Hi there,

Wondering if you can help clarify something for me?

Can Isapi Rewrite 2 be used to reverse proxy to an external website not hosted at the same site?

e.g. when I try

RewriteRule /nhsearch(.*) http://search.example.co.uk$1 [I,O,RP,L]

it works and e.g. http://mysite/nhsearch/test.html gets redirected to http://search.example.co.uk/test.html

but when I try it with proxy e.g.

RewriteRule /nhsearch(.*) http://search.example.co.uk$1 [I,O,P,L]

I get 'The requested resource could not be found.'

I have followed all the instructions for the install so things should be set up correctly. Any ideas? Is there anything I may be missing?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply.

We are using the full version and the proxy dll is registered.

I have tried proxying to another site and the same error persists.

Thanks again

Yes the proxy extension is marked as allowed... (rwhelper.dll)

Thanks
