Help - Redirect doesn't work

[Risto]

Hi,

Does anyone have more than 1 url pointing to the same wheels site?

For example, my wheels site is www.abc.com.

I also have www.zzz.com that points to the same site.

I want to do a redirect to www.abc.com if they come in from www.zzz.com.

Here is a snippet.

<cfif CGI.SERVER_NAME is " www.abc.com" >
<!--- don't do anything, stay on the site --->
<cfelse>
<!--- any other domain redirect to www.abc.com --->
<cfif CGI.SERVER_PORT is 80 AND CompareNoCase( CGI.REQUEST_METHOD ,
"get") is 0 >
<!--- <cfheader statuscode="301" statustext="Moved permanently"> --->
<cfif CGI.QUERY_STRING IS NOT "" >
<cfheader name="Location" value="http://www.abc.com/?
#CGI.QUERY_STRING#">
<cfelse>
<cfheader name="Location" value="http:/www.abc.com">
</cfif>
</cfif>

What it redirects to is http://www.zzz.com/www.abc.com/rewrite.cfm

Then I put the code in Onrequeststart and it went to
http://www.zzz.com/www.abc.com,www.abc.com

???

I'm at a loss, I'm hoping I'm not the only one who's ever had more
than one url point to the same site.

I am using URLrewriting on IIS7. Using the default web.config in
wheels.

Thanks


</cfif>

Should you not be using cflocation instead?

cflocation uses the header code for a temporary redirect, which may not be what Risto is after.

have you considered changing the domain for www.zzz.com to forward requests to www.aaa.com instead?

[Per Djurner]

You can use the "statusCode" argument to pass in any code though.

Hi,

We need to append unique tracking code to the urls.

I don't think that can be done with dns.

Thanks for the quick responses

I'd either do what Andy says, or in IIS7 set up www.zzz.com as its own
website and forward all requests to the same page in www.abc.com - I
know how to do this in IIS6.

you can do this from within the iis7 rewriter. here is a blog post
that explains the setup:

Hi,

I'd like to thank everyone for their help.

I ended up using the cflocation with the status code that Per
suggested.

My problem amounted to the fact that this client has close to 50 urls!
Our seo guy want's us to append unique tracking code
depending on which site they come from.

For this reason the IIS redirect and the web.config in the URL rewrite
won't work. But I'm glad you guys told me, because that is
my normal scenario and I will definitely be doing it that way from now
on.

Thanks again.
