Has anybody used ISAPI_Rewrite with IIS on 2008? I'm trying to use it with CMSMS for seo friendly urls but it just doesn't seem to work. I think it's setup properly, I followed the instructions.

Hi Byron.

Assuming you are referring to Helicon Tech's ISAPI_Rewrite, I have not used this on IIS7. I tried to set it up once on Windows 2003 with IIS6 and failed too. Instead I use IIRF by CodePlex and this works like a dream (and it's free).

When I come to migrate these sites to IIS7 I'll start by trying Microsoft's URL Rewrite Module which looks pretty good. In fact, I'll add a link to this in the Useful Links forum.

Hope this helps!

P.S. Come back to tell us how you get on and which solution worked for you

I'll give the M$ one a go. Shame they had to release it afterwards as an add-one. Why don't they include these things to start with? Apache has had this functionality for years. Typical M$ to be a few steps behind the rest.
