Redirects not working...any ideas?

Hi guys,

We're using IIS7.

We need to redirect http://www.domain.com/one/two/three/four?addFilter=five&filterValue=six seven

to http://www.domain.com/four/six-seven?showproducts=true

Having problems with the whitespace %20 on URL between six and seven
<rule name="PatternRedirect" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="one/two/three/four.*" />
<conditions trackAllCaptures="true">
<add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern="filterValue=([a-z]+)\s*([a-z]+)" />
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="domain.com$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://domain.com/womens/{C:1}-{C:2}" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>

Tried \s* and [\s*] and (%20|\s*) none seem to work,

Any ideas?

Thanks

If space present in querysting that is wrong one.

Replace
http://www.domain.com/one/two/three/four?addFilter=five&filterValue=six seven

with

http://www.domain.com/one/two/three/four?addFilter=five&filterValue=six&filterValue=seven

Please do refer below link. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5218452/passing-more-then-one-value-with-the-querystring-with-the-same-id

There's no option to change the querying string. These links are out there and therefore we need to work out a way to ccapture six and seven as separate parameters and then use them to redirect to the target/ destination Url as in the above example.

tried to use \s* or %20 but neither seem to work. Any suggestions?

It ended up being the ordering of the patterns. One pattern was kicking in before the other and causing a problem with the redirect. The ordering has now been changed again.

Thanks for your help dude.
