Re: IIS7 404 handler/URL Rewrite...
Not to be pain on this, but this is something I would like to accomplish today before I leave (last day of contract)...anyone know why the 404_handler.cfm that is specified as the 404 handler in IIS is not executing in IIS7 like it did in IIS6? Is there something ese that needs to be done in 7 that we didn't need to do in 6? Thanks!

Re: IIS7 404 handler/URL Rewrite...
I use URL Rewriting on IIS7 but not with a 404 handler. It seems to me that if you are rewriting in the webserver layer, why would you rewrite to an invalid path? I just specify a regex for the rewrite that says take everything of the form /foo/bar/monkey and rewrite it to /index.cfm?params=foo,bar,monkey and then have index.cfm do all my logic to grab the appropriate content. I also do earlier exclusion rules that makes sure that /images/* , /styles/* etc aren't rewritten and grab content directly.

Re: IIS7 404 handler/URL Rewrite...
you are going to need to create a regular expression that dynamically generates the url's you need based on the oriignal url. If there is not enough data in the original url to do this and you have to use the database then your going to be out of luck I think. Your only other options would be to generate the web.config from your database so it has ALL possible rewrite url's in it.
