 Topic: Bug on url rewriting
Posted: 10 April 2011 at 8:21pm |
Using the latest version and Microsoft IIS7 url rewriting, if a forum name has a number in it, IE:
"Contstruct 2 Public Forum"
The numeric digit seems to cause it to read posts from category ID 2. It works fine if I take the number out.

This is very odd as this forums title has a number in it and is using the IIS 7 Rewrite Module 2.0 for the rewriting.
Will try and replicate the error in the lab.

Have attempted to replicate this in the lab but unable to. Below are the steps that tried to replicate the error:-
1. Web Wiz Forums 9.71
2. Web Wiz URL Rewrite 1.7 (web.config placed in forum root folder)
3. Uninstalled IIS 7 Rewrite Mod 2 then reinstalled using Web Platform Installer to insure the latest version of IIS 7 Rewrite Module is installed.
4. Create a forum called 'Contstruct 2 Public Forum'
5. Created a topic in this forum called '[PLUGIN] Input System v0.96b (21/03/2011): Keyb+Mo' (As the title was over 60 characters long it was truncated)
I then viewed both the forum and the topic and the URL rewriting worked showing the correct URL and page content.
/forum/forum_v9/contstruct-2-public-forum_forum6.html
/forum/forum_v9/plugin-input-system-v096b-21-03-2011-keybmo_topic23.html

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for looking, it's a fresh forum install (latest version), latest version of IIS 7 Rewrite Module, and whatever version of the web wiz url rewrite was on your download page.
There's a chance some of my site wide rewrite rules are interfering with it, but I don't think this is the case but I'll check anyway tonight (I'm using Intelligencia rewrite for those) so I don't know if they are meddling with each other.
Thanks for looking though sorry if I wasted your time and it's my fault, I'll try and find out what's going on
Tom

Quite often rewrite rules in a parent folder will interfere with those in sub folders, as this is quite a common issue with multiple applications on a single website that are using URL Rewriting, even when using different methods.
Try placing your forum in a sub domain so that it runs in a root and see if that solves the issue. If so then you know that another application using URL Rewrite on your website is interfering.
