  1. POIncorrect Url.Action when URL rewrite is used
    text
    copied!<p>I get an incorrect URL from the <code>Action</code> method when I use a URL rewrite.</p> <p>I have this rewrite rule in web.config:</p> <pre><code>&lt;rule name="Old Objects 2" stopProcessing="true"&gt; &lt;match url="^transportbilar/(nya|begagnade|miljobilar)/(.*)$" ignoreCase="true"/&gt; &lt;action type="Rewrite" url="/transportbilar/{R:2}"/&gt; &lt;/rule&gt; </code></pre> <p>This will rewrite an URL like <code>/transportbilar/nya/fiat/7s76s8dg</code> to <code>/transportbilar/fiat/7s76s8dg</code>, which works fine, but the <code>Url.Action</code> gets confused by this.</p> <p>I use an expression like this to create an URL in the page:</p> <pre><code>url.Action("Slideshow", "Object", new { id = objectId }); </code></pre> <p>When the URL rewrite is not used (browsing directly to the page), this produces the correct URL <code>/Object/Slideshow/7s76s8dg</code>, but when the URL rewrite is used, the <code>Action</code> method adds the first part of the page URL to the generated URL, and produces the incorrect URL <code>/transportbilar/Object/Slideshow/7s76s8dg</code>.</p> <p>I think that I can do a Redirect in the rewrite rule instead, which would circumvent the problem as the requesting URL would change, but is there a way to make it work without changing it to a Redirect?</p> <h3>Edit:</h3> <p>The routes that I think could possibly be relevant are these (added in this order):</p> <pre><code>transportbilar/handlare/{id}/{criteria} transportbilar/handlare transportbilar transportbilar/sokresultat/{criteria} transportbilar/{brand}/{id}/{criteria} {controller}/{action}/{id} </code></pre> <p>The last route would catch the url <code>/Object/Slideshow/7s76s8dg</code> and the second from last would catch <code>/transportbilar/fiat/7s76s8dg</code>.</p>
