When you say that it's "not working", what do you mean? What happens, and how does that differ from what you expect? Do you get any error message?

You can only use url rewriting in the ASP.NET code if the request is handled by the ASP.NET engine. When you run it locally all requests are handled by the ASP.NET engine, but not on the server. Change the url to one that is handled by the ASP.NET engine, change which extensions are handled by the ASP.NET engine, or use a url rewriting component.

That depends entirely on what component you choose. Instructions for installation and usage will be included with the component.

Im having almost exactly the same issue as this OP. Ive developed a url rewriting "component" of sorts which uses the same method as this poster has decribed HttpContext.RewriteUrl method. When developed on my local machine with the VS web server its working fine. When I upload to Win 2008 Server all that happens is a 404. Its one of those rare cases where "not working" is about as much as you have to go on :| My solution will be to add lots of tracing to the code and enable it on the liove server to determine what is going wrong.

Have you sorted it? Windows 2008 has IIS7.0, right? It needs HttpHandlers and Modules to be configured explicitly.

No ive not sorted it, and ive not got to grips with the intricacy of win 2008 server yet. So thanks for the pointer...i'll check that out now!
