Redirect .aspx page to extensionless page

David Pearson asked on July 21, 2016 21:47

I am trying to set a alias to redirect to the same page but without the extension. The result code is 200 with the url for the page being url + .aspx. I have the Alias redirect set to "Redirect to main URL".

What am I am missing?

Thanks David

David, have you configured allowed extensions for your application under Settings -> URL and SEO?

Friendly URL extensions should be set to ";.aspx" to allow extensionless and aspx.

You may need to include the runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests in the web.config file as well. Should be included in the documentation for setup as well.

I tried both of those on my localhost copy of the site. Had no luck. Here is the line I did for the web.config. modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true" around line 184.

I am running 8.2 with all the patches.
