Title: Help with enabling SEO PRO for IIS 5
Post by: xensome on June 10, 2009, 09:25:09

I installed Ionics Isapi Rewrite Filter as per installation instructions,but still get 'Page cannot be found' after enabling SEO PRO.
Installation readme says to place the settings file (IsapiRewrite4.ini) in the same directory as the DLL file(IsapiRewrite4.dll),but I don't quite understand which exactly ini file should I choose.There are a lot of them under 'test' subfolder(each one for it's own case).I guess it should be exactly for Elxis CMS but again I don't know which one.

Thanks a lot.

htaccess will not work on IIS. You need to have the same functionality for IIS with the ISAPI filter as you would do with htaccess and Apache.
IIS is a commercial web server and therefore not officially supported by Elxis. You should consider IIRF manual/help on how to set up URL rewrite.

Note this sample for Joomla, I think it will help you a lot: http://iirf.codeplex.com/Wiki/View.aspx?title=Joomla (http://iirf.codeplex.com/Wiki/View.aspx?title=Joomla)

The syntax of .htaccess and IsapiRewrite4.ini looks quite similar,so I tried to copy/paste default .htaccess that came with elxis into IsapiRewrite4.ini but it doesn't seem to work.See log below.
Can somebody help me out to convert .htaccess into IsapiRewrite4.ini ?

Thanks for all your help.

First make htaccess file smaller. Remove languages you dont need. If you have only one language published you can remove anything language related. Remove the Security rules in the bottom of the file. Remove comments. You will get a smaller and fully functional htaccess file. Then try to make a IIS version of that file.

Here is a sample:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !mylang=[english|greek]{2,}
RewriteRule ^([en]{2})/(.*)$ /index.php?mylang=english [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^([el]{2})/(.*)$ /index.php?mylang=greek [QSA,L]

RewriteRule ^(administrator/|bridges/|cache/|components/|editor/|help/|images/|includes/|language/|mambots/|media/|modules/|templates/|tmpr/) - [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php

You can even use a tiny version like the one bellow to get started:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
