URLParameter value bug in Intelligencia.UrlRewriter

Question

my rewrite rule is

**<rewriter>

<rewrite url="~/categories/([0-9,A-Z,a-z,-]+)/(.+).aspx" to="~/inventory/product-list.aspx?categorycode=$1" processing="stop"/>

</rewriter>**

it works for url with

/category/abc/abc.aspx

but causes problem with

/category/con/abc.aspx

i dont understand why?

if we pass "con" as url parameter value in any site used by Intelligencia.UrlRewriter. you may find similar problem.

Answer 1

Have researched so much and found an answer.

Actually IIS restricts us from use certain keywords in URL like

COM1-9, LPT1-9, AUX, PRT, NUL, CON

but we can solve this by using following settings in web.config file.

<configuration>
     <system.web>
         <httpRuntime relaxedUrlToFileSystemMapping="true"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

It solved my problem.
