Redirect a url to another url in IIS 7.5
The domain name is not part of the URL so you can't match against that. You have to add a condition to match against the HTTP_HOST
variable. if you want any URL on that domain to be redirected, you have to match againt .*
.
E.g. the following is probably what you want:
<rule name="webmail">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" type=”Pattern” pattern="^webmail\.example\.com$">
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="https://mail.example.com:8000" />
</rule>

I have no idea why this isn't working. I've tried creating map rules and then rewritng and redirecting the url. I've tried just redirecting it with a simple rewrite rule and no matter what, the only time I can get it to work is if I set the match url to match this regex .*.
I'm trying to redirect webmail.example.com to mail.example.com. Seemed like it would have taken but a couple seconds; boy was I wrong. I'm thinking I must be doing something wrong with the regex, but I'm not sure what as when I test it it seems to work fine.
<rule name="webmail" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true"> <match url=".*webmail.*" /> <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll" trackAllCaptures="false"> </conditions> <action type="Redirect" url="https://mail.example.com:8000" appendQueryString="false" logRewrittenUrl="true" /> </rule>
Thanks
