I just installed isapi_rewrite on Windows Server 2003, but I cannot get the filter to work.

I ran the automatic install which installs the filter globally, then I went to a test site and placed the httpd.ini file in the root of the site.

I have the following httpd.ini file:
[isapi_rewrite]
RewriteRule /statepage/(.*)\.asp /statepage.asp\?state=$1

The way I understand it http*://www.mysite.com/statepage/State/NY.asp will be served by http*://www.mysite.com/statepage.asp?state=NY with that rule - well, nothing happens.

According to isapi_rewrite site, a httpd.parse.error file should be written if an error occurs - no file is written.

I went to IIS Manager > Web Sites> Mysite > Isapi Filters, and added the filter isapi_rewrite
Still the filter does not work.

Can anyone point me in the right direction - thanks.

Here's what the rule should look like:

[ISAPI_Rewrite]
RewriteRule /statepage/State/([^./]+)\.asp /statepage.asp\?state=$1 [I,L]

And please have the ISAPI_Rewrite filter on the global level only. Please remove it from the site level.
