We have a server that is (unfortunately) running Windows. I'd like to change the strings from something like index.php?p=home to /home. I know how to do this on an Apache server, but I'm completely clueless for a Windows server running IIS.
I have a freshly installed 'Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1' VPS with Plesk 11.5.30.When installing certain applications (for example, Dolphin, Elgg), it halts with the following error message: Requirements: Apache module - The app requires the 'rewrite' web server module
When I check in Windows IIS Manager under Modules, I see RewriteModule is installed as a native module.When checking the KB about this issue: URL..it says to enable the rewrite module by ticking it in the 'Configure native modules' box.However, that module is not even listed there, even though it clearly is listed in the main module overview as a native module.
Also, in Plesk > Tools & Settings > Server Management > Panel Components, URL rewrite is also listed: URL Rewrite [Active] IIS URL Rewrite Module 2 7.2.2
we are looking for someone to assist us with configuring the ExpressionEngine CMS on a Windows 2008 server.
We have it runnining under fastCGI that supports php on IIS. We are running IIS7, and using the URL Rewrite Module on IIS7.
We are having a problem removing the index.php from the address bar using the URL Rewrite. It works on the interior pages but not on the homepage and because of this the 404 page is not working.
The mod rewrite module generate a web.config file that has this in it....
I finally bought a VPS after not being able to pay for a dedicated server so I bought one from VPSbyte.com as they came highly recomended $39.95 server with Cpanel not the cheapest I gathered but I wanted reliable servers
now I moved my forum over to the server all was ok after I got the massive database sent over but when I tried to view a thread or category I could not it came back with No Valid input or something like that
I went into admin and disabled zoints SEO mod and the forum works fine BTW its a VB forum.
would it be due to mod rewrite that the forum does not work with zoints? and is it possible to get it to work?
With Windows 2003 server, there are comprehensive lists of what you need to do to secure the server before use. For Windows 2008, I wonder is there such a list? Or is it true as what I heard from Microsoft that it is already secured out of the box?
Anyone has any resources on the hardening or preparation of 2008 for server hosting uses?
I want a user to type myUrl.com/JohnSmith and go to John Smith's homepage. His homepage is actually a dynamic page that is shared with all users which is myUrl.com/Shared.aspx?ID=1234. I have created a URL rewrite script which finds the folder specified (JohnSmith) and finds the user ID from the database. It then displays the Shared.aspx page for the proper ID.
This works on my local machine because it's using Visual Web Developer as the hosting engine so it executes ASP.NET for every page load. When I upload this to an online host using IIS it fails because there is no folder named JohnSmith. I get a 404 online where I would get the proper page on my machine.
I have tried to work with 3 hosts to make this happen and noone can get this to work. I really need to either know what to tell the host to change or find someone who knows how to do this. I am obviously willing to change hosts if that's what it takes.
Actually I am going to use phpprobid system and it has in built function for mod rewrite but I think it is for apache as if i turn it on I cant access pages
I'm facing some issues with hotlinking here. the htaccess do not work because users can still use their download manager to download the file without going to my site.
I've seen few sites that got tempoary url that changes every X times and that support download manager.
When someone types in myforum.com/forums.html I want it to display the main forum (myforum.com) with ...../forums.html in the url bar. But without actually having a forums.html file present on the server. Can this be accomplished with htaccess?
I'd like to use lighttpd on my server but it doesn't support url rewrites for wordpress. I have a VPS running on kloxo and i have 4 clients using WP2.71 with permalinks.
After searching i found something really nice: " Create a file called /etc/lighttpd/wp-rewrite.conf with the following contents:
I'm not even really sure if rewrite is what I need, but basically I have an alias/proxy setup on apache which points mysite.com/itunes/ to mysite2.com/pr/itunes/. My script php executes on the second server, so it assumes that the address should be mysite.com/pr/itunes/. I need to rewrite this to mysite.com/itunes. Here's my code:
RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^itunes/(.*).php$ pr/itunes/(.*).php
i'd like to use a code similar to the one below, to rewrite a sub directory to a subdomain. www.domain.com/aoa/info/ to info.domain.com and then error 301 if someone goes to www.domain.com/aoa/info/ directly
