis, there is no such built-in application mapping for pdf as welll as .Shirts files and .Category files, so you have to add it yourself. You can add it in IIS, in Home Diectory or virtual Directory\configuration
