    .htm Rewrite

    Trying to get v2 working with 6.14.

    Out of the box it seems .htm does not even hit url tracker which makes sense.

    I add a rewrite rule for .htm in UrlRewriting.config:

    <add name="simbientUrls"
              virtualUrl="^~/(.*)\.htm"
              rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
              destinationUrl="newpath/$1"
              ignoreCase="true" />

    Eg. yoursite/xxxx.htm gets rewritten to yoursite/newpath/xxxx/

    Then I set a 301 tracking from yoursite/newpath/xxxx/ to /new-xxx-article/

    Now when I hit yoursite/xxxx.htm I get a 404 saying yoursite/newpath/xxxx/ does not exist.

    Looking at the log files I can see:

    Incoming Url: yoursite/xxxx.htm

    No match found, logging as 404 not found

    Shouldn't Url Tracker be looking at the re-written Url, not the original?

    I'm not sure if the UrlTracker should be looking at the re-written URL, it's using Request.RawUrl at the moment, which is the non-rewritten URL, because most of the times that's the 'nice' version of a URL.
    Anyway, '.htm' should work and as you can see the xxxx.htm request does hit the UrlTracker:

    Incoming Url: yoursite/xxxx.htm

    That's my point - without the UrlRewriter .config the request doesn't hit the UrlTracker.

    I suppose the real question is - how do I get the UrlTracker to process .htm requests?

    You don't have to do anything, the UrlTracker already processes all requests. The request has to have a 404 status code when the UrlTracker handles it.
    It works fine for me:

    Yeah - there's some other configuration I'm missing.  When I browse .htm I get the .Net 404 page, not the Umbraco 404 page.

    It's like .htm is not even reaching umbraco.

    That's normal AFAIK. I think you're missing this setting in the web.config:

    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true" />

    See this for more info: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11048863/modules-runallmanagedmodulesforallrequests-true-meaning

    If not, please clear the most recent umbraco log file (App_Data\Logs\UmbracoTraceLog.txt) and request the .htm page again, then post the content of the new UmbracoTraceLog.txt file here, so we can have a look together.

    OK - sorry about the delay.

    I have <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">

    I have removed all entries from UrlRewriting.config

    There is nothing in the log file when I browse .htm - it is empty.  I get back:

    The resource cannot be found.

    Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.  Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly. 

    Requested URL: /journal/xxxx.htm

    The Url Tracker is definitely not being hit.

    Ok - it now seems to be working - I was doing this testing on Cassini.

    When I ran locally using IIS, all started working.

     

    thanks

    Ok, that explains. Could you mark this topic as solved? (you can mark your own last reply as 'the answer')
