Redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS on IIS 7 using URL Rewrite 2

[syntax]

From http://www.jppinto.com/2010/03/automati ... write-2-0/

Doc is wrong about using "Redirect URL: https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" though. Using https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI} is better.

-Add blank url rewrite rule under directory you want to start at
- Enter “Redirect to HTTPS” in the name field.
- Next we will configure the first configuration pull down box called “Match URL”, on the right side of “Match URL” press the down arrow to expand the box.

Requested URL: Matches the Pattern
Using: Regular Expressions
Pattern: (.*)

Condition Input: {HTTPS}
Check if input string: Matches the Pattern
Pattern: ^OFF$

Action Type: Redirect
Redirect URL: https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}
Redirect Type: See Other (303)


My resulting web.config:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
            <rules>
                <rule name="Redirect to HTTPS" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
                    <match url="(.*)" />
                    <conditions>
                        <add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="^OFF$" />
                    </conditions>
                    <action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}" redirectType="SeeOther" />
                </rule>
            </rules>
        </rewrite>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>
