I'm testing redirecting websites internally and for some reason it doesn't work. I have site <a href="http://test" rel="ugc">http://test</a>&nbsp;that I need to redirect to <a href="https://othersite" rel="ugc">https://othersite</a>. From what I understand the content of the first website doesn't really matter since it will redirect to the second website anyway...So, when I browse to the initial website, it doesn't redirect to the second one. The connection doesn't break, it just brings up the initial website. <br />
<br />
Here is how I have it setup.<br />
<br />
Thanks a lot!<br />

I'm testing redirecting websites internally and for some reason it doesn't work. I have site http://test that I need to redirect to https://othersite. From what I understand the content of the first website doesn't really matter since it will redirect to the second website anyway...So, when I browse to the initial website, it doesn't redirect to the second one.

IIS 8.5 http redirect not working

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.

Microsoft IIS Web Server

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.

Web Servers

Microsoft applications include a variety of software programs, including development and digital authoring programs (Expression and Media Center), educational programs, Internet software, including Essentials, Skype and the Live family, anti-virus, productivity applications and suites like Office, Excel, Word, Outlook, Access and PowerPoint, video games and server applications such as Exchange, SharePoint, IIS and Virtual Server.
