Hi there,

I have tried numerous different suggestions found in this forum and on the internet to get http://txsleepmedicine.com to redirect to http://www.txsleepmedicine.com. I would like also like to accommodate the possibility of url parameters and other paths leading the ".com".

As I mentioned, I have tried numerous things to no avail. Using the same software I was able to get one of our sites to redirect from www to non-www URL. Please advise.

Thanks in advance!
David

Please try this config:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} ^txsleepmedicine\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)
RewriteRule .? http://www.txsleepmedicine.com%1 [R=301,L]

I'm totally new to ISAPI_Rewrite and I need to do the same thing, redirect traffic from non-www to www.

Do I add the configuration described above on the httpd.conf found on the ISAPI_Rewrite folder? Do I also need a .htaccess file on the root of the web site?

Is there a getting started tutorial? For now I just need to do this non-www to www redirect and I need to know what are the steps I need to take to get this going. I've installed the ISAPI_Rewrite 3.0 on a dev server but from there I'm not sure what's next.

Thank you!

If you need to apply non-www to www rules to all sites on your server you should put them into httpd.conf, if you need that only for a
particular site, please put the rulws into .htaccess in the root of the corresponding site:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} (on)?
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Host} ^(?!www\.)(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)
RewriteRule .? http(?%1s)://www.%2%3 [R=301,L]
