URL rewriting with IIS6.0

[hasgaard]

Hi,

(sorry for my enflish, i speak french)

We work on a IIS6.0 dedicated server (with plesk), php sripting is allowed.

I want to activate URL rewriting for my websites but i don't know how.... On apache server, i had to modify httpd.conf but on windows.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks

Some URL re-writing on IIS can be done with with host headers, but actually URL rewriting on Apache is much more powerfull so it will help if you specify exactly what you want to re-write.

i want to do url-rewriting to optimize my urls ...for example, to mask the parameters like : www.site.com/index.php?p=3 becomes >> www.site.com/agenda.php

i know that with apache we can do that with an .htaccess file....apache is also installed on our IIS6.0 server, i have configured the httpd.conf but .htaccess don't seem to work...

Have you an idea?

Thank you,

Jo

OK to be honest with you I've never done that, never heard of it on IIS, so in my opinion, no - that can't be done with IIS.

OK so it looks like you can do it with (paid for) third party products.

thank you for your answers, i have downloaded isapi-lite but i must look how it works ....

but can you tell me why the files .htaccess isn't recognized even though apache is installed......

maybe work the .htaccess only on linux? >>the files that begin with dot (.file) are hidden files.

The Apache that comes with Plesk for Windows is ONLY for Plesk Control Panel, not for serving ordinary web sites. IIS is used to serve ordinary web sites on Plesk for Windows. Only since version 7.6 can you "run" the control panel using IIS.
